Do you remember the old advertisement from the 80’s, of Smokey Bear who insisted that only YOU

Modern humans today have the option to go to their local grocery stores for food and water. However, that is not case with early humans, to survive they had to hunt, or gather their food. Harsh climate changes could cause a scarce food supply. Without any food to hunt or find, the small groups were forced to move. Early humans would eventually overcome some of these obstacles, by learning how to make simple tools. One of the biggest discoveries was how to start a fire (Wilkinson, 16). Harsh climates soon became bearable with the aid of fire. Approximately 120,000 years

Between 1865 and 1920, industrialization caused significant changes in many people’s lives. First, the development of a new railroad system help settle the west and made it more accessible to people. Second, public transit systems in big cities provided an outlet from congested cities. Last, the discovery of a method for transmitting electricity helped to light up our daily lives. I feel that these are three of the most important changes in people’s lives caused by industrialization.

The more people there were the more discovery man made during this time. The invention of agriculture led to the settled life. Since man no longer needed to roam, all they had to do was put a seed in the ground and watch it grow. Tool and weaponry became more advanced, and pottery and the potters wheel was invented.

Unlike Paleolithic time's, man could have more leisure time to spend. This led him to broaden the society he was living in and led to increased populations in the Neolithic Age.

4. Humans used fire to ward off predators, adapt to colder climates, and to assist in hunting and gathering. Other technologies included stone tools which were used for both hunting and protection.

New technologies improved agricultural and industrial productivity. Growing cities provided markets and workers for industrial businesses. Products were allowed to reach distant markets because of improved railroad

Another problem that we may stumble upon would be relying on other people to be ecologically responsible instead of ourselves. We often believe that there are other people out there in the world who are making a difference and so we passively sit back and do nothing. However, we are all accountable for our own actions. Palmer (2015) is a man who worked around the world with people from every major religion from Daoism to Zoroastrianism. He has witnessed many religious environmental movements emerge and grow. He states that the basis of the environmental

In the early 19th century rural worker produced their own goods and were very self sufficient. Farm families grew their own crops and raised their own animals and made their own clothing, candles, and soap. They would sell those products at markets for money to buy certain products that couldn't be produced on their own. By the middle of the 19th century, America, especially in the Northeast, became more industrialized. This spurred on a Market Revolution. People were buying and selling goods instead of making it for personal use. This caused big changes in not only the US economy, but in the daily lives of Americans. The incomes of everyday Americans rose as goods and services grew. Inventions such as the textile mill and interchangeable parts played a huge role in the improvements and growth of factories in the North. Interchangeable parts allowed mass production and strengthened industry. With the Market Revolution came an Economic Revolution. This impacted communication as well as transportation. The telegraph, invented in 1837, allowed instantaneous communication and railroads allowed safe, reliable, and quick transportation. Water transportation, such as steamboats and canals, made it easier to move heavy machinery and raw materials. The building of canals and railroads required a large amount of workers. The labor demand grew which caused many immigrants to come to America for new opportunities to make a living. The investment in canals and railroads also turned the Northeast into the center of commerce in America, and after opening the Eerie Canal, New York City became the main link between agriculture in America and European markets. The improvements in transportation and communication aided in allowing Americans in different regions to keep in touch in addition to creating interdependencies and markets.

In chapter four of his book “Barbarian Virtues,” Matthew Frye Jacobson connects the theories and beliefs used to interpret relationships to the development of humans over time. He states that scholarly methods in academics have been used to systematically rank different groups of people. Jacobson discusses many academic disciplines used in these theories such as, anthropology, genetics, biology, psychology, and linguistics. Throughout this chapter, Jacobson divides his research into three categories: cultures, genes, and minds. Together these theories of human development highlight the superiority and inferiority conflict between races in nineteenth

The Industrial Age was an era of great change for the United States. It had both positive and negative affects on many Americans, depending on their economical status. Overall, the rise of industry was good for the United States. For instance, inventions such as steel from Henry Bessemer “became important in the formation of our nation”. It gave rise to railroads for transportation and also helped expand trade between the East and the West. It brought goods from the farmers to the markets. Steel also gave rise to better farming machinery, skyscrapers and structures such as the Brooklyn Bridge. Other new inventions arose from this Industrial Era such as the sewing machine and the typewriter. This gave rise to many new jobs for women and children,

Smokey Bear is America’s wildlife prevention icon. Before Smokey was introduced people didn’t understand their role in preventing human-caused wildfires? Many people were careless when throwing lit matches in the forests (“American Icon”). Many people would also leave their campfires lit in the forest and that would soon spread to cause a wildfire (“American Icon”). These led to many wildfires cause by careless people. There needed to be change, they needed something to happen.

The Industrial Revolution set people away from farms and small villages and moved them to cities and towns because of the job opportunities that arose in the cities. The Industrial Revolution not only helped people move along in the late 1700s and early 1800s but also it has made the people what they are today. During the Industrial Revolution, the movement from an agrarian society to an industrial one reshaped the roles of families, widen the gap between classes, and led to the developments in communication, transportation, and other scientific fields that completely changed humanity.

This was the beginning of agriculture and cities. Humans then began to become exceedingly reliant upon one another for survival and less reliant on their own skills and intelligence. When this came about, natural selection took its toll allowing generations to adjust to this change. Not long after this, Mutations were generated as far as stupidity. For example, Dr. Gerald Crabtree and his colleagues wrote "A hunter-gatherer who did not correctly conceive a solution to providing food or shelter probably died, along with his/her progeny, whereas a modern Wall Street executive that made a similar conceptual mistake would receive a substantial bonus and be a more attractive mate.

It allow humans to learn how to farm and create food like bread and vegetables. Moving forward into history, the industrial revolution had created many inventions to improve and ease life. The industrial revolution was an innovative period of time that thrusted us from a predominantly agricultural existence into a more urban lifestyle. The steam engine that trains and cars used were key to the development of transportation. From light bulbs and telephones to vaccines and penicillin ; from advancements in science to maths, although we have progressed and better these the ideas of the innovations, the initial ideas “kickstarted” the better of technology. Without these key innovations and ideas, there would be no modern age as technologically advanced as we currently are today ; our world would be in quite a primitive age of technology. The comforts of life we have today are due the innovations that occurred in the past no matter how long ago. The ancient world is the base of the modern world, the father of the modern world that has built a legacy only for our world to continue to better it into a newer

As early humans began building social networks, caring for infants and sharing food it began to get easier to meet the daily challenges of the environment and survive for a longer period. Using language and symbols to tell a story has also revolutionised the way humans lived and provided different ways to cope with the unpredictable
