Human activities threaten the biosphere by overpopulation and releasing chemicals into the air that interfere with natural processes and destroy other species' populations.…
1. P overty and discrimination must be eliminated for all to live enhanced lives with meaningful happiness. 2. A rmed warfare must be eliminated as ways of resolving differences in regional and national needs, be they economic, such as for food and water, political, or cultural. 3. N ew ways must be found to resolve the problems produced by technological advances, including pollution from fuel use and commercial animal production, increasing extinction of plant and animal life, recycling commercially made non-compostable materials, increasing desertification of agricultural land, and increasing loss of fresh water for human consumption. In any event, with our available creativity and cooperation, we humans must create some positive life…
Our world is growing and is causing a list of problems that include deforestation, shortage of resources and the lost of many nature species. People have the necessity to have a home, but they ask for lavish homes, which affect our environment for the sake of cutting trees. Henry David Thoreau living in a small cabin in the woods, and gave us the example that building simple houses helps avoid deforestation. By creating lavish homes people are increasing deforestation by making more land available for housing, when construction companies start to construct they cut all the trees that are invading the place where the house is going to stand. By creating homes near green land, settlers begin producing their own food and starts by cleaning the land to be able to start with agriculture.…
Do you believe that our natural world can come to an end because of our actions and careless attitudes? It is obvious that the global environmental changes are primarily caused by the growing trend of human’s actions and industrial revolution. Unfortunately, these changes are irreversible and directly contribute to the continuous deterioration of our planet. This is the topic that Thomas Friedman (2016) focuses on his article, “We are all Noah now”. In this article “We are all Noah now” Friedman (2016) states that the planet and human’s life are seriously affected by these changes. The author discussed many issues by explaining their sever impact. One major issue humans do is deforestation, where the tree cutting is on rise with diverse consequences…
We put human wants before thinking how it will badly affect the environment. We cut down forests to build houses to live in, buildings to work in, malls to shop in and many other things. By cutting down those forests, we are cutting down the homes of other species because we need the space to build something we, humans, want. We build factories that let out smog in the air to create product we, humans, want or to earn money off of. We seem to think that human life is entirely separate from nature because we don’t see the effects of what we do that harms…
In The Things They Carried, written by Tim O’Brien, there are two brief sections about the acquaintanceship between Lee Strunk and Dave Jensen. The chapter “Enemies” demonstrates this first, it mentions an instance that breaks the wall of trust between the two soldiers. The next chapter, “Friends,” illustrates the two men learning to lean on each other for assurance. Together, “Friends” and “Enemies,” stand to provide an accurate depiction of the foolishness of war. The battlefield is a place where many soldiers find out who their real friends are.…
4. Many activities that human’s part takes in have a negative effect on the environment. People need to become aware of their actions and think about the consequences and how it will have an effect on the world.…
The essays are directed toward people who love and care about Earth and want to see our plant be prosperous for may years to come. Both authors are writing their essays for people to read and to begin to understand that we have to act fast to make sure our planet stays beautiful and able to support life. Ehrlich and Saukko are both worried about the effects of human activity on the environment and what we can do to stop poisoning the Earth and save the glaciers. Both realize the human actions on the environment and the effects they do have on Earth.…
Whether or not an action that affects the natural environment is right or wrong is determined by the consequences it has on the well-being of humans.…
Legitimate political behavior applies to normal everyday politics, as illegitimate political behavior applies to extreme political behavior that violates the implied rules of the game. Betrayal in an organization also known as backstabbing. It’s an act of breaking or violation of trust that creates moral and psychological conflict within a relationship among two parties (“Betrayal”, 2010). There are many factors in this case incident that lead to illegitimate political behavior. This case incident involved Scott Rosen and his colleague, assistant manager of a financial-services company. Scott believed that he was a productive assistant manager until one day he realized that he was being backstabbed by his colleague. He’d observed strange behaviors between his colleague and his manager, also inappropriate and negative comments made by his colleague toward him. Sometimes, his manager and his colleague would have an unusual meeting behind closed doors. On other occasions, his colleague would asked a question that Mr. Rosen wouldn’t know the answer and make an inappropriate comment in the presence of his manager, implied that Mr. Rosen was incompetent and mismanaging his job. Due to the result of such illegitimate political approach, Mr. Rosen was demoted while his colleague was promoted. Shortly after the incident, Mr. Rosen resigned with many questions unanswered (Robbins and Judge, 2007, p. 497).…

As technology proliferates day by day, it has come to our attention to question the relationship between nature and technology. Do the benefits outweigh its consequences on nature? Do we depend on technology too much? Technology is a part of our evolution. It is, therefore a natural process and, it is essential for our civilized lives. However, we haven’t been cautious about the way we use technology. We carelessly spoiled nature’s resources and, disrupt its balance. We jeopardize the future of next generations. Now we ought to change the way we interact with technology and nature by not being as dependent to our existing and limited natural resources and finding new ways to produce renewable energy, stopping pollution and adapting a more eco-friendly lifestyle to save our planet from destruction. Moreover, we must change our attitudes over each other and provide aid to those who suffer from the causes of our interaction with nature to achieve justice in the world and regain our morality.…
Man is an integral part of the environment, yet he is the arch-enemy of it. For centuries man has been thriving on its generosity. But in his quest to make life very simpler and more luxurious,, he has turned a blind eye to the damage caused to the environment. Our greed to get the most out of everything has made us contemptuously neglect the environment, although we all know that our very existence depends on it. A careful analysis of why there are imbalances in the environment will highlight numerous mistakes and aberrations on our parts. After doing so, I reason that there are certain traits in us that have led to the present situation.…
For all the vast complexities of life on earth today, for all the cities and all the machines, the means of supporting life are what they were when man was a wandering hunter and gatherer of food in the original wilderness. Now, as then, everything must come from earth, air and water of which there is perilously little left because we are abusing and squandering them. Man's interdependence with nature is evident. They are the capital upon which life depends, and if we destroy them, they are not renewable. It is easy to forget in a great building of today that life, as always, depends upon the soil hidden and debased below the foundations, and that air is being destroyed by the fumes of our fine cities. Every building means a little less soil, a little less air and water.…
A fringe of life is developed by nature for all living things - including man. All life forms follow nature’s commands except man, who has found ways of ignoring them. The sun, the moon and the stars would have disappeared long ago... had they happened to be within the reach of predatory human hands. A very good morning to one and all. Today I’m here to share my views with you on the topic “when we heal the earth, we heal ourselves.” I have come to believe that the physical destruction of the earth extends to us, too. If we live in an environment that's wounded--where the water is polluted, the air is filled with soot and fumes, the food is contaminated with heavy metals and plastic residues, or the soil is practically dust--it hurts us, chipping away at our health and creating injuries at a physical, psychological, and spiritual level. In degrading the environment, therefore, we degrade ourselves. ... The reverse is also true. In the process of helping the earth to heal, we help ourselves. If we see the earth bleeding from the loss of topsoil, biodiversity, or drought and desertification, and if we help reclaim or save what is lost--for instance, through regeneration of degraded forests--the planet will help us in our self-healing and indeed survival.…
