Throughout Eating Animals, Jonathan Foer illustrates all the different elements that go into the production of animal meat, showing different perspectives and emphasizing on the inhumane aspects. When consuming meats, people do not generally think about where that meat is coming from, but instead how good it tastes. They blind themselves from the diseases that meat could be carrying and the pain in which the animal probably endured, ignoring these facts for the sake of pleasure. Throughout a…

Fondly known as The Quilt, the Australian AIDS Memorial Quilt remains an internationally recognised memorial celebrating the lives of thousands of people who died from AIDS in Australia in the years since 1982, symbolising a nation’s grief, with each panel as unique as the person memorialised, however originally omitting surnames and identifying information. Founded in 1988 by Andrew Carter OAM and Richard Johnson, and launched by Ita Buttrose on World AIDS Day 1988, the Quilt originally…

I will be comparing the book and movie of a monkey’s paw. I think it is very important the we know how to compare things. The same thing in both the movie and the text was the beginning when the son and dad play chess. Then they wait for the sergeant. Next the sergeant tells about how he gained the monkey’s paw. The dad then took the monkey’s paw. In both movie and book, the dad makes a wish for 300 pounds. So therefore the son dies. The dad recieves the money out of the conversation In my…

Pigs are friends, not food. There are many reasons humans should not eat pigs. Pork is one of the few foods certain religions forbid people from eating. For example, Islam forbids people from eating pork because it does more harm than good to your body. Other religions, like Judaism, forbid eating pork because it is seen as an unclean animal. Other people just think pigs are not meant for human consumption, but have many other uses. In regards to health, pork products are high in cholesterol…

I read your “Letter to Guarino Veronese”, and I am interested on your work. Since you found the complete manuscript of Marcus Fabius Quibtilian, you are known as the first rank humanist. May I ask, what led you to find the abused literatures? As a humanist book hunter, you did not allow any loss of literature. Nevertheless, in the libraries, people cannot identify the value of literature, therefore they destroyed them by debasing and defiling. I agree with your thoughts that the destructions of…

conditions,” (CIW). However, there is a distinct conflict of interests: often times the ‘demand side’ is more concerned with progressing financially than morally. This conflict is demonstrated when Smithfield, a meat packing company, attracted Mexican immigrants to work in their factory. However, Smithfield agreed with immigration authorities that 15 immigrant workers could be arrested each day, in order not to impact production (Food, Inc.). Workers are another tool to be wielded in order to…

Gun control has became a bigger impact on today's society mainly because of the shooting in the 1999 Columbine highschool massacre, the 2007 shooting at Virginia Tech, the 2011 Tucson shooting, the 2012 Sandy hook shooting and the 2015 San bernardino shooting. The term gun control is used in the U.S. and means to take action by federal government or state/ local government, for use of buying or selling handguns or any type of weapon by any individual citizens. Gun control should not be a law…

During the winter of 1952, London was affected by a severe air pollution incident. A thick smog settled over the city of London on December 21st, resulting in anguish amongst the residents. This devastating event was a result of large amounts of coal that was being burnt to produce heat, during the winter. As this coal was being combusted for people to keep warm, large proportions of toxic chemicals were simultaneously being released. According to the United Kingdom’s National Weather Service,…

Should factory farming be banned? Yes I believe that factory farming should be banned it just to out of hand to many animals kept in one area for diseases to spread but when farmers look upon it’s not like they see 5 out of the 10,000 chickens having the disease because when you millions of animal that are exactly the same they would all have the disease and it would be unnoticeable because they would all look the same. Factory farming is way overrated I believe I think it’s the most wrong thing…
