Week#9- Capstone Checkpoint SCI/230 Helene Garcia 1/24/2012 Duygen Nguyen I believe that everybody requires accepting a dynamic part in preserving those regions that are threatened by human encroachment. It might not be displaying obvious results in your area right now however it will ultimately; our natural sources as well as the regions they live in are in restricted supply. According to the article, Preserving Paradise, written by Chris Redman; it states, “Like Madagascar's rain forests, the country's National Forest Seed Bank (SNGF) in Antananarivo looks to be losing the battle against human encroachment. Engulfed by the capital's urban sprawl, the SNGF's small, scruffy patch of land has row upon row of seedlings, some of them species facing extinction in the wild. They seem too delicate to make it through the furious tropical storms common in the island's November-to-April rainy season”. (Redman, 2012) After we have utilized every one of them they will never be once more in case steps aren't undertaken to protect them. This is also true about the environments as well as biology of our globe. The one thing that appears to be thriving on the planet is mankind so we are the people triggering all the devastation. The unfortunate reality is that we are the sole types on our globe having the brain capability to understand what we are performing, know the effects and have the capability to correct it. I don't think that the benefits of rivaling groups must be balanced in case it could be verified that a group's interests are producing damage by any means to our world. In case damage is an outcome in that case that group's activities must stop. A large number of group’s interests are in taking advantage of a source to get cash in their wallets. As these sources are in a restricted supply, when they have been consumed and run out, what will these groups carry out after that' In many instances they go to another source. The instance of exploration for oil in the Arctic to increase the financial state and lower our dependence on overseas oil is a provisional solution. It is just like placing a band aid on a punctured artery. It might get us more time however when it's consumed where do we move after that' Do we return to overseas oil or do we ruin one more environment' What occurs when we have utilized up our resources for oil and therefore our overseas providers' This will occur sooner or later provided the pace at which we consume oil and the length of time it requires replacing it. When it's not inside U.S. limits we still must intervene. This is because what is being carried out in other states has an effect on the whole world. Only since it is not in our back yard doesn't mean that we can overlook it. You will find plans set up and methods to attempt to decrease and/or fix some of this harm. The logging market must be made to replant places they have cut down. I simply made flight bookings and was provided the chance to give a small sum to have trees grown in reducing the carbon impact I will produce by traveling. In case we can bring about the bad in that case we definitely can bring about the good to attempt to counter each other a bit. Reference 1.
