    Future Of Life Chapter 4-5 Summary

    While we currently have a vast knowledge of various animals and plants and what purposes we can use them for, we have to recognize that there are countless other species out there that we have little to no knowledge about that could possibly have beneficial uses. Even the species we have a deep understanding of could surprise us in the future when we have better technology to research them more profoundly. The Author is trying to convey a message about how we are just killing off potential species…

    Stewart Brand The Case For De-Extinction Summary

    I am writing in response to your request that I analyze Stewart Brand's “The Case for De-Extinction: Why We Should Bring Back the Woolly Mammoth” and make a recommendation for or against publication in The Shorthorn. I have considered the rhetorical appeals of Brand’s piece and determined that a large majority of students would find this to be unappealing due to the large amount of Christians, Catholics, Muslims, and other religious groups on campus, so therefore, it should not be published. This topic is very controversial and most likely will not persuade the UTA community in agreeing with Brand’'s viewpoints.…

    Nibert Factory Farm Summary

    We are using animals in such a horrific way that causes negative changes to the environment.We should always think what this world be if we didn’t have the things we have. We would be miserable and everything would be a competition. There’s lots of people out there working to try to make a difference in this world, but also need people to get involved. It fitted into our course goals and objective because it made me realize how much our world is so corrupt. The only thing we could do is change our ways of thinking, so we can actually live in a peaceful and stable society. Not to think, that we could lose everything in an…

    Jurassic Park Argumentative Analysis

    Stuart Pimm offers a degree in Conservation Ecology from Duke University. His Argument focuses largely on humans are not ready for De-Extinction in that since humans were the ones that pushed them to disappear, they are not going to want those species back. He gives the example that “hunters at [the Pyrenean ibex] to extinction. Reintroduce a resurrected ibex to the area where it belongs and it will become the most expensive cabrito every eaten.” He notes that the problem is whether we can resurrect these species or not, but more along the lines of whether the rest of the population will accept the animals back in their original homes. He also believes that De-Extinction “seduces” those granting research money and support into thinking they are doing well when it simply gives “unscrupulous developers a veil to hide their rapaciousness, with promises to fix things later.”…

    Pros And Cons Of Animal Cloning

    “The issue should never be about the extinction of any animal, it should always be about the cruelty and exploitation which will lead to their extinction,” unknown. Each and every animal on earth has as much right to be here as you, me, and of all humanity. Scientists have found a way to clone extinct species. The thought of that sounds amazing and really exciting, but think about it another way. If we bring back no longer existing animals, us humans will do what we do best, which is changing nature and destroying it, basically killing them for money or being greedy for food. According to text “no,” there are already many living things becoming extinct many times faster than normal. Why would we worry about animals who are already long gone when there are many other things that are important to the environment that we need to care about? Another reason why we should not bring them back is because our Earth has changed significantly since they were alive. Having them back would change many things. Lastly, education costs lots of money.…

    No to De Extinction

    Whether it is bringing people back from the dead or resurrecting an entire extinct species, for hundreds of years, scientists everywhere have had the desire and craving to try and reverse nature’s kiss of death. Modern scientists are exploring the possibility of resurrecting species, that we and our ancestors led to extinction, through the process of de-extinction or also known as “resurrection biology”. Scientists believe that this project would not only allow us to redeem our mistakes but also provide breakthroughs in the field of genetic engineering. This concept was first presented to the public in Steven Spielberg’s 1993 film, Jurassic Park that also shows how there are much greater repercussions of this experiment than there could be scientific gains. Even though these projects have purely good intentions, similarly to Frankenstein’s experiment, good intentions of a science experiment, which tampers with life and death, often have a greater chance of going south and causing more danger than benefit. Although astounding scientific breakthroughs may come to be as the result of a successful de-extinction project, there are many greater dangers that could develop for the human race through bringing back certain extinct species. While evolution may be cruel, it is never wrong therefore there was a reason for the species to have gone extinct in the first place and the natural cycle of life and death should not be tampered with artificially.…

    The Sixth Extinction: An Unnatural History

    While one tends to have the general idea as to what’s happening around the world, it isn’t until someone comes around and tells you exactly what’s going on that you become truly aware. This thought was the first to cross my mind while I was reading The Sixth Extinction: An Unnatural History by Elizabeth Kolbert. Before getting into the details of this book review, I would like to preface it by saying that before beginning this class I had an idea of what was happening around the globe. I was not so uninformed as to say that I didn’t know the climate was changing and species were gradually disappearing, but rather I was unaware as to just how quickly this was taking place. I can say that in the back of my mind there has…

    Statement of Qualification: I have taken a few classes in FIU, where the problem why we have so many endangered and extinct species is due to the introduction of species not native that become invasive. This is a problem because the invasive species out-compete the native species for the same resources such as food and habitat. People contribute to many species going extinct as well. They over catch a species and don’t give the species enough time to regenerate its population. These species are caught for varies reasons. To name a few, they are caught for food, decoration, and sometimes because the species is rare and has a lot of worth to it. My professor for both of the classes I took proposed we take these two problems and make it into a solution. Humans over-catch native species. This becomes a problem because they could lead the native species’ population to extinction in that habitat. However, that same problem can become the solution to a different problem. If instead of catching native species people would catch invasive species, it could fix the problem. If people found a way to make…

    Dinosaur Extinction

    For over 150 million years, dinosaurs dominated Earth. They were incredibly successful-so successful in fact that all of the other animal groups had no choice but to play a secondary role in nature. 65 million years ago, however, every species of dinosaur went extinct as well mosasaurs, plesiosaurs, pterosaurs, ammonites, and many families of brachiopods and sea sponges. Also, many shark species as well as most vegetation did not survive(“Dinosaur Extinction”). What could have possibly killed off the dominant animal group of the time? The answer to this question is still unclear but there are many hypotheses that attempt to explain this extinction event. To find out exactly how this happened, evidence must be gathered not only from fossils…

    Analysis Of The World Without Us By Alan Weisman

    In class we learn about invasive species and how they affect the species around them. We can describe humans as invasive species because we are very adaptable and grow quickly. We harm other organisms when we take over their habitat. We are killing off other species and growing. We have not yet learned to live amongst other species, and can only live off of them. This book shows us how much damage we have done to those around us and how the damage can only be completely undone by us simply disappearing forever. Also, in class we learn about biological diversity and why it is important. This book shows us that life would flourish without us, maintaining this biodiversity. We as humans are not helping the cause by killing off thousands of species and taking over their land and food. We are not helping by polluting the environment and making this planet harmful to breathe. We are not helping by contaminating the water with our fertilizer and factory runoff. The World Without Us shows us that there needs to be a change to save the planet and make it a place where everyone can live, not just…
