A Comparative Analysis Of 'Truax Vs. Lorax'

In my view there is a lot we can do for the improvement of the forest such as planting more trees, having government restrictions on companies that are into wood cutting business. The forests we have are one of the most essential sources of resources. There can be places of forests which can be a huge penalty for companies who try to cross the line. A moral responsibility from the side of companies can also be an ideal way as to them planting trees simultaneously or have some donation campaigns running around from which the money generated is used to plant

to switch by making regulations more strict as well as a greater number of them

Decisions regarding environmental problems require both knowledge and values. Placing value on specific issues can be sorted into four categories of justification: utilitarian, ecological, aesthetic and moral. California Blue focuses on the interplay of environmental issues and ethics emphasizing the conflict between industry and species preservation. Timber cutting in the Northwest United States is a mainstay of the economy. Although clear cutting is not as environmentally sensitive as selective harvesting and redwood cutting, some is essential to America's continued growth and prosperity. To ban timber operations and to throw people out of work, all to preserve an endangered blue butterfly, is to test the limits and logic of ecological priorities. The national policy of preserving endangered species serves the purpose of promoting biological diversity, which if not followed might threaten the ecosystem. This national policy of species preservation is a matter of social policy balanced with the competing interests of the local economy and human needs. Under the utilitarian approach one must balance the benefits of species preservation with the detriment of stopping human activity which threatens that species or the environment in which the

The logging Industry in the ‘Truax’ is saying that they are replenishing the trees that they are chopping down and they are helping animals, even if they hurt some animals. They are saying that they aren’t really hurting anything, they are actually helping. The original and ‘The Conservative Lorax’ are inaccurate because they say the the logging industry wants to destroy all of the trees even though, loggers are replanting them.

* The motive of Western based environmental groups. Who’s driving this bus? Is it the competition in the US and Europe from the softwood timber producers?

The Berenstain Bears have decided to enter a spooky old tree with only a light, stick, and a rope. When they believe that they have almost made it through, they awaken the Great Sleeping Bear, so the Berenstain Bears must come up with a quick plan to make it back home safely. The Berenstain Bears and The Spooky Old Tree fits the categories of a good, well-written, and well-illustrated book, as well as, fits into the history of literature.

The Lorax as an environmental study, then we can connect the themes in the story to

It’s been years since the animals, the trees, and the Lorax returned. Everyone worked together to repair the community and shut down all of the factory. Eventually the people and the trees lived in harmony. Thneeds existed once more but the trees were harvested instead of being chopped down.

Aldo Leopold’s idea of land ethics is that “ a thing is right when it tends to preserve the integrity, stability, and beauty of the biotic community. It is wrong when it tends otherwise". In the early 1970’s, a rising concern for the Redwood Forest grew as nearby logging and other human activities started to become a threat to the Redwood National Park by encroaching on its’ boundaries. By 1968, it was estimated that nearly 90 percent of the original redwoods trees had been lost due to logging. Congress stepped into action after several environmental studies showed that the existing redwood trees could be endangered from the rapid deforestation in the surrounding area. The Redwood National Park Expansion Act, amended in 1978; expanded the

To a certain extent, I believe that ecological activists need to be supported , as they create awareness on everything concerning the environment but when they start using violence and hurting others it becomes unethical.Lumbering which is the trade of cutting, preparing and selling timber results in the degradation of forests, the activity is always done through saw mills. The industry should be controlled and regulated to reduce the destruction of forests, and replanting the trees they harvest should be part of the industry so future generations can also enjoy them.

Based on what I have Read, Mr. Leslie Kaufman and the others, has made an excellent point on why it cost so much to make toilet paper, and the reason why no forest should be cut down to make any kind of products. First off in my opinion cutting down trees is a no go for me. We need trees and forests to stay alive, they give off carbon dioxide. Without any trees humans would die, and life as we know it wouldn’t exist. Paper must be made only by one way, and that’s by cutting down a tree(s) and making it into this product. Like what Dr. Allen said, “No Forest of any kind should be used to make toilet paper”. In all I agree with him because, you wouldn’t want to be cutting down a tree to make toilet paper. Although, everyone buys toilet paper

For years upon years companies have wormed their way into the minds of Americans to consume. The companies mask all of the real problems. Many logging companies associated with larger corporations have failed to make Americans aware of the pollution and the increase in toxic gases and waste that is being dispersed every where. All that matters to them is the flow of money that the businesses are

To begin, forest based industrialization is based on forest resources that are used to stimulate economic growth and development. One of the products that have been most important to human economies has always been wood. Wood is durable, light weight, easily worked, waterproof, and a good fiber source. Wood is used in almost every aspect of our lives, for building materials, living, and just surviving. We need wood to build our homes to live in and buildings in which we work and spend the other resource that comes from trees “money”. Studies show that 70% of the products that we use a day are made of some kind of wood. If we were to look around our homes and count all the items that are made of wood we would probably find that 60 percent are made of wood. Without wood humans and other species would never be able to survive.

America has always been a land of opportunity, where a man can cater to the market and make a fortune. None such example is better than the logging industry. In the book “A Walk in the Woods”, writer Bill Bryson examines the impact logging has on tree population of not only the Appalachian Trail (where the story takes place), but throughout the United States. He contributes a mass amount of the damage to the logging industry’s over logging and the mass deforesting to create the roads to the logging sites. As I read the book I became more and more interested in the effects of logging, so I made it my goal was to find to what extent the logging industry and National Forest Services have contributed to deforestation in the U.S.

A chorus of howls echoed maliciously from the tree line. The air was dense with night and the humidity dulled Rainsford’s senses. Wolves, or any other manner of beast could be lurking within the shrubbery, their fangs dripping with blood. He jogged to the nearest tree and shimmied up its thick trunk. A rustle came from his left. “Hoo, Hoo!” Rainsford yelped in surprise as the owl took flight.
