Pros And Cons Of A New National Park

Decent Essays
I think that this new national park in China will have both negative and positive consequences. First, this new park will not only help giant panda’s, it will also help over 8,000 different endangered plants and animals. That can be a tremendous help so we don’t have to add those species to the endangered list too. It is very important to help as many animals as possible. On the other hand, sometimes human involvement can hurt lots of things, and all decisions have pros and cons. Humans may be helping 8,000 different species, but how many are they hurting? This could be very fatal to many animals as well. By helping some animals in a certain area humans are also disrupting the natural balance of a certain ecosystem, so they have to be very

    I believe that changes to living and non -living parts of an ecosystem impact population within the habitat because if you take away or put something into an ecosystem you are affecting everything around you. Especially if you put in or take out a keystone species. Keystone species are animals that other animals rely on and need to grow. So if you take away an animal that everyone relys on you are hurting all the other animals.…

    National Park Rangers have incredibly important jobs when it comes to the health of an environment. Park Rangers have the ability to cause considerable change to an environment in a positive or negative way. The role of the national park ranger is to “protect, conserve, and to provide for the enjoyment of our nation 's heritage” (Maciha). National Park Rangers know better than anyone that the most basic of changes can cause an environment, or more specifically an ecosystem to crumble.

    The Endangered Species Act of 1973 was passed when the U.S. Congress acknowledged that “various species of fish, wildlife, and plants in the United States have been rendered extinct as a consequence of economic growth and development” (“Endangered Species Act of 1973”). This congressional action has made the killing and eradication of any species illegal across the United States and its territories if said species is protected by the U.S. Federal Government. The Endangered Species Act has certainly been effective in the sense that it prevented many species from going extinct, but that does not mean it is above scrutiny or refinement. There are a few ethical flaws which are reflected in the limitations of protection status offered by the Endangered…

    The practice of providing “sanctuary” have roots the middle ages where people seek asylum would go to Church, where they have protection from persecution. In a country that is divided by party lines, and gripped with recent consequences, the word sanctuary has controversies. The Trump Administration has time and time again doubted the effectiveness of progressives’ agenda and turn to methods of deportations, border control, and crackdowns for salvation from the problem. A look into the past, will prove that measures like these will seem good at the time they have been imposed, but down the line will become precedents of terrible acts. One state, California, has passed a bill that effectively turning the state into a Sanctuary State.…

    On the continent of America, there are a myriad of natural wonders, called National Parks, that outshine the rest of the country in terms of beauty.

    Many conservationists and practitioners argue that environmental regulations are crucial to guarantee the sustainability of the Earth’s biological systems as well as the health and wellbeing of people, and that protected areas such as national parks constitute an essential tool in such regulatory toolbox (Kramer et al. 1997; Brandon et al. 1998; Terborgh 1999). Although the preservation of nature, which is the main objective of national parks, has become a worldwide concern, taking into account the local, social, and cultural contexts of neighbouring communities in the planning and management of national parks is increasingly considered a key component for the ultimate success of conservation objectives in national parks (Lusigi 1994; Wells…

    It's important to know that I have been a United States citizen in my entire life, that goes the same for my family as well.

For each panda that a zoo has, it cost them one million dollars per year plus another six hundred thousand dollars every time a cub is born. On top of that, the money that the zoos make annually is not enough to cover the cost of the pandas (Washington Post 2).…

    The Endangered Species Act is the most successful and important conservation act in the United States of America. More than 2,000 plants and animals are protected under this act and 93% of these species have remained stable since they became protected under the ESA. The Endangered Species Act is administered by two federal agencies, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The ESA has helped prevent some of our most beloved creatures from extinction, including the Bald Eagle, Gray Wolf, the Florida Manatee, and the Atlantic Green Sea Turtle. Although the act has been tested by non-conservation supporting lawmakers, the act still remains successful due to its recovery rate and habitat…

    Wild animals are keeping in captivity for different reasons and in different places like zoos, circus and for researches. In my opinion, I am not like animals keeping in captivity for any reason because they are also living things like us. Animals kept in captivity are like a good family outing to some people but for others, it is like an animal is a cell of prison. The discussion of whether or not animals should be held in captivity is one that will not stop. The discussions go both ways.…
