According to Miguel Gonzalez’s lecture on environment and development, “each inhabitant of the global north consumes 10 times more energy, 19 times more aluminum, 14 times more paper, 13 times more iron & steel; than someone from the south” (Gonzalez, 2016) However, this does not mean that inhabitants of the global south do not contribute to global depletion of natural resources and environmental degradation. As the essay question highlights, both developed and underdeveloped countries create…

Human Manipulations of Genetic Transfer and its Biological Implications For years, humans have been able to manipulate the alleles in animals for favourable traits through the use of selective breeding. But, now that technology has become so advanced, humans have developed a new process of manipulating the gene transfer through transgenesis, where scientists can create new alleles in animals. This essay shows how the selective breeding method and transgenesis method are carried out on the…
