Analysis: Habitats For Humanity

Decent Essays
The organization that I chose to learn about the most was Habitats for Humanity. I felt that this club was overall the best for me for many reasons. One of the reasons is that it will get me to leave my comfort zone. I’ve never really been one to get extremely uncomfortable in a certain club or organization. This is a good club to start with because it involves a lot of hard work and also getting to see different states; as they go to other states multiple times a year. This will be good for me because I will eventually make more friends in the group and experience different things that I wouldn’t ever get to experience. Habitats for Humanity are a club that isn’t just at Sacred Heart but globally. The main purpose of this club is to

    At first, I was hesitant to join this club, but after the first meeting, I loved it. We took a field trip to volunteer at the Boys and Girls Club of Milwaukee.

    With over seven billion people on this Earth, it is hard to believe there is a job out there for everyone, but there is. People find jobs for almost every interest there could be. From a zookeeper to a lawyer there is nothing wrong with any job as long as the person doing the work is personally satisfied with what they are doing. Some people want a certain job because they think they will make the most money or have to put in the least amount of effort, but when I graduate I want a job that makes me happy and feel like I am making a difference in this world. A career in marine biology will bring the satisfaction of working in a comfortable setting in order to make a contribution to the world.…

    As a possible incoming student, who not only desires to, but needs to learn and attend a favorable campus, the things that I can offer and/or bring are my experiences and skills. I will try to help enrich the campus community as much as I can. Although, my experiences and interests may be easily overlooked by some because of the simple fact that I am “only seventeen,” and that everyone is still continuously evolving. I believe I can still bring something to only help enrich the community. A particular experience that I know differentiates from others is, being Hmong.…

    Introduction What is nature? On the surface, this might appear to be a very simple question, but it is actually very complex.

    In Michael Pollan’s “An Animal’s Place” Pollan provides an argument on whether or not Americans should consume animals, and specifically, if the fashion in which animals are farmed and slaughtered respects their capacity to suffer. Pollan illustrates his personal dilemma particularly when he ironically points his debate on whether or not to eat meat began while he was dining at a steakhouse. To develop his argument, Pollan initially exclusively uses the citation of animal rights activists, but then gradually cites experts that support his conclusion that Americans eat animals as long as the principle behind it is correct, and animals are treated with respect. He asserts to accomplish respecting animals that Americans need to regain their contact…

    In modern times, the western approach towards nature and Life is practical in the sense that it can all be explained by a scientific phenomenon. Due to this mentality, spiritual connections to our roots, nature and Life, are abysmal. To Linda Hogan, writer of Dwellings, this inauspicious approach confirms a detachment from “the treaties once made with [nature]”(11), to which Native Americans dearly hold on to. Throughout Dwellings, Hogan recounts significant experiences that enable her to inch closer to her roots and raise her awareness on the beauties of Life.…

    Ecological design is a major part of our coming future and is necessary for the prosperity of our species as caretakers for the world. Sim Van Der Ryn and Stuart Cowan, in their book Ecological Design, address five principles in design that will help to move society in the right direction. These principles are: solutions from your place, ecological accounting, designing with nature, everyone is a designer, and making nature visible. It has been over the course of the last century that building designers and engineers have neglected the entirety of environmental impacts that went into their buildings. They have built, I believe, from a strictly human perspective with regard only to what the majority wants.…
