1) Introduction:
a)
Survey on the attitudes of the ecological society of America is really important. As the ecologists contribute a lot to the way how human interacts with the nature and stating all the criteria which is causing environmental hazards. The topic is important as it provides the guidelines to have a safe and pollution free environment. The ecologists from different backgrounds interact and provide their knowledge gained in their respective field of study. The reader should care for this research conducted as it is every individual’s responsibility to take care of the society they are living in. Every individual contributing their bit makes a huge difference to the society. For example, the Global warming caused by the release of excessive carbon dioxide in the air is melting the ice caps at the poles which are resulting in the increase of the level of oceans causing floods and other natural calamities across the world. So it is the responsibility of each and every person to care about the research b) The problem / phenomenon which I have selected to explore is the problem which arises when people from different background who come across together and put in different thoughts of theirs to try resolve the problems for the betterment of the environment. Questions of maintaining objectivity on phenomena occurs among different individuals regarding the point of views they share for the betterment of the ecological systems. Some may agree on one’s concerns and some may rule it out. This may lead to questions on the credibility of the survey.

c) The specific aim of the research is to make more and more people involve in the surveys for the betterment of the ecology around us. The more the people participate more they are going to contribute towards the environment and more steps can be taken to overcome the problems that arise. The overall research question that arises is the involvement of the entire individual in the society irrespective of their academic backgrounds to contribute towards the ecological systems.
d)
· The five variables that I have selected for this projects are : 1) What is your age 2) Gender 3) Highest Academic Degree 4) How often do you provide for an environmental cause as a private citizen and 5) How much do you donate for the environmental cause each year
The topics which I selected are relevant to examining the phenomenon’s as follows
· The age of the members of the society plays an important role as it determines that the number of young people have lesser to contribute towards the ecological society. The people between the ages of 50-59 years of age have the maximum contribution towards the survey and we can infer that people between this age group put an effort for the development of the ways in which one can contribute for the betterment of the environment.
· From the survey we can relate that more of the MALE gender of the society has taken keen on participating in the survey. This may also refer to stating that the Male population of the society takes one extra step to try to make the ecological society better.
· The members with the highest academic degree of Ph.D. /MD or equivalent degrees strive to contribute more in their field of expertise. This doesn’t mean that people with other degrees make less contribution but we may infer that the people with Ph.D. or any other equivalent degree work towards the cause.
· The most of the private citizens provide financial support maximum of 1-2 times per year towards the environmental cause. If the private citizens provide more number of financial supports for the environmental cause per year then the society will have all the needed funds to help and improve the environment around them.
· The more the individuals donate for the environmental cause the more the society of ecological society of America can contribute towards the environment. The people should contribute more every year so that they can play their part in keeping the environment better around them.

2) Methods:

a)

The study design in this survey is a variation of random stratified sampling as the survey was conducted for the members of a society.

b) By observing the data from the survey I can say that this is a stratified random sample as it is obtained by dividing the given population into strata and then drawing the probability samples independently from each stratum. The source of data for this survey is the Survey conducted on the attitudes of the ecological society of America in April 2011. The five data variables which I am using in my analysis give an appropriate outcome for the surveys conducted. These variables do infer to the need of participation of the maximum number of people for the betterment of the environment. They also reflect to the group of people with certain level of education who take extra measures for the ecological society.
c)
Apart from the Descriptive statistics that we used in project1 like mean, median ,mode and standard deviations I have also used the summary statistics like skewness and kurtosis along with their errors as those errors could be used to interpret the exact errors present in the data.
Results:

Lionel Messi is one of the best players in the world, but he crossed several challenges before becoming the best.

Don Quixote

...Padre English 110.02 Dr. H 10/24/2012 Don Quixote By Padre Don Quixote, formerly known at Senor quijana from La Mancha is quite possibly the most scrawniest, dimwitted insane “knight” of all times. Don Quixote starts out just fantasizing and reenacting what he has read in the books about noble knights and valiant warriors. Soon this mere fantasizing turns into an actual reality where Don Quixote actually believes that he is to be a brave and romantic knight. Suddenly Don Quixote is changing his name and his horses name so that he might appear more like a knight to those who he might meet on his many conquests. Courageously, Don Quixote sets out to be a knight and to win the love and favor of his lady. Within just a short time of his journey he stops at an inn where he is “knighted” and bravely stands watch over his armor which is most precious to him. When knighted, Don Quixote surely but steadily journeys a bit more and encounters “villains” and “evil people” who in reality are simple human beings who have done nothing wrong. So distorted is his mind that upon seeing windmills he attacks them claiming that all along they are giants who he must defeat. During one of his many antics, Don Quixote attacks the wrong people and they beat, bruise and bury him in his own knightly...
