The difference between a gardener and a landscape architect is one of size; the size of the land they work with, and the size of their salaries. Well, that and all the extra work. A senior landscape architect did probably once mow the lawn as part of their job, but at the peak of their career they'll be drawing up site plans and cost estimates, and then arranging contracts to deal with work as and where required.
A keen understanding of building materials, planning laws, and labor costs are an absolute must if you're considering a career jump into this role. That's only the foundation, though. You'll also have to have a bachelor's degree in the topic, and at least six years' on-the-job experience before you're likely to be considered for a management position - for which you'll obviously need good people skills, too.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
