psychology, and she pursued public health while I will be completing a degree in molecular genetics & psychology and would like to study conservation. Her experience traversing a field at which she felt drawn to that was different from initially planned was one aspect for which I had hoped to draw connection through. During our conversations, we did not mention conservation in detail. In doing so, I worried initially, that I shared too little information about my future job, fore we talked…

study are provided useful tool to evaluating soil erosion in similar areas. They suggested that soil management, protection and conservation technique must be adopted to stop soil loss in the identified hotspots. Soil conservation methods such as terracing, bunding, agro-forestry techniques, crop rotation and some biological and physical techniques of soil and water conservation methods must be…

source of the problem is big game and trophy hunters. The sport of big game hunting needs to be outlawed by governments worldwide because of its brutality and pointlessness. The actions of these big game hunters also hurts efforts towards wildlife conservation. The hunting of exotic animals for sport should be outlawed because it is inhumane and immoral. An animal is a living creature, just the same as any other person; their lives should be valued the same. As these animals are hunted and…

Big game hunters try to justify their hunting activities by saying their money helps the local communities as well as conservation of animals in Africa. However, Economists at Large gave a report that shows that very little of the money they spend actually goes towards local communities.

Without proper access or enough resources to go around, society can be in for some consequences. In Jared Diamond’s essay, “The Last Americans”, he explains how the Mayan civilization collapsed due to a variety of reasons, one of which being a lack of resources. He then draws parallels to how the issue could play a role in modern society.…

For example, in Han China government officials gave specific instructions on how to properly establish water conservations to help the common people and save their labor. “I request that you establish water conservation offices in each district and staff them with people who are experienced in the ways of water. There should be one high official and one deputy with just enough workers to meet the need. For…

and respected. This is much like what was done in the works of Romantic thinkers such as William Wordsworth and other Transcendentalists. The big picture goal coming out of the filmmakers’ representations of nature seems to be a calling for the conservation of the environment. By showing the unpredictability of nature…

In addition to spending in local towns due to visitation of national parks, they also provide a source of jobs. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park alone provided 12,759 jobs in 2014 (Cullinane Thomas, C., C. Huber, and L. Koontz). These jobs helped with keeping the park open to the ten million people that visited the park in 2014.
