The Importance Of Appealing To Logos

In Brian Parham’s article “There Are Multiple Threats to the Earth’s Environment,” published by The Bridge website on November 18, 2012, Parham claims that Earth’s environment is threatened by a wide variety of issues. Parham 's "There Are Multiple Threats to the Earth 's Environment" is an effective argument due to the strong uses of ethos and pathos, despite the weak use of logos.

In the persuasive essay “Let There Be Dark” by Paul Bogard, the author addresses the issue of light pollution being a serious problem worldwide and offers some ideas on how people can reverse this epidemic. Bogard uses all three persuasive strategies, logos, pathos and ethos. The use of these strategies within his writing help to strengthen his argument. He uses pathos by evoking several emotions throughout his paper and telling the audience that the Earth’s ecology would collapse if darkness continues to disappear. This makes the audience really think about what our future would be like if we continued to let light pollution happen. Another strategy he uses is logos and the use of facts. He explains that organizations around the world are voicing

In today's age, advertisements are found in almost every situation. These advertisements are found in a multitude of different places, including places such as billboards, newspapers, and on the television. Advertisements are most successful if they incorporate ethos, pathos, and logos into the message they are trying to present. Ethos is the credibility of an advertisement, pathos is the emotional appeal of an advertisement, and logos is the logic found in the advertisement. This paper will show the similarities and differences in pathos, logos, and ethos found in two separate Budweiser advertisements.

There are 3 types of form of argument in creating advertisement, namely, ethos, pathos and logos. Ethos is a form based on character or authority while pathos is based on emotions such as fear, desire, sympathy and anger. Lastly, logos is something on logic, facts and figures. In advertisement industry, ethos could be identified through the product which is endorsed by celebrity, someone in a uniform and professional looking people. This is because ethos refers to the trustworthiness or credibility of the people who advertise. When we see a puppy locked inside stuffy cage, beside an empty feed bowl and staring at us, we probably feel sympathy for the poor puppy’s situation. This is the way the advertiser sells us dog food. They are successful to stimulate our pathos as Pathos means persuading by appealing to the people’s emotion. Logos is a concept that is opposite of pathos. It means persuading by use of reasoning and logic. It is mostly in form of evidence, explanation, facts,

The pamphlet will appeal to a neutral and resistant audience. The facts and argument should persuade a neutral audience, but I will argue for and against my point of view and encourage a resistant audience to use reason and logic to make a decision. I will use a logos appeal to support my argument. A logos appeal suits my argument because it will use facts and statistics to appeal to the audience. The audience must use reason and logic to support their final decision on the argument. The pamphlet will use background color that is easy on the eye and minimum color or no color at all for the text. I will use standard fonts that are easy to read, but I will make them appealing and change the fonts where necessary. I will use pictures to reinforce

A brand is a portfolio of qualities associated with a name, which in turn invokes certain images to individuals and hold values beyond the benefits of a product (Iacobucci, 2018). Brand association occurs when customers make a cognitive or emotional association with a particular brand. For instance, when a customer sees a certain color, symbol, logo, or name they automatically can make a connection to a particular brand. Brands start with a name that conveys information, suggest their benefits, or can even be named after their founders (Iacobucci, 2018). In the marketing perspective marketers can control the brand which they are marketing by using catching logos, colors, slogans, or even the products shape and appearance. In marketing a marketer can control the message they are trying to convey but cannot really have control over an individual’s association with that particular brand. Once a customer has an association with a particular brand they may favor the brand based on a past experience or even that individual’s sense of style or they may dislike a brand because of an association they

Everyone in my generation has probably grown up seeing ads or watching videos about pollution or about the environment in general, so much, to the point that these constant reminders about protecting our planet are already part of the norm for us. While these reminders have had positive effects, like how more and more people have become informed of the Earth’s condition, many people, myself included, still remain indifferent to the threats our environment faces. I won’t lie; I’m no saint or crusader for the cause, but every now and then certain videos or articles strike a chord within me and makes me reflect on the way how I’ve been living affects the environment. One such article was the one we read last week in class, “The Sixth Extinction” by Elizabeth Kolbert in the Upfront magazine.

    Finally, I know that many remain unenlightened about the issues facing us today and in the future. By studying in college and working in the field of environmental engineering, I will become an expert on the problems and their solutions, and I aim to share that knowledge with the world. I want to be able to communicate to people the necessity for action and push for environmental policies. In order to make change people must understand why change is imperative. By spreading the word and calling for action I want to inspire change and leave a lasting impact upon our

Along with my love for the environment came a pain in watching it suffer around the world as human development encroached onto once untouched regions. I felt powerless and desperate to somehow use my individual influence, no matter how small, to slow the damage to the planet and lessen the impact a growing population was having as we dive deeper for resources.

Green living is one of the hottest topics in the 21h century since we are facing the shortage of resources and the degradation of the environment. Waste sorting, recycling, light saving and so forth, we regard them as basic steps of environment protection. However, in “As the World Burns: 50 Simple Things You Can Do to Stay in Denial”, by Derrick Jensen, Stephanie McMillan, 2007, authors use visual arts illustrates this way of protection is not on the right track. They pointed out that the earth will burn out before we die out, and those simple steps we do to protect environment only reduce the urgency but do not solving the problems. In "The Politics of the Natural in U.S. History and Popular Culture”, by Noёl Sturgeon, 2009, the author discussed that advertising of popular culture would affect negatively on the environment in future concern. Both readings use visual rhetoric to demonstrate the current environment situation and its problem.

Environmental issues can be difficult to resolve. With many different sources and countless resulting effects, it can be a challenge to pinpoint the best solution to fix the issue. Once it has been brought to the attention of decision makers, one must choose a perspective from which they will analyze the problem. Will they look at it from an anthropocentric point of view, in which first & foremost, people’s interests are taken into account? Or will they analyze it from an ecocentric perspective in which the current state and developing future of the environment is the first priority? Once this has been decided, they must then choose who will manage the process of resolving the issue. This leads to my topic for this paper which will be discussed

Government officials and environmentalists try to control everything while claiming "it's what's best for the environment." However, they fail to realize what's best for the people and their lives. By using logos and factual evidence, Adam B. Summers forms an argument in an attempt to persuade his audience to fight against the ban on plastic bags.

The piece of some the assigned reading that interest me the most is the effect of greediness and behaviors impacting the environment. As such, in ‘Eco Defense”, however the writer pointed out the imperative for one’s to take action to preserve the environment. Addition, in “The call of Wild” the author highlights the behaviors of humankind destroying everything; such as, earth and naturel resources, and as well as animals, trees and plant are being affected by the disruption of the human. Basically my topic will be on the environment and what other aspect that are destroying the planet and also what can be done to educate the new generation about it. Not only I believe it is a patriotic thing to preserve the planet and also believe that it

My other ideas about the topic describes that how the consumption of the fossils fuels degrades the environment. Climate change depletion of ozone layers increases the global warming. This is the major problems done by human activities which the environments face. This was the challenge points which was discussed with the audience

In my opinion, I think that logos is the most effective way to persuade the audience, because it is visual, has a realistic result and can be compared directly. To begin with, logos provides the audience with an authentic vision so that they can understand the effectiveness of the product easily. For example, in the documentary "Killing Cancer", professional doctors and scientists did brain surgery to inject the virus into the tumor of the patient. These professions also talked many scientific principles before the surgery and explained through some animations in a theoretical approach. By looking at the surgery directly and hearing the professions' explains, the audience is able to trust the feasibility of the cancer treatment. The audience will not be doubtful about this new treatment, and instead admiring the techniques and wisdom of the scientists.
