Our natural resources are at risk every time fracking occurs. Fracking needs to be banned since it is hurting our health and that it drains our natural and limited resources required for us to sustain life. Water is an essential to living and it is a need. Without it we would be dead from the dehydration. Fracking in this case can contaminate it to where we cannot drink it and if we do it can lead to death or a trip to the hospital:
The present essay is in the reference of the article “The science of shopping” written by Malcolm Gladwell, the famous writer from New Yorker magazine. His appeal to this article was the study of retail anthropology which was acknowledged by Paco Underhill, a psychologist that study environments. Retail stores has an obvious intention- convince and attract a customer as much as they could purchase. If we start to study as a whole there is so much to know about shopping behaviors and the knowledge we can extract upon how the thinking of people’s get affected by an environment. The only reason of Paco Underhill’s success is that he observe those details which usually we do not notice and avoid while conceder to analyze buying and selling.
The last con I am going to present in this paper is the risk to workers in this industry. Accidents in this industry are very possible, and they do occur. They are extremely dangerous, and many people have been injured and some killed from this line of work. I have addressed some of the cons to drilling, but now it’s time for the pros. The United States is dependant on other countries to supply them with oil.
Toxic air pollutants has the ability to form acid rain that can destroy trees, plants, soils and make bodies of water harmful to humans and animals that depend on water to survive. These effects are dangerously threating to humans as society relies on soil to grow food and water to use and drink. As more air pollutions are pumped into the sky, the Earth’s atmosphere trapping heat from air pollutions, this is known as global warming. As the Earth’s average temperature rises, it will have impact on food/water resources,
While in Malcolm Gladwell’s article,”The Science of Shopping”, he shows how retail consultant Paco Underhill’s idea of “retail anthropology,” affect how people shop and the manipulation that can be put on their shopping habits. The shopping experience is heavily affected by the stores that pay attention to how buyers react
In this scene The Lorax shows that corporations are responsible for destroying the environment this is an important environmental
Consumption became part of our culture as well as consumerism. In every consumption of goods, it affects our environment because of the waste of the products that we used. At present, the consumption rate continuously increases which is very alarming. The extravagant desire of consumer has made the current environmental imbalance and these imbalances will cause a huge problem than people await. These imbalances have just caused environmental debacles in places everywhere throughout the world.
In these positions, the duty of the job calls for employees to be exposed to some of the worst circumstances. High risk calls such as responding to and entering a burning home, responding to an active shooter, or emotional taxing calls like responding to the death of a child or a gruesome crime. These incidents are emotionally taxing for the human mind, but it is what emergency service personnel deal with on a regular basis. Due to this exposure, personnel can be negatively impacted by the duties of the job.
Globalization is a massive thing that affects every person on the planet in one way or another. This source raises the argument that globalization is a disease that harms people in more ways then it helps and needs to be stopped before it wipes out the human race. This raises a good point is some ways because globalization does harm humans in many way such as losing jobs due to outsourcing and the people who get the outsourced jobs are put into horrible working conditions and underpaid without benefits. But it also helps in some ways with trade and communication strengthening the relations of countries. I do agree with the source that globalization harms many people but not quite to the extent that the author goes to, I think that
There are many problems that threatens society and one problem in particular, air pollution is a problem that threatens everyone. Air pollution is the contamination of air with pollutants that are harmful to humans, animals, and the environment. It began to be a problem when humans discovered the uses of fire and then the amount of air pollution exponentially grew after the industrial revolution, and is still a problem even today. The largest causes of air pollution are from human activities such as burning of fossil fuels and gas emissions from manufacturing plants. There are ways that ordinary people can help contribute to prevent air pollution and or else face the dangerous consequences of polluted air.
Shopping has become a daily activity that happens in our everyday lives. We cannot imagine how our lives would be affected if shopping was suddenly stopped. Malcolm Gladwell, Stephanie Clifford and Quentin Hardy write articles about two sides of modern day shopping and how consumers have impacted the industry. In order to get an idea across, the authors must persuade the reader as to why their argument is stronger and more efficient, but to do that, they must use various different types of techniques and strategies. The two authors use logos and pathos to persuade the reader that stores and advertisers manipulate shoppers.
In the second article "Fracking Threatens Everyone" it is stated "Fracking remains a dangerous practice that poses a threat even if it is done correctly and is carefully monitored" so it seems that the author wants people to stop Fracking because it generates dangers. It is stated "sources of drinking water can be ruined and all different types of pollution can happen in a second" which poses a great threat to many places. For example, the pollution can enter streams and rivers and kill whatever is in it, and harm even more wildlife. It says "This makes fracking a gamble for communities and individuals who may be tempted by the large amounts of money being offered to those who allow their land to be used for fracking" and the author
Hearing that these people were having to live off of contaminated water due to the chemicals that were inappropriately disposed was no surprise
The toxic chemicals released from extraction were poisoning clean water sources. This lead to increasing cases of cancer, hyperthyroidism, lupus, and renal failure in people located in areas near the present pipeline. These effects clearly show the vast hazard this oil presents for the environment and society. In conclusion, as stated and proven throughout this essay, the Keystone pipeline creates many environmental issues.
Effective marketing is a major facet of any flourishing company. By understanding consumer behaviors, which are a blend of "psychology, sociology, social anthropology, marketing and economics,” companies have the ability to ploy consumers into marketing tactics, to make fortunes off consumers psychological tendencies"” (Dickenson, “Consumer Behavior”). Unfortunately, thoughtless marketing is the least bit of the consumers worries. Selling unnecessarily products, or creating products that aren’t designed to last, are destroying environments in third world countries, a fact rarely noticed by consumers. By selling unnecessary products to consumers, companies are creating an unsustainable amount of waste, filled with all kinds of toxins, while
