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
February 13th, 2013 Samantha Hauca Overgrowth or Undergrowth? Recently, it has become widely accepted that our earth is becoming over populated. Countries have been trying to keep their birth rates down with their one-child policy. In the essay, “Health Canada Inadvertently Discloses Facts Planned Parenthood Would Like to Suppress”, Ted Byfield tries to persuade the audience that the world is actually in a serious population decline rather than population explosion, like the government is trying to convince us. Regrettably, Byfield doesn’t give a sturdy case, and with misled facts and statistics, it’s hard to be influenced.
You would think the blood bath that has claimed thousands of innocent seals for centuries would have discontinued by now; however the Canadian government finds it humane and necessary in order to sustain their economy. The article “Sealing the deal” by Deborah Basset presents the argument announced last month that restrictions on exporting seal to China had been lifted. Where as the article “Canada’s harp seal hunt kicks off” by Charmaine Noronha projects the argument depressed prices, a lack of fur buyers, leftover stock and animal rights groups anti-selling campaigns have impacted the industry. Looking at both sides of the Canadian seal hunt debate both authors have valid points on the constant struggle of the barbaric killing of seals.
When Oka declares that in order for them to survive they must cross the cold, high mountains to find food Toklo is delighted. When Tobi suddenly dies while crossing the mountain, Toklo’s mother takes her anger and grief out on him. Leaving him near a river, Oka strands him in the wild. Will Toklo be able to hunt and find food without starving in this strange, inhospitable place? Lusa, her parents, and two other bears are happy living in the “bear bowl” at the zoo, but when a strange new bear is put in a cage nearby, Lusa is anxious to make friends.
In this argument, the author attributes the decline in arctic deer populations to their being unable to follow their age-old migration patterns across the frozen sea. The reason the author provides is that the arctic deer survive by traveling over the frozen sea to find plants on which they feed ,and that recently it is wildly reported that globe warming are causing the ice to melt ,plus at the same time according to reports from local hunters the deer populations are declining. By Examing the line of reasoning through which the author draws his conclusion, we can see several majoy logical fallacies that make it far from convincing. The author provides no evidence to prove the atctic deers’ being unable to follow it but present a fact, if we can say so, that gobal warming trends have caused the sea ice to melt. The reliability of the cited fact is doubtful, let alone the justifiability of the assumption that the Canada’s arctic region where the arctic deer reside has also experienced the sea ice melting.
It kills innocent animals and damages ecosystems for miles and miles. Since it is a concentrated environmental danger, not many know about it. Due to these horrors, Ashley Judd decided to speak out against mountaintop removal at the National Press Club conference in Washington, D.C. in 2010. She is trying to get mountaintop removal on the map alongside pollution and global warming. She has set out to protect her homeland and publicly oppose
Numerous of people look at animal research as dollar signs instead of realizing the heartache that is involved. Due to the millions of dollars made each year by companies it will be hard to end this devastation; but we must never give up. By taking actions and realizing that humans have gone too far with such a selfishness act is the first step to making it a safer world for animals. Every moment spent trying to end this cause is another step closer to saving the precious gift everyone is granted; the beauty of
[Intro.] He stresses the urgency of this problem, a repeated number of times, and challenges the audience to raise awareness throughout the entire film. [Emotion] Gore uses a clip from the series Futurama, to add some humor to the documentary, to help describe to greenhouse effect. He posts a rhetorical question to his audience asking: "You wouldn't want to make a cute, fluffy, polar bear drown now would you? [Logic] Gore discusses the possibility of the collapse of a major ice sheets in Greenland and in West Antarctica, which could raise global sea levels by 20 feet and flood coastal areas.
Humphrey uses logic to play on the fear of nuclear weapons to gain voters. In “Bear,” the use of logic is much weaker than in “Bomb.” Throughout the commercial, it is ambiguous as to who the bear represents because the bear isn’t identified directly, which could confuse the viewer. “Bear” leaves more room for criticism of its message because it isn’t as precise in logic. Towards the end of the commercial, the narrator asks “if there is a bear then shouldn’t we be strong like one?” but it pauses and continues to say “if there is a bear.” Reagan leaves the question out there as to whether there's a threat at all. If there's no threat at all then why would we spend money to be as strong as the Soviets if they're not a threat and why would the viewer be concerned with something that may not even be real?
He writes that the “anti-environmentalists would be laughed out of court if they weren’t tied so closely to the corporate power structure […] At the big conferences of the World Trade Organization, […] conservation almost never gets so much as a hearing. “In the conflict with the environmentalists, their corporate opponent almost always wins because of its ties to business and power. Wilson uses this example to demonstrate that the two groups are constantly at battle rather than finding a way to work together to fit both of their needs. The right wing anti-environmentalists idea of conservation is stocking trout streams and planting trees around golf courses Wilson uses this sarcasm in the passage to once again reveal the inability of the left-and-right winded groups to take the time to hear each others’ views. Instead, the groups are in constant conflict and mockery of each
