Generation is the act of producing offspring. In kinship terminology, it is a structural term designating the parent-child relationship. It is also known as biogenesis, reproduction, or procreation in the biological sciences. The term is also often used synonymously with cohort in social science; under this formulation the term means "people within a delineated population who experience the same significant events within a given period of time".
A Generator is either any person whose act first creates or produces hazardous waste or it describes an internal combustion unit that produces gas or steam, or that changes mechanical energy into electrical energy.
