Criticism Of Brave New World

The fast rise in the world’s population is one of the many major causes of deforestation. Since the population

Over half of the world’s forests have been destroyed in the last 10,000 years. An extensive fire that destroys a great deal of land or property could be thought to help “benefit” the economic or environmental aspects of daily life, but the society is clueless on the harm it is causing. Nearly half of the Earth's original forest cover has already been lost and each year an additional 32 million acres are destroyed. Our world is facing the greatest extinction crisis since the fall of the dinosaurs, 65 million years ago. The future of many of Earth's plants and animals will be determined within the next few decades. Hopefully, it comes as no great surprise to you that deforestation is a major problem in many areas of the world, both in terms of

During the 1930s, the times of World War II and the Great Depression, Aldous Huxley wrote Brave New World. There were several issues going on in Huxley’s time that are still present in today's world . Huxley features some of these problems in his book, Brave New World. These problems include drug or medicine usage, women and gender inequality, and traditional marriage/homosexuality. Since this book was written during the times of the Great Depression and World War II, these factors also contributed to some of these issues. Since World War II and the Great Depression are over, these do not affect the problems today. Although some of these problems are still a problem in today's world and society, they are not as much of a problem as they were during Huxley's time.

Deforestation is the destruction of a wide area of forest land into a cleared land that is used for a variety of reasons. The impact on the environment from cutting down, burning and damaging forests is very detrimental and there are severe consequences for the environment and future generations because of deforestation. According to the United Nations' Food and Agriculture Organization approximately 7.3 million hectares of forests are being destroyed per year in the world (Bradford, 2015). In this essay, I will explore the impact that deforestation on the environment and I will also look at the actions that are being taken to prevent deforestation. There are various reasons why deforestation is occurring despite its negative effects on the environment. Deforestation can cause very serious environmental problems such as climate change, flooding, loss of habitats as well as others.

Three to six billion trees are cut down each and every year! Deforestation is a huge problem in the rainforests. Because these forests are home to much of the Earth’s species of life. Covering 30 percent of our land forests provide homes, protection, and oxygen for humans and other wildlife in the forests. There are 7.125 billion people that count on the benefits provided by the forest, which is: food, clothing, traditional medicine and shelter. If something isn 't done soon to reduce our carbon footprint, we will not have forests of any type to soak up the carbon dioxide(CO2) in the atmosphere.

The characters in "Brave New World" are all conditioned in their ways. Even John himself has been conditioned. "Brave New World" is set in a future London after horrible wars, the aftermath of which leads the government to condition everyone and everything. Bernard Marx, Helmholtz Watson, and Lenina Crowne have all been conditioned from the time they were in the tube to their current everyday lives. Conditioning never really stops; it just takes different forms. John how was raised by his mother on an Indian reservation in New Mexico, yet he was cast as an outsider because of his DNA. John struggles to be himself in both worlds, he was treated as an outcast because of his DNA and that he was a savage.

Our society has several issues that have yet to be resolved. In the novel Brave New World, the author Aldous Huxley advocates a variety of changes in (relatively) modern society by depicting a dystopian world. Written in 1932, many of the book’s themes are still relevant today.

Brave New World by Aldous Huxley is a book centered around underage sex, substance abuse and lack of morality, a book which is a part of the school's curriculum. Many books with homosexual characters have been banned and challenged around the nation. This is not justified considering some of these books contain no explicit content. Does that mean a book like Brave New World with explicit content is acceptable for high school students to read? Although the dystopian novel shows the dangers of technology becoming highly advanced, nevertheless the uncensored and graphic content in this book is something no student should have to read. The reasons Brave New World should be challenged are banned are immorality, sexually explicit scenes and promotion

Deforestation is clearing Earth's forests, resulting in major damage to the land. This damage is

Helmholtz - Helmholtz is an Alpha Plus, yet not only disagrees with the world he’s stuck in, but dislikes his life. He is bored with women, and all things that should interest him (and do everybody else). He is dissatisfied with the way his writing is used, and believes that he could be writing about much more important things, topics he chooses and enjoys. He finds a friend in Bernard because they share a common disliking of society, however has more legitimate problems with society, whereas Bernard’s complaints are rather childish.

“True to himself” "True to herself", "True to myself". “Individually we all have our own personal image that is dictated by others, one that is always off the mark. We wish to remain true to ourselves, but who gets to decide who we are as people? When our image never goes hand-in-hand with reality, where can we find something unique? Where can we find our true selves?” In the Text of Brave New World John undergoes through his life as an outsider, and struggles to find his identity. He struggles to hold on to his morals and his sense of justice through the events of his lifetime. Meanwhile in the movie Gattaca Vincent was born in the most unfortunate ways. He was presented as a “Faith born” child meaning he was born with no genetic modifications. As a result he was born with genes that were not ideal and included a high probability chance of heart problems. Due to his genetic being tainted, Vincent’s dad didn’t name his son after himself. John and Vincent share some certain traits and experiences in their own point of view of society, family and friends. But they both also share a difference which labels them as an outsider that seeks an end to his life and one with a personality that seeks a successful life.

From 1990 to 2005, deforestation, or the removal of trees, was happening at an average rate of 13 million hectares (32.11 million acres) per year (Hope 247). In many ways, deforestation has been the reason for great economic success which turns people on to the idea even more. Deforestation is an essential element in promoting and encouraging developmental growth. Some places around the world may feel obligated to resort to deforestation due to population increases around the world. The concept of deforestation may seem to have a positive impact on society, but many people fail to consider the importance of replanting the trees that were harvested and removed. Deforestation mainly affects North and South America, but because of the Transamazon

The novel Brave New World was about a young man being introduced to a new society where his mother grew up. The novel gives readers the perspective of how the young man saw and thought of everything around him. Throughout the whole novel readers read about this society’s different ways of life. Without knowing it readers start to judge this societies way of life and start to compare it to their way of life in the present world. While both the novel Brave New World and the present world have different views of love/ marriage, drugs/pharmaceuticals, and life/death each has some similarities.

Our world has had deforestation for a while and worldwide, 32 million acres of forests are cleared each year (“Docksai, 45-51”). While we have trees being cut down, especially in the Amazon in Brazil is also a home to tropical rainforests plants with cancer-fighting compounds (“Balaguer, 14-21”). During the time of October and November of 2013 scientists have found that there has been a 136% increase in deforestation (“Balaguer, 14-21”). The reason why I care so much about deforestation is that trees on earth carry oxygen for us and if there are no more trees and we have an overpopulated world we probably won’t be alive. Another reason why is that the Amazon forests are homes to beautiful animals such as the birds there.

Deforestation is one of the most significant issues of our time; considerable measures must be taken to prevent further pillaging of our unique forest resource.
