What were the major reasons for the great increase in size of the typical power plant as seen in Fig. 8.10?
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Question 2

Bartlett enunciated a key question (Ref. 11): Can you think of any problem, on any scale, from microscopic to global, whose long-term solution is in any demonstrable way, aided, assisted, or advanced, by having continued population growth at the
 
  local level, the state level, the national level, or globally? Discuss whether this question can be answered, and, if so, how it could be answered.

Answer to Question 1

In addition to innovations in power plant engineering, the utilities were taking
advantage of economies of scale.

Answer to Question 2

I think the question can be answered. Bartlett has made a cogent point here. In the
short term, some solutions can come from growth in population. In the long term, however,
we need to think about the implications of that growth, as I have attempted to do in this
chapter.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
