We have found during this time of Covid-19 that we are using technology even more that we have in the past.
Did you know that historically the Virgin Islands have been in the forefront of technology use in the Caribbean?
Your assignment is to write a three page typewritten paper (1 inch margins, 12 font, pictures should not be
within the 3 pages.) discussing at least two telegraph companies that were located in the Territory, the location
of their facilities, which countries the telegraph companies directly connect to and any challenges they may
have faced. Also include in your paper in what major world event was this Virgin Islands based communication
used, and how. Finally there were individuals born on St. Thomas that were instrumental in the creation of the
global communication industry.
Sample Solution
Every winter, millions of birds fly down the Mississippi and Central flyways, on their way to warmer temperatures across the Gulf of Mexico. Ducks, geese, and other waterfowl rely on the Deltaâs food-rich habitats, whether it be preparing for the 600-mile journey across the Gulf in the fall or recuperating after the flight back north in the spring. Therefore, the destruction of the Delta doesnât only affect its yearlong residents; waterfowl hunters as far north as Canada feel the effects of the Paradiseâs degradation. The entire North American duck hunting community relies on the Mississippi River Delta, as it vanishes before our blind eyes. The spotted sea trout, commonly known as the speckled trout, is arguably the most widely sought after aquatic species that inhabits the Delta. Even though the speckled trout is a migrating species, they crowd the warm, shallow channels during the spring and summer, feeding on anything from shrimp to mullet. The National Wildlife Federation (NWF) defines the maximum length of speckled trout at 25 inches, but Iâve witnessed three over 30 inches. All three were released, purely out of respect. Due to decades of mismanagement, along with damaging hurricanes and the 2010 Gulf oil spill, coastal Louisiana is disappearing at a rate of one football field every>
