When we hear about Pit Bulls, our society automatically connects “Pit Bull” with vicious, mean, aggressive, fighting and other words along those line. Many people in our society think that pit bulls are the worst breed of dog to own because of their aggressive reputation. Not many people today look at the fact that, just like any other breed, it depends on how they are raised or who their owners are. Everyone says that Pit Bulls are a bad breed and they should be banned, which is why some towns and states have banned pit bulls and any other dogs that are in considered to be an aggressive breed. With the proper training, the right owner, and the right lifestyle a Pit Bull can be as loveable as any dog.…
In the articles “Three Cheers for the Nanny State,” “Ban the Ban!,” and “Soda’s a Problem but…”, all three authors present their arguments with facts, opinions, and counterclaims. However, one article presents itself better than the rest. I believe that the article “Soda’s a Problem, but...” was the most convincing article. Sarah Conly- the author who wrote “Three Cheers for the Nanny State”- argues that the soda restriction is a good idea because people would be stopped from making foolish decisions that they’ll pretty definitely regret.…
To no surprise there has been a great debate about rodeo and the way the livestock are treated. With being in the rodeo myself I have heard harsh opinions countless of times. People think the way animals are treated is considered animal abuse, and with involvement and personal experience in rodeo this is not the case. People think that while the audience of the rodeo is being entertained, animals are physically aggravated to an immoral extent.…
Several decades have passed, and we now know that the reintroduction of the wolves to Yellowstone was an overall success, despite a few mishaps with livestock losses to ranchers and poaching losses to the wolf packs. Over time, the greater fears of the ranchers were proven to be insubstantial, and wolves and humans appear to be living side by side in a guarded sort of harmony. The wolf packs have grown and the…

341,000 Minnesotans struggle everyday to purchase fresh fruits and vegetables due to the lack of access and poverty (Jeremy Olson). This statistic ranks Minnesota the 7th worst food desert in the United States. The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) defines food deserts as “low-income areas where grocery stores and supermarkets that sell fresh produce are over one mile away in urban areas or 10 miles away in rural areas.” Today, there are over 23 million people living in food deserts (Susie Quick). As a society, the number of food deserts needs to decrease because it leads to other health issues, such as obesity, and then can be solved by implementing a program that offers grants for mobile gardens, farmers markets and nutrition classes.…

The majority of school aged children used to walk to school, played more outside, and were more active in sports. This resulted in children burning more calories than school meals provided.…
From zoos, to aquariums, to petting zoos, and even our own pets, humans have always been fascinated by animals, and have gone to certain extents to use them for learning purposes, preservation, survival, companionship, and occasionally entertainment. Menageries allow people to learn about animals from a safe distance and see some animals which they would never have seen if it were not for wildlife parks. Many argue that captive animals are not happy in their environment, and should be set free from zoos in their natural habitat. Although many find captivity cruel and unnecessary, having animals in captivity is beneficial to our society as well as to captive animals because when done right, endangered species are protected and well taken care of, people are able to experience beautiful wildlife,…
