Reflections On Recycling, Pollution And History Or, How To Beat The High Cost Of Living, Richard B. Philp
Richard B. Philp
Lessons learned during the Great Depression and World War II may have to be relearned. The three Rs (reduce, reuse and recycle) were essential then to individual and national survival. A fourth R, repair, was practised as well. These lessons, if relearned, will stand us in good stead when dealing with the current economic climate as well as with problems of pollution and global warming.

The writers describe a program to communicate undergraduate research results to local K–12 students in California. They describe the development of a curriculum and an outreach effort to convey findings of ecological field work undertaken by Pepperdine University students. They then describe program implementation and program benefits.

Nielsen, M. G. (Co-Principal), Rowe, J. J. (Principal), Robinson, J. B. (Co-Principle), Hong, T. (Co-Principal), "Nanoparticle Toxicity Tests in Model Systems," National Science Foundation G07R20573, $400,000.00 (2008 - 2010). We developed and applied multiple models (tissue culture, microbial, organismal) to test the toxicity of nanoparticles. I am responsible for the organismal (Drosophila) model.
