After calving, it takes 60 to 90 days for cows to resume cycles. This period is called postpartum anestrous. In first calf heifers, postpartum anestrous lasts longer than mature cows. It normally takes 90 to 120 days for first calf heifers to resume cycles.
The Story of Bottled Water. The Story of Bottled Water, released on March 22, 2010 (World Water Day), employs the Story of Stuff style to tell the story of manufactured demandâhow you get Americans to buy more than half a billion bottles of water every week when it already flows virtually free from the tap.
Depends on how you look at it. Not too many of those plastic bottles end up getting recycled and nearly none of them will biodegrade. Initially it was specifically mineral water that was bottled for its alleged health benefits in the 1700s. It is unclear exactly when, but in the early 1900s, soda water became popular. It was not until fairly recently that we began bottling water in plastic bottles and the plastic bottle reached its popularity in the 200s. For most of history, glass was the packaging of choice. Even beyond the disposal of the bottle itself, bottled water is bad news.
