1. Explain how the ecosystem was affected by the missing species for each round of the demonstration. a. Round 1 = Removing the trees from the ecosystem then flowers and plants wouldn’t get shade and wind protection. b.
It is wrong when it tends otherwise." He supports the idea from two perspectives. First from the utilitarian point of view, he explains that not attempting to conserve wild species jeopardizes resources that humans depend on. The second view, the bio centric position, he emphasizes that wild species have an 'inherent right to exist. I think that to him there are just no other options and he does not want readers to begin to consider not intervening in the lives of wild animals in order to conserve them.
Question 1: What is a Brownfield site? Any land which was previously used, but is not used now-the land must be vacant, derelict or contaminated-quite often the land must be decontaminated and restored before being re-used. Question 2: what is a Greenfield site? It’s a land that has never been built on. Question 3: Describe the term sustainability Making sure that whatever we do to the environment now does not damage it beyond repair for the future.
They are against illegal border crossing because they do not know what it is not having any food, clothes, house, or money to survive. These patrollers won’t stop their mission to protect our borders, because they feel like this country will be a better place to live if the government takes all the illegal immigrants out. For me as an American resident raised in Peru, I have struggled though life. I know what it is to not have money. That is why I came to this country looking for new horizons.
The building of the Supercenter would also hurt the environment, by taking away multiple acres of farmland to build on. The Supercenter would not want the crops of the local farmers, because the prices would be too high to keep the prices low. This is why the Supercenter would be a bad fit in the small rural town of
He says that if our goal was to preserve the world we were born into, we have failed. Instead we should focus on changing what we have done and it is no use in pretending that it has come to this point. If we don’t curb carbon emissions into the
Yet I think the worst part is the natural resources like trees that will be cut down to make room for the machinery and drilling as many of those have been there for years. Along with the trees and forest come the wildlife animals that have their home in the forest and depend on trees to survive. All these not to include the pollution that comes from all these machines and work that will be done in the
Were we to become extinct, their domesticates would most likely not survive. These would include pets, livestock, and crop plants. Species whose populations would likely grow would be the ones human activities have had a detrimental effect on, such as whales, mountain gorillas, and the many weeds we struggle to keep in check. 7. How would you respond to someone who tells you: (a) that he or she does not believe in biological evolution by natural selection because it is “just a theory,” and (b) that we should not worry about air pollution because natural selection will enable humans to develop lungs that can detoxify
Although the drug soma is used to keep everyone happy and prevents rebellion, the State should not take away family, love and most importantly take way their free will. In the book Brave New World, the subject universal happiness comes into play throughout the story. The State thinks that in order to maintain its stability, they make sure that all its citizens get exactly what they want all the time. In other words, the State is designed to make people happy. According to Tom Stewart, this universal "happiness" is achieved in three ways: “The first is, the State uses biological science and psychological conditioning to make sure that each citizen is not only suited to its job but actually prefers that role to anything else.
Huxley demonstrates how in mankind’s attempt to achieve a utopia, values such as freedom and nature may be given up, creating a ‘nightmarish’ world instead. “A love of nature keeps no factories busy. It was decided to abolish the love of nature.” Through the use of ridicule on how humanity tends to destroy all potential problems as opposed to actually facing them, Huxley displays that if humans continue this trend, then during mankind’s pursuit for a perfect world, nature as a whole may be completely destroyed, as it doesn’t aid the advance of society technologically. Furthermore, Huxley implicates that in order for society to achieve ‘absolute harmony’; one of the major sacrifices that must be made, is out freedom. “We also predestine and condition.” The words “predestine” and “condition” invokes feelings in the reader that lives are being controlled, and that decisions in the world are non-flexible and choices has been relinquished by
