relationships that humans share with the environment. Literature of Africa and the Caribbean use an interdisciplinary approach to shed light on different environmental concerns. In a sense, literature gives nature its voice. In this paper, I will outline the importance of the Feminist, Eco-Feminist, Eco-Imagination, Eco-Centric, and Eco-Efficiency. Ecocriticism is “ecologically sensitive creative writing and criticism”. (Okuyade, v) Ecocriticism is literature that explores our physical…
This will hinder the cycle because plastic bottles require many years for decomposition due to their chemical composition. Impacts of Water Bottle Cycle on Biodiversity Water Bottle Cycle is a critical issue on the biodiversity because of its impacts on it. It is obvious that water bottle cycle is the main cause of different pollutions. • Extraction of oil from the Earth causes both water and air pollution • Refinement of oil caused…
news reports from this left-wing political magazine, he seems to draw focus on ecologists, particularly the ecologists who study the direct impact humans have on their environment and vice versa. It is an ecologist’s job to inspect and regulate standards of buildings, businesses, agencies, and other environmental organizations. They seek to protect the environment…
not only to the insects destroying the plants but also to the humans and animals consuming the product. Getting rid of pesticides will not only benefit the environment but also us consumers, as it will lessen the amount of endangered species and reduce the risk of toxins entering the body. It is therefore of great importance that we consider this bill, one to abolish the use of pesticides. Pesticides are harmful to the health of human consumers. To begin with, let’s establish the risks and…
make them. Government is standing back ion its impacts. It helps the people in their works, that’s why this is the group affected by the disruptive technology. c. Impact 3 –A Negative impact Everything in this world, has some advantages in one way and have some negative impact or disadvantages in another way. Unfortunately, disrupted theory is very dangerous of becoming this type of victim of its his success. The biggest and the negative impact of these innovations is that the…
Drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is not only ethically wrong but can also be very harmful to the environment and surrounding communities. The ANWR is a wildlife refuge in Alaska, it includes more than 19 acres of land and is very significant to the National Wildlife Refuge System (defenders.org). Drilling is ethically wrong in this area because it is one of America's last intact and untouched landscape and is home to 45 species of mammals, 42 fish species, and more than 200…
immigrant’s to California were driven by the pursuit of gold and wealth which led to unsustainable relationships which they maintained with their natural environment. Having little knowledge of the natural world, they were all out to exploit the resources: Gold without any sense of its availability and implications of mining to the environment. In this paper, I will dwell into various aspects of how the gold rush shaped the future of California. Colonization of Western North America by…
examine the reasons why global warming is occurring and discuss about the impacts, benefits, limitations and the solutions towards global warming. Causes: The earth's temperature is gradually increasing. Signs are appearing all over, and some of them are unexpected. The heat is not only melting glaciers and sea ice but also shifting the precipitation patterns (rain, snow, sleet and hail) and setting animals on the move. Impacts like Hurricanes and storms are more likely to occur often and…
diversity in freshwater environments by observing invertebrate diversity in riffles and pools in a freshwater stream. It was hypothesized that differences in invertebrate diversity between riffles and pools would be due to physical factors in the environment. To test this hypothesis, invertebrates were collected from each environment and classified by their taxa, and Shannon-Simpson indices were produced from these data to analyze the differences in diversity between the two environments. It was…
sustainability, strong sustainability states that full substitution of natural capital for manufactured capital is not possible in our society. Natural capital has a lot of characteristics that are important to the economic and natural environment. There are limits to humans ability to replace natural capital. One of the major issues with replacement of natural capital for manufactured capital is understanding the marginal and non-marginal changes that can occur. As our ecosystem deals with the…
