The Dark Side of Our Digital Footprints Cyber bullying is a phenomenon that has spiked enormously in recent years. Cyber bullying is present in nearly every school and every student’s life. According to a poll taken in 2013, 7 in every 10 young people are victims of cyber bullying (par. 2). Logos, pathos, and ethos are used in this article by engaging the reader in the subject. Logos is used when principal Sheninger explains what he has seen firsthand at his high school. Pathos is used when mentioning several real-world examples of cyber bullying and the effects it can have on people. Finally, ethos is used when principal Sheninger builds his credibility by explaining his experience in teaching Internet etiquette to his students. Logos, pathos, and ethos are used in this interview by connecting to the reader in various aspects and persuading the audience to be cautious and aware of their digital footprint.…

Emilio Moran claims that human behavior must be changed in order to improve the condition of our habitat, Earth (Moran 2006: 2). If I needed to build a house, I would adhere to Moran’s beliefs to make my dwelling as energy efficient as possible.

slaves’” (Savoy, 91). Savoy goes on to examine this incomplete history and the motives of the neglecting institutions. For her, the neglected burial ground and avoidance of “slavery” are vestigial traces of the past upon South Carolina’s land and social tendencies.

Savoy successfully melds her assessment of cultural erasure into an anthropocentric ecological conception of…

approach to life offers people affordable housing, the ability to become debt-free or minimize their living expenses, and the opportunity to leave a smaller ecological foot print on the Earth.

generated by humans. Ecological Footprint on the other hand is how much area of biologically productive land and water is required per individual to produce all of the resources it consumes and to absorb the waste it generates. The biocapacity of a region is likely to change over time for many reasons. The first could be a change in climate. The more productive land is, the higher the biocapacity of the area is. With the effects of global warming, this is likely to diminish the biocapacity of…

In Pelletier’s article, “Locavores Dilemma,” each of the appeals is presented and used as Pelletier writes to give focus to weather or not people should be locavores. In this article he focuses his writing on logos because of the use of parentages and facts that are given and used for the reader. He further uses his ethos to describe how he feels about the earth reducing its carbon foot print, and then uses his pathos to show his love for the city. Although Pelletier uses all of the appeals his…

As a person limited with technology experience, I label myself as being a ‘digital immigrant’. I faced the challenge of creating an infographic and I did not understand how to use Piktochart effectively or to create one that is graphic and visually displayed for the ‘digital natives’ who prefer graphics before paper (Prensky,2001).
