Hundreds of years ago in the year 2009 there was a lady
Hundreds of years ago in the year 2009 there was a lady. A smart lady called professor Sonia Ericson who was realising that pollution was destroying the
Environment. Something needed to be done. Professor Sonia Ericson then realised that the only way to save the world was by obtaining seeds from all the trees in the world then put the seeds in a time capsule. She buried them in Ben Nevis Mountain. Now it’s the year 2335 the world is a dead wasteland, the people of the world live in dome cities were oxygen is artificially created .I am Ben Newberry and I have discovered the time capsule after searching the ground and I recon it can save the world. The letter inside the time capsule is in some sort of ancient language or possible code it looks more like some sort of code. The code is finally decoded it reads a message of saving the world; I have found this message so it is up to me to be a hero and to save the world. I shall be remembered in years to come. The decoded message says that the seeds are hidden in Ben Nevis. I must journey to the highlands of Scotland were I shall retrieve the seeds and plant them across the entire world. I shall encounter lots of difficult challenges but I shall overcome them. I have chosen appropriate equipment to tackle the difficulties of this quest. I have decided to take unbreakable rope, salt tablets, radar, sun block cream, night sight binoculars and a compass. These will be useful because the unbreakable rope will be good for climbing and emergencies, salt tablets for dehydration and nutrients, radar for detecting life night sight binoculars for seeing in dark places, compass for direction and sun block cream for the harsh weather conditions to come. These will be excellent for my quest .I have also decided to take animal companions for my quest I have chosen Jangles the cat for his sixth sense for danger so he can detect danger around him. We could also use him for digging out seeds and if we get trapped we can

    In the first two centuries of U.S. history was a widespread environmental destruction. In the 19th century there were four people who played a key role in protecting the environment; Henry Thoreau, John Audubon, George Marsh, and President Theodore Roosevelt. The modern environmental movement was in the 19th century Europe and North America as they exposed the cost of environmental negligence. Rachel Carson a Marie Biologist wrote a book in the 1960’s about the effects of pesticides. This brought public awareness to the effects of pesticides and retractions on the use of pesticides. In the 1960’s the media also started to report environmental incidents to the public. These incidents included the death toll in New York from the pollution in the air, the death of fish and closers of beaches because of the pollution in the water. All of this led up the establishment of the EPA in 1970.…

    In her essay “The Obligation to Endure”, Rachel Carson alerts the public to the dangers of modern industrial pollution. She writes about the harmful consequences of lethal materials being released into the environment. She uses horrifying evidence, a passionate tone, audience, and the overall structure of her essay to express to her readers that the pollution created by man wounds the earth. There are many different ways that pollution can harm the environment, from the nuclear explosions discharging toxic chemicals into the air, to the venomous pesticides sprayed on plants that kills vegetation and sickens cattle. The adjustments to these chemicals would take generations. Rachel Carson explains “…even this, were it by some miracle possible, would be futile, for new chemicals come from our laboratories in an endless stream; almost five hundred annually find their way into actual use in the United states alone” (614).…

    Since the beginning of time environmental changes have affected people, places, and things causing people to migrate or change their ways of living.

This paper will review scientific or technological activities that are exacerbating or improving the existing situation, proper applications of the scientific methods that could have helped the problem, and address alternative solutions beyond the scientific method.…

    When the hands of Time began to move, there was nothing to count the seconds as they passed, save a single oak seed. The oak seed sprouted, and as the shell broke open, a tremendous tree sprang forth. Among the many branches was a single flower bud. When the flower opened, nestled in the center of the petals was the Earth. The Earth ripened and fell from the tree, suspended in the heavens as it is…

    Little lights shine their way down the rugged winding path. Foot steps trudge in front and behind staying close together. Dodging thorns and burs left and right. Ouch!—Every time. Quiet laughs fill the silence as we continue on. Our trek ascends us up a treacherous slope and through a cow pasture carpeted with mines and under a barbed wire fence and down a mile long tractor path that feels like an eternity all with our bags and rifles being persuaded down by gravity. Finally, we make it to where we part ways. Goodbyes and good lucks are exchanged while nerves set in. My father and brother confidently head to their temporary homes in the far distance while I stay idle in the darkness with only a little light as my protection. Taking a deep breath, I too, head to my makeshift home hidden among the trees except mine is a…

    The environmental movement is closely related with the appearance of environmental awareness. Before 1960, very few people knew the term ecology. Environmental concerns were absent in the political and social spheres. However, a groundbreaking book by Rachel Carson, Silent Spring, was published in 1960 and large numbers of people became aware of the consequences of humans’ encroachment upon the nature in terms of the use of highly toxic chemicals like the DDT. Again in this period, various environmental events like oil spills, news about the possible extinction of several species have also helped create an awareness of the issue (Botkin & Keller, 2011, Ch. 1). People were divided into two camps: environmentalists (those having dismal views that life on earth is in peril) and anti- environmentalists (those opposing the environmentalists and saying science and progress are necessary for humans). Today we have overcome this either-or dichotomy and understood that science and progress do not need to be poised against the environment. Environment can be protected while industrialization and progress are maintained. Clean energy, new environmental regulations, and energy-efficiency are belied to help humans protect the nature.…

    Severn Cullis-Suzuki was only 12 years old when she spoke before the UN earth Summit in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, in 1992. A child speaking before adults representing all the countries in the world, yet her speech was anything but childish. It was an astonishing advice and an appeal to everyone to help stop the destruction of the earth’s resources. She spoke of deforestation, chemicals in the air, the waste and greed in our society, and the wanton destruction of animal and plant species that can never be brought back to life again.…

    Women's lives, roles, and statuses changed over various early world history eras and culture areas in many ways. Ancient Persia, Paleolithic, Athens, Mesopotamian and Roman eras were all different in very unique ways. The Paleolithic era treated women fairly and were treated equally. During the Neolithic era women were not treated fairly. She was the daughter of her father or the wife of her husband. Women rarely acted as individuals outside the context of their families. Those who did so were usually royalty or the wives of men who had power and status.” (oi.uchicago.edu, 2010) Athenian women were not treated fairly either almost as if they were not even a citizen. “Laws forbade women and children from participation in political, judicial, and military affairs.”(Mahdavi, 2012) During the Ancient Persian Empire women brought more to their marriage than the men did. They could also divorce their husbands without reason and explanation. The Ancient Persian Empire is when women’s roles really began to change. Women that lived within the Roman Empire were expected to have a guardian because the Romans believe the women were not responsible enough to do things without. Although, women were still considered property, they had more options and rights as a woman.…

    Since the beginnings of the Industrial Age in the mid 19th century, the earth has experienced a very rapid increase in the amount of pollutants in the air and the water, due to emissions from automobiles, factories, chemical plants and other manufacturing methods which use fossil fuels, such as coal and petroleum, to create power. But within the last thirty years or so, the amount of pollution in our air and water has reached what some consider as a tipping point, meaning that pollution is slowly yet surely poisoning not only our air and water but also living environments all over the planet. Many proposals have been put forward concerning ways to decrease pollution and to help slow down global warming, yet the causes and effects of air and…

    As I look out across the white landscape, I try to find a place to go. Right or left, maybe straight, not knowing what to do will kill me. Straight is where I am heading, right into the trees. Once in the trees, I feel more protected. I am dodging around trees, jumping over fallen branches, soaring through the tree filled land like an eagle in the sky. I finally find a game trail and start moving along on it. The snow is packed and easier to travel on. I am running now, hoping to find any sign of humans or a camp site. SNAP! Something…
