Could you imagine a world without humans, mechanical structures, or any other kind of life? According to some scientists and theologists, there will not be a year of 2013, 2014, 2015 and so on. . .or will there? Many scientists are predicting a global apocalypse for the date of December 21, 2012.
Some deem this drastic event as necessary, some say it was cruel and ruthless, while others have yet to form an opinion between if it was entirely bad or essential. The atomic bombs, known as Little Boy and Fat Boy, left devastation all over Japan’s cities, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, when two U.S. planes dropped them from above. The bombs were supposedly intended to end World War II, but yet the morality of the situation is often called into question when seeing the wake of their destruction. With any little bit of knowledge on what happened, one can become aware of the various viewpoints and grasp a new understanding of the material. These perspectives are often put into three categories: the question of “Was it truly Necessary?”, and its counter-argument, along with demolition and effects.
If the U.S were to dismantle its own, other countries would do the same. Countries such as Iran, Pakistan and North Korea, just to name a few, have them because they feel threatened by other nations that have such weapons. This is like a chain reaction, if Venezuela in South America were to develop nuclear weapons; other countries like Brazil would follow. How can the U.S. prohibit other countries such as Iran from developing nuclear weapons when they are spending billions of dollars in the maintaining and developing of them? In conclusion, weapons of mass destruction are the most powerful a country can have.
A natural disaster is an event that occurs due to the environmental factors of the earth. Some forms of natural disaster includes earthquakes, floods, hurricanes and tsunamis. Man-made disasters are hazardous and can occur as a result of a functioning error. Examples of man-made disaster includes gas and nuclear leaks. Even though there are no way to prevent the occurrence of a natural or man-made disaster, emergency preparedness must be in place to deal with a disaster when it occur.
Case study: Does human activity lead to animal extinction? By shamya Sylvester (Ms Bugtti) In this case study I will be answering the question, does human activity lead to animal extinction? I chose this question because I think that it is important that this topic is addressed and people are informed about the effects humans have on the planet. Extinction is the process or event that causes species to die out. There are many different reasons why extinction happens, some of these cause are natural but the majority of them are due to human activity such as deforestation and an increased amount of fossil fuels being used which then leads to global warming.
But it’s also the story of how humans created a weapon capable of wiping our species off the planet. It’s a story with no end in sight… And like it or not you’re in it” (p236) Skeinkin was writing this book to inform us of about the atomic bomb. This is more to make you aware that it still exist and can be deadly if put in the wrong hands. I guess a consent threat to mankind. Dear Steven
2012: Our Impending Apocalypse? “The end is near!” The sky is falling!” “Have you heard the news? December 21, 2012 and that’s it…” to many readers such doomsday talk may sound very familiar. I personally have heard similar things from Turner, my very eccentric neighbor back home in Miami. One may ask, “Where does this belief come from and is it true, is the world really going to end in 2012?” This apocalyptic belief about December 2012 and its many variations can be easily disputed by fact and reason.
The bomb was not humane. In the article “Arguments Against the Bomb” by Michael Barnes, Barnes explains how powerful the atomic bomb is; “Entire families, whole neighborhoods were simply wiped out. The survivors faced radiation sickness, starvation, and crippling mutations”. In this quote, it explains how no human could stand against this bomb. Horrific injuries were inflicted upon everyone in the blast radius, upon women and children, and the lasting effects have still yet to fade.
Because all this will happen after Gog and Magog, when Satan is loosed there will be unsaved upon this Earth during the time of Gog and Magog have their fight with God. The Battle of Gog and Magog is going to be the worst battle that this planet has ever seen. We thought World War I was bad, this battle will be even worse. There will be many more deaths and even more weapons burned for a long time. The thing that we have to remember that this is prophecy and that no one knows when it will happen.
These gases, with carbon dioxide being the main culprit, prevent solar heat from escaping the earth’s atmosphere, resulting in a rise in temperature, or the greenhouse effect. Already scientists around the world are detecting the numerous and dangerous effects of global warming (Johnson 18). Through these different leaks and spills our Canadian environment is slowly being negatively effected. The impacts of global warming on the Canadian environment are immense. Some of these impacts include ice bridges melting, and will have to be replaced with traditional building materials.
