Inadvertently, the human page turner, that fallible and sometimes reviled third party onstage, has been absent from most of Haywoodâs recent performances, a consequence of the wireless age. The advantages are obvious: The iPad is portable, discreet, always well-rested.
He measured the half-life of Carbon-14 to be about 5,568 years. However after about 50,000 years there is so little Carbon-14 left in the specimen that it is very hard, almost impossible, to calculate its age. (Van Der Merwe) Libby ran many tests on items where the age was known, or estimated by other means.
Human emissions of carbon dioxide are small compared to those of natural carbon sources. In 2008, fossil fuel carbon dioxide emissions contributed about 8.7 billions tons of carbon to the atmosphere per year, and this number continues to rise. Land use change was responsible for estimated net emissions of 1.5 billion tons of carbon per year over the last 15 years.
