    The mangrove swamps can act as shock absorbers, protecting communities from cyclones and storm surges that frequent around India and Bangladesh, such as Cyclone Sidr in 2007, which killed 3,000 people. The mangroves are the first line of defence against the devastating cyclones, able to absorb 30-40% of the total cyclone force, being a vital asset to the poorest in Bangladesh, a country with GDP of only USD$1,900 per capita. Apart from protection, they also play a vital role in the economy, where the diverse biodiversity is able to attract tourists from all over the world. However, the Sundarbans is under threat. The rise of sea level from climate change would lead to 75% of area submerged from a rise of 45cm, while the entire Sundarbans would be inundated and submerged with a rise of 1m, and at current rates of 3mm a year, it would mean the disappearance of 96% of the Sundarbans within half a century. Increasing sea levels also mean that there will be increased salinity of the land and water, with lean river flows that fail to push out the sea water surges inland, trees such as the Sundari tree will continue to suffer from top-dying, where excess saline waters creep into the underground water tables and cause the tree to rot from the top down. Human threats such as poachers and fishing…

    Subsequently, For our first rhetorical analysis assignment, I choose to analyze Bernie Sanders rhetoric during the Democratic National Convention, held on July 25 of 2016. Through the steps laid out in our textbook, I was able to analyze Sanders use of emotion very effectively. An example of my analysis was seen when he addressed the unjust minimum wage. Subsequently, he begins to narrate a heartbreaking story of a single mother trying desperately to take care of her family on minimum wage.

    Mr. Hrabowski began his keynote speech by telling the audience about when he was a young boy and his parents insisted that he go to a church service where a guest pastor was speaking. This guest pastor emphasized the need for the children to participate in a peaceful protest going on, proclaiming, “If the children participate in this peaceful march, America will know even our babies know the difference between right and wrong” (M. King). It was soon revealed that this guest pastor was Martin Luther King Jr. himself. From there Mr. Hrabowski described his experience in the march, his realization that he was not in fact a second hand citizen and that he could do anything he put his mind to. This realization put the strength of change behind him and he pursued his education. Personally, I took away from the speech that he felt that education was the key behind change. In parting words, he left the audience, especially the students, with these words: “Learn to ask questions… learn to listen… and learn to act” (F. Hrabowski).…

    wrote a letter that advocated for equality in a non-violent way. His huge involvement with the Civil Rights movement made his letter explode, although this was the reason he was even in jail. The extreme racism still occurring bothered Martin Luther King JR. especially because it was such a big problem in Birmingham. He goes on to state the reason he was in jail was because of the injustice located in Birmingham. There are four steps to achieve a non-violent campaign. Through these steps promoting your cause can be successful but still have been done in a peaceful way. He goes on to talk about how denying someone the right to vote is ridiculous. Later he talks about how law can seem just until its application, he'd been previously been charged with parading with out a permit, even though it was peaceful. The whole idea of fighting for equality in a peaceful way was one of the many reasons MLK was so highly…

    Martin Luther King Jr.’s protest was unwise and untimely. This is untrue due to the fact that it was necessary to protest peacefully against an unjust law. According to the passage “Letter from Birmingham Jail” in lines 36-38, Dr. Martin Luther King JR. says, “ I cannot sit idly by in Atlanta and not be concerned about what is happening in Birmingham. Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” This proves that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s protest was not unwise and untimely because if injustice is not served it affects everyone and their equality. Also, as it states in the text “Letter from Birmingham Jail” in lines 141-145 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. says, “For years now I have heard the word “wait!” It rings in the ear of every Negro with parsing familiarity. This “wait” has almost always meant “never.” We must come to see, with one of our distinguished jurists that “Justice long delayed is justice denied.” This also proves that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s protest was not unwise and untimely, because by justice being denied it made African Americans take action into leading a peaceful protest against racism and discrimination. Also in the passage “Speech at the March on Washington” society believed that it was normal to discriminate against African Americans. Despite what society believe it is iniquitous to discriminate a person because of their race. Furthermore, as it sates in…

    Tropical revolving storms have a marked influence on the areas they consume. Whether it’s at the point of striking (our primary effects) or the secondary factors days/months/years afterwards: they impact on the social, environmental and economic stature of an area. This is evident when comparing two of the most notable tropical revolving storms in the last decade. Hurricane Katrina hit the MEDC coast of Louisiana and the Mississippi in the form of a category 5 storm and the category 4 cyclone Nargis hit the LEDC nation, Burma, particularly the Irrawaddy delta. Despite similar magnitudes the impacts of these two tropical revolving storms varied-…

    During the Civil Rights movements, non-violence protest is a method used by African Americans to advocate for desegregation. However, these protests were initially not accepted by many whites. In 1963, while Martin Luther King was arrested in the Birmingham jail because he supported a protest in Birmingham, eight Alabama clergymen published a statement accusing the non-violence protest for disturbing order, showing untimely impatience and inciting violence. Since the clergymen believed desegregation should be achieved through the deliberation of time and with conventional processes, Martin Luther King wrote a letter to convince them that blacks should not wait passively to be wholeheartedly accepted by the white moderate.…

    All communities - urban or rural - are vulnerable to most hazards. However, different regions will be more prone to certain types of hazards than others. Floods and windstorms are the hazards that most frequently lead to disasters in Asia, the Pacific, Europe and North America, while it is droughts and epidemics that are reported in African countries. In contrast, Pacific and Caribbean islands are most vulnerable to the effects of tropical cyclones. El Niño events, floods, volcanic eruptions and earthquakes affect in greater degree the Andean and Meso-American countries. Even within a specific region, such as the Pacific, the frequency and intensity of specific hazards varies from one country to another. Hydrometeorological hazards are most common and floods alone account for two-thirds of people affected by natural hazards…

    Colin Kaepernick chose this method of protesting because he knew it would cause a reaction on both sides of the argument, not because he is un-American or hates the troops. Therefore, the dispute over unpatriotism can be rendered a moot point. In addition, the idea that peaceful protesting is ineffective can be argued against with one name: Martin Luther King, Jr. His instillment of civil disobedience is one that can not be understated. In his “Letter from a Birmingham Jail”, he stated that he understood if violence was needed to get a point across, but it should never be the first choice. Boycotts, sit-ins, and marches became a defining symbol for MLK, and since they were not violent, any argument against this protesting was unconstitutional by the right to assemble in the First Amendment. Rosa Parks is another example of when methods of non-violence sparked a movement, all resulting from her refusing to give up her seat on the bus. Malcolm X and Huey Newton would disagree with peacefully protesting, but their methods that encouraged physical violence should have been a last resort. The only tactic that should be exercised is civil disobedience; the art of respectfully…
