Orion Magazine Based On Environmental Activism

David Suzuki was called to be a steward of the earth at a very young age citing his time spent exploring his local swamp as a child as sparking his passion. Suzuki followed this by attending the university of amhurst for a bachelor of biology and a phd in zoology from the university of chicago. However he was not content to stay in the realm of academia, he knew it was his calling to share his knowledge with the public. He did this most notably through his television show The Nature of Things. In this show he shared environmental theories and explained the how humans and their actions impacted nature in a way that was accessible for the Canadian public. At the time the ideas of environmentalism and it’s scientific theories had been limited to academe causing Suzuki to receive criticism with many scholars calling his media work a waste of his talents (Philipson & Bailey, 2011).

Joel Sartore, photographer, is the main focus in this article. Over the years Sartore has created a collection of photos that he has taken of different species of animals. These animal photos have created a movement that’s goal is to inspire people and get their attention in order to help protect the lives of animals, especially those that are threatened. This organization, Photoark, is pushing the photography of zoo animals in order to get public attention. Animal play a huge role in the balance of our planet. What Joel Sartore is trying to do is save our biodiversity by protecting animals in order to preserve the environment. Throughout the article the author explains the goals of Sartore and explains the Photoark project that is growing wildly to save animals. The awareness of these animals may just be the thing to save them and our planets

My book was called Eyes Wide Open: Going Behind the Environmental Headlines by Paul Fleischman. I learned many things from this book, one of them being that companies use materials to make their products that are detrimental to the environment, and harmful to the workers or animals involved in making the product. These corporations are able to get away with it because they have a lot of money, and that means that they can pay people to release propaganda saying that their product is not harmful to anything, and advertisements saying that the people who are speaking out against their product are radical environmentalists. They can also create fake environmental groups that supposedly support the company's product. They can also influence politicians

The report is about the ecosystem and its effect on human health. That is, it is talking about the “escalating human pressure on global environment” (WHO, 2005).

I am interested in environmental studies as a potential major and want to learn more about this field in a professional setting. Through my Human Evolution, Environmental Science, and AP Biology courses, I have become familiar with ecology and evolution. While the Community-Based Ecology in the Galápagos project looks at these fields from a philosophical standpoint, it will provide me with practical experience and invaluable insights as I decide my major and future career path

Research from the World Health Organization,American Medical Association, NASA, and Earth's ecology, help the essay be more persuasive and makes the author more reliable. Bogard uses the first two sources in order to show how "...darkness

As a young child, I was always on the edge–the edge of the forbidden forest that cast my backyard in shadow, the edge of the high-rising countertop that threatened to falter my steps, and the edge of the North American continent on the old dusty map spread across my bedroom floor. I was adventurous; I loved to seek all that was unknown in the environment by which I was surrounded. The curiosity within me has bloomed as the years have come to pass; it has taken me to places I had once dreamed of and has been my guide through the inception of discovering the veins of glorious life that pump restlessly through the world and me. This yearning for sagacious knowledge has fueled my desire to follow along a scientific path; with that said, my professional goal is to negate the mundane and explore the world (and preserve its beauty) through work as an environmental

The book was very in depth and she thoroughly explained her claims through facts and data. Her claims successfully explain the patterns of life on Earth through numerous studies and she explains the dangers of extinction. The author concludes her work with the fact that humans are dependent on Earth’s biological and geochemical systems. Her work will continue to teach future readers the danger of human lifestyles if necessary actions toward sustainability are not taken. If humans continue to live their harmful lifestyles, then they will continue to danger wildlife species, the environment, and their own

In Fact, this is not something new to us or we have just come across it for the first time. The most pessimists of the Scientifics have been warning us many decades’ now. Today, as a concerned scholar, I write these words with the certitude and conviction that knowledge together with technology, if applied with wisdom, might allow for a good comely Anthropocene. A good transition into the Anthropocene is illustrated in in making people’s lives better, cushioning the impact our activities in order to stabilize the climate, and protecting the natural world. The pursuance of a good Anthropocene, which is absolutely achieved in our lifetime, will strain Humanity to use its growing technological, economical, as well as social powers to contribute to the betterment of the people’s lives, stabilize the climate, and protect the natural

The author’s purpose was meant to encourage the people around the world to respect their environment. Our environment can be amazing to explore and traverse, however it is important that we “Kill nothing but time.”, as the author

This book is about how life and death is waiting for us all at the end and why we should be concern with geology, so we can understand how our ethic is deciding the many processes that is being carried out. Also, it’s about an attempt to respond to this Anthropocene.

Our education should be aimed at educating people who love the world they lie in and who are ready to become peacemakers and healers of the world (Orr 55). A sustainable society “consists” of citizens, workers, specialists, technicians, etc, who are ready to work in order to build and support such society. One of the ways to provide such education is to “get outdoor”. The skills and abilities develop in real world and not in artificial situations in class. In this regard, we may refer to the Plato’s “Allegory of the Cave”. One should “touch” the real world problems and get personal experience from it. Shadows in the cave are the retrospectives of the real knowledge. To acquire the knowledge, we should leave the “cave”. We can learn theory separated from practice and this will not have any result. Instead, we should understand that every individual is a part of the natural world, thus, education should be based on ecological literacy as “health of our planet” is one of the most urgent questions of the modern social community.

2. Chief Purpose: To encourage researchers, psychologists, and therapist to utilize information within the article to promote involvement with nature upon the human population. To help the human race to develop an eco-friendly environment.

A photograph of Earth reveals a great deal, but it does not convey the complexity of our environment. Our environment (a term that comes from the French environner, “to surround”) is more than water, land, and air; it is the sum total of our surroundings. It includes all of the biotic factors, or living things, with which we interact. It also includes the abiotic factors, or nonliving things, with which we interact. Our environment includes the continents, oceans, clouds, and ice caps you can see in the photo of Earth from space, as well as the animals, plants, forests, and farms that comprise the landscapes around us. In a more inclusive sense, it also encompasses our built
