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. (38)” The concluding sentence starts a new topic itself and it digresses from the original topic sentence. The essay’s unorganized structure is
No matter how many flyers would be sent out to residences, nor how many commercials announced that pesticide would be sprayed on a particular day there are still citizens that would have been uninformed to what was taking place. The poor citizens that do have television and the uneducated citizens that would not understand what they were reading and the harmful effects that the pesticide would have on them would be the ones typically to be outdoors when the spraying is taking place. The agricultural workers in the fields would be sprayed or would handle fruit or vegetables with the residue from the pesticide and get very ill. Killing the mosquitoes is a short term fix, when in all actuality the city needs to take the money donated and educate the citizens and tourist on how to avoid contracting the West Niles Virus. Educating people how to take care of themselves is a long term solution that will not cause irreparable damage to the
When reading the old Atlantic Monthly article by John Muir; I realized that if we do succeed in saving innocent children we must preserve a world for them to live in. Everyone needs trees to breathe, but the foolish loggers that are destroying trees find it to be fun and get money out of the trees barks and hides (Doc A). John Muir declared the giant redwoods of California can live for 3000 years! (Doc A) When Jesus was born some of the giant redwood trees in the Sierras were already once thousands of years old. These trees and other forests are disappearing.
Eng 122 11/21/2013 Reigniting the Fierce Green Fire “We reached the old wolf in time to watch a fierce green fire dying in her eyes. I realized then, and have known ever since, that there was something new to me in those eyes – something known only to her and to the mountain. I was young then, and full of trigger-itch; I thought that because fewer wolves meant more deer, that no wolves would mean hunters’ paradise. But after seeing the green fire die, I sensed that neither the wolf nor the mountain agreed with such a view.” – Aldo Leopold Hunting is one of the oldest activities (or traditions, if you prefer) that humans participate in. For as long as there have been humans, they have hunted animals as a source of food, clothing, tools,
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
Thus, My Body Is My Own Business expresses that “individuals should not be judged according to gender, beauty, wealth or privilege”, which are all of the things which modern culture uses to judge. Watt-Cloutier draws attention to urban/modern culture’s ignorance of and damage to the Inuit culture. She stresses that global warming is causing a major destruction of the Inuit culture, which is greatly dependent on hunting animals. The animals that are hunted are becoming scarce due to modern culture’s lack of care on environmental impacts - global warming and contaminants are causing arctic animals to die/migrate to northern unreachable places. Though modern/urban culture may ask, “Who needs to hunt anymore”, they don’t understand the
Despite the documentary many Europeans were killed during these massacres as well as Indians. The director not showing the Europeans being killed is a form of selection of detail. This takes away our traditional views of Indians from the old Cowboy and Indian movies where Indians kidnapped women and children and the white people were there savior. When the Europeans settled in America they tried to recreate Britain in this land but the climate, plants and animals were totally different so they were upsetting the natural ecosystem of the land. Whereas this is what the Indians had successfully not done by harvesting only what they need.
From heavy rains, washed out roads, an early snowstorm, and poachers harming the native species being protected within Yellowstone’s boundaries, the park was severely troubled. The resources within the National Park were being exploited by the poachers and it impacted the ecosystem by removing the buffalo and elk. In Jacoby’s, “Crimes against Nature,” the human poachers explained that it was necessary to kill the animals and sell the hides, bones, and meat to keep a roof over their families heads. This relates to the stop on the environmental tour of the woodlots at MSU, because although different situations were occurring the prevalence of exploited natural resources by humans remains constant since the arrival of the Europeans. In order for the animal population as well as Michigan’s forests to regenerate restoration efforts were necessary by humans at both ends of the
Lyric L. Hollar Professor Moore English 1301 April 10, 2014 Lungs Killed- Readers Respond 6 World Wildlife Federation Earth organization provides a picture of a large green field filled with living trees. The shape in the middle of the field looks like a pair of lungs with one side shown as big trees still standing and the other side filled with dirt and trees being cut down. This shows the world that tearing down our trees can hurt our lungs because the lack of oxygen being produced. This picture is telling the earth to recycle more paper used products so that workers do not need to cut down more trees on this planet. If you save the trees then you save millions of human lives.
Horse slaughter is no where near the same as putting a horse down, it is the painful butchering of these innocent animals. The sad part is most horses that are shipped out are still young and would have a good chance of being placed in a loving home. These people just don't want to be bother by a horse they don't need so they shipped it off to a slaughter house to be killed. These horses have no way of getting out of the slaughter house alive, as soon as the horse arrives there you pretty much can say its already dead. Before arriving at the slaughter house horses travel thousands of miles with no food, no water, and no rest over a period of days in overcrowded trucks designed
