Yes, It's the great importante for many company to minimise the impact that their products have on the environment ,but it's totally unacceptable for companies to make false claims. Many consumers think that a lot of companies pretended to be green just to charge higher
2. Provide one action we as humans engage in that leads to the extinction of each of these components. Action affecting Lichens = Lichens need nutrients from the air and water to grow, but humans pollute water with chemicals and air with smoke which can effects there growth. Action affecting Trees = Humans are cutting down trees which is leading them to extinction. Action affecting Flowers = Humans are destroying flowers and plants by destroying the land their on by building buildings and growing crops.
Michael Pollan suggests how industrial food system is unsustainable because of monocultures, which means a lot of the same species are grown together and that’s only possible by using antibiotics to keep them alive. To keep crop healthy, fertilizer is needed. For example, in Iowa, all the farms were corn and soybeans, which are for industrial use mainly. Separating the animals from the farms raises a huge sanitation problem and the animals are not happy with the conditions, a pollution problem occurs as well. Society is obsessed with productivity becoming cheap, which has made more problems regarding pesticides.
Although these environmental effects can obviously be issues, most people would probably be wondering what effects they can have on them personally. With that thought, we arrive at the question... IV. How do these environmental effects caused by factory farming effect the human population? A. The pollution or ground water, surface water, and soil effect plants and animals that live in the habitats and also carries E. coli bacteria to areas that can effect humans.
Due to animals consuming more grass than can be produce, the ground becomes scattered leaving the soil exposed to erosion. The NRCS (Natural Resources Conservation Services) has a program to help prevent overgrazing. The program “provides information and support to enable ranchers who own their lands to burn unwanted woody plants, reseed the land with perennial grass varieties that hold water, and manage cattle so that herds are moved to a new location before overgrazing occurs” (Wright & Boorse, 2011, p. 288). If this problem is left untreated, could be a threat to the food chain. Deforestation is when trees and other vegetation is being removed converting the forest to another land use, this exposed the soil and often leads to erosion and loss of soil fertility.
While traditional farming choose to grow organic produce and struggle to keep their businesses alive. In Jeffrey M. Smith book, Genetic Roulette the intro talks about the experements they had with animals and the GMO foods. Many of the animals organs were becoming defecting or mutated over time. After looking at the results, animals that consume the modifications continusly it can lead to serious health risks. In addition the animal’s lifespan was shortened and their offspring a lower chance of survival.
We already solved some of the problem by recycling and composting but there’s still a huge amount of garbage. We can cut don’t our garbage by producing products that can be recyclable or can be put in a green bin. In the future I hope they can invent something that will eliminate garbage for once and for all. The reasons why we should eliminate those things are because our world would be a cleaner place. If we don’t stop Global warming our world is going to die and all the living beings in the world will perish with it.
A Modern Modest Proposal In our world today, we have an ongoing problem with pollution. In the past decades, the pollution caused by our human race has continued to show an impact on our Earth. Every day our beloved planet is getting hurt more and more and this is making it harder for life to be sustained here. Soon, planet Earth could cease to exist and human life as well as all living species could become extinct. I propose that we eat all of the pollution waste, causing all of the waste to disappear from the Earth (logical appeal).
Environmental health Unit 38 P1 Explain how human activity can damages the environment For years now we have been warned about human activity destroying our planet and environment. Some of the things that humans are affecting are Climate Change, Depletion of Ozone Layer, Pollution, Deforestation and Extinction of Species. Overcrowding, urbanisation and population growth Overcrowding can affect our planet more than some people think, Overcrowding means more people this means we use more natural resources this means the earth in the end isn’t going to have enough resources to support the growing population. Remember every person on the planet takes up space which could be used for farmland, and forests. People excrete wastes and litter that flow into water systems, and animal habitats, this is slowly polluting water and killing wildlife.
CCS fitted plants experience reductions in overall efficiency by 8-30% because of ‘energy penalty’. Though consequentially, CCS plants could result in reduced CO2 emissions and improved environmental quality, the efficiency losses in the process leads to elevated use of fossil inputs which in turn results in more fuel extraction, need for more CO2 transport and storage, more particulate pollution (air and water) and landscape destruction and geo-engineering. Thus, there could be significant spin-off effects from an ethical perspective. For instance, need for more fuel extraction shall further reinforce the ethical contestations on the already notorious mining industry. Leakage (slow and abrupt) of CO2 during transport and storage besides posing health risks to humans and local flora and fauna may balance out the net effect of CCS on global warming.
