The conclusion does not identify with the introductory paragraph. Therefore, readers are not aware of the real purpose of the essay until the conclusion. The conclusion itself should remind readers of the initial argument, not let them now what the argument is about. Another example is found within the second paragraph. Her topic sentence is: “many outfitters will lose revenue from the cancellation of the spring bear hunt.” Yet, her conclusion is: “Groups opposing the spring bear hunt cancellation have also claimed that it infringes on the recreational rights of hunters, and that it has caused in increase in the number of nuisance bears.
During these journeys, many polar bears either drown or get lost. Scientists predict that if the movement of sea ice continues, many bears will drift off to an unsuitable habitat, making it impossible for them to return or survive. Polar bears are already suffering the horrible effects of global warming: bears are drowning, birth rates are falling, and fewer cubs are surviving. If global warming continues polar bears could become extinct by the end of this century (Polar bear SOS). Global warming is the result of greenhouse gases.
The mountain pine beetle epidemic is causing environmental and social impacts to much of British Columbia. Our forests are very important and will no longer be able to maintain their role if changes are not made. The devastation has had a sweeping impact on B.C.’s ecological, and economical well-being. Additionally, recent studies are drawing attention to the carbon-emitting properties of the dead forests, which is a global concern. A popular misconception developed that the current provincial mountain pine beetle epidemic began in Tweedsmuir Provincial Park.
Overpopulation of deer results in lack of food for the deer. The starving animals migrate toward domestic garden crops. Deer are not afraid to roam into suburban neighborhoods if there is evidence of food. It not only ruins homeowner’s crops, but it also places danger on families and their children playing outside. Taylor and Francis state: “Holsworth (1973) reported the results of a controlled hunt on the Griffith Island where the deer population was reduced from about 300 to 100 during eight hunting trips between October 1962 and April 1968 (Taylor and Francis 1).” Hunting provides incomparably healthier meat than the average processed meat.
Actions and measured must be undertaken in order to eliminate these impacts and to return the ecosystem to the natural and balanced state. As we can see the recreational area where the hunting is allowed has a mover diverse and even plant community. Uplifting hunting prohibition and by having a controlled and regulated hunting allowance in the park area could solve the issue of deer overabundance. Another possible measure that could be implemented to realistically eliminate or reduce the overabundance issue is contraceptive treatment of the deer population which would help to decline and regulate the
Basically its the debate of who owns the Arctic. ! The Arctic used to be a boring place with only polar bears and Santa Claus and no one except canada wanted it. Now, due to all the “global warming” as some like to call it many more countries are becoming interested. With less ice, big ships will now be able to travel through the Arctic instead of going around it when importing and exporting things to different countries.
All the Yes points 1.Temperature from history 2.Sea level 3.Weather 4.Because people are losing lives and our climate is changing 5.Many factors involved. All the No points 1.The scale of the problem 2.The need for oil 3.Polar Bears and other species are threatened with extinction 4.Nature will adapt better than we will 5.Kids will have to eat poo Global Warming is not an issue Yes because... No because... Temperature from history If people were able to look at the temperature data for the past 200 years, that data would show that the temperature levels on the planet have always fluctuated. That same data will show that it is human beings who are causing the problem. Pollution
In the last decade the Red Fox population has drastically decreased due the Coyote’s migration East. Coyotes and Red Foxes share similar habitat and diet types. Coyotes are nearly double the size of Red Foxes and have a much more aggressive nature so the competition for prey is not much of a competition. Coyote’s impact on most critters can be predicted easily, expect the White Tail Deer population. Ecologist have yet to anticipate the long-term effect of Coyotes to White Tail Deer.
Throughout the article the author and interviewee assumed the population numbers and made assumptions as to why the numbers are higher or lower than previous years. They state how weather conditions, mortality rates, and surrounding predators all play a huge factor in the population of the moose. They fail to give direct numbers and specific data on some parts of the issues. They do give a brief explanation on how each different environmental circumstance can affect the population, but do not support it was precise data. The author, Joe Albert, does a great job of being a middle man in this article.
The arctic refuge has been looked at for years as a possible place to drill for oil, but was abandoned when the oil market collapsed in the 1980’s. This land is home to many different kinds of animals such as seabirds, caribou, polar bears, and the bowhead whale. (Lavelle p1) Drilling in the refuge causes a major concern against the drilling for oil in the arctic refuge due to the fact that it would disturb the animals and change their natural habitat. It could cause the species to leave the area and settle in unfamiliar territory, which could lead to a decrease in the population of the species. With the area that the animals live in already shrinking, there is no need to shrink the little bit of natural habitat that have left to drill for oil. There is also a major concern of what it would do globally to the permafrost.
