there are many debates from education reform‚ finance reform‚ gender and racial equity to genetic engineering and cloning. Many of these issues can be related back to nineteenth-century American literatures. For example‚ the debate over genetic engineering and cloning can be related to Nathaniel Hawthorne’s “The Birthmark”. Genetic engineering and cloning has been a heated debate for a long time. Genetic engineering may work wonders but it is after all a process of manipulating the nature. A similar situation

1) Explain the moral issues involved in Genetic engineering. Genetic engineering is the modification of an organism by changing its genetic material. Genes can be transferred from different organisms and this makes many things possible with genetic engineering. Examples of genetic engineering include taking the insulin gene and using bacteria to create quick and cheap insulin to treat diabetics. Genetic engineering can also be used on food. For example‚ people lacking vitamin A in their diet can

Year round school affects more people than just the people that go to

opinionated editorial that was published challenging the evidence of human-induced climate change. In this article there are numerous lines of evidence that the author claims leans toward the fact that global climate change is manmade. He states that carbon dioxide in our atmosphere has increased over the last 200 years. With this evidence compared to ice cores revealing direct measurements over the last 900 year‚ the increase in temperature stand outs immensely. The temperature increased during

Global Warming And Climate Change – An Issue Over the past ten years global warming and climate change has become an issue. Although is it an issue that people need to be concerned about? I believe that it is something that humans should pay attention to and be concerned about‚ but I feel that we have no impact or control over this issue.

If the temperatures continue to rise‚ the storms can become even more severe because they thrive off of hot temperatures. As the temperatures from global warming continue to cause the pressure that results in monsoon storms continues to rise‚ the more intense the rains and winds will become. As the rains and the winds intensify a number of serious complications can occur. Almost half of the world’s population
