Fears for Brazil rainforest rise with beef sales

Fears for Brazil rainforest rise with beef sales

In the author’s (2005) article, "Fears for Brazil rainforest rise with beef sales," he writes about the beef raising business which faced many problems in sales. Brazil is a country with so much rainforest that foot and mouth disease was diffusive, which led to affecting its level of imports to the EU. A group campaigned saying, “What about the rainforest?’’ This group was Irish, and supported Irish farmers against the threat of Brazilian imports. Many countries are criticizing Brazil because they have been making tree species extinct. Some people argued that deforestation has led to many different troubles. However, he said, Brazil is trying to remove the rainforest and change it to beef raising. There are three solutions that Brazil’s government can use to save Brazil’s rainforest: ban cattle raising, make it more difficult and give people other choices to make money.

First, the rainforest is very important in the environment. Plowing will impact the Amazon; because of that banning cattle raising is going to save its life. The Brazil government should let farmers know the risks to the environment.

Second, there are many ways to stop distinction of rainforest by making cutting it down more difficult. Brazil’s government should give warnings and punishments for anyone who breaks the rules. The law has to be conclusive to keep the environment. There is another way to make it difficult. Tax is a good idea to decrease the number of people who like the rainforest. Usually people hate the tax, so I think it is a great plan. I believe punishments or tax is a good solution for the problem of the rainforest.

Third, government should give farmers other ways to make money. Usually people are trying to make money in any way. First, planting crops is a good way to increase exportation. Also, a new technique can help them increase their growth and improve their position in the world. There are many ways that can lead them to making money.

In conclusion, removing the rainforest and changing it to animal raising will lead Brazil to big environment at environmental problems. The Brazil government has to ban cattle raising before it gets risks. Punishments or tax is going to be difficult for anyone who wants to change the rules. Government should show people another way to make money. I deducted three solutions for that: ban cattie raising, make it more difficult and give them other choices to make money.

Global Warming

Mohammed R
EAP-2

According to Bhattacharya, global warming is coming on around the world. It is very dangerous; it may cause extinction for the animals and plants. Some researchers studied and evaluated animals and plants affected by global warming. So people have to be ready for drastic effects of global warming. It is likely to have an impact on people’s health or the climate. Next, some of the mutations may inherently change people’s lives. How can we stop global warming? Some researchers say, it comes from nature, but other people say it comes from the environmental pollution. I believe global warming may affect the environment, and that we should control air pollution, use alternative solar energy and battle the deserts.

First, I think the air pollution problem is due to actions of industry. The best solution should be changing the burning policies of industries. For example, every country has an industrial area and it affects air pollution very much. In the past, we did not suffer from air pollution.

Second, solar energy would decrease global warming. We can use alternative energy such as another energy without the burning of fuels. Alternative solar energy will be able to help us to avert the problem of global warming. Alternative solar energy could be used for running of cars. Solar energy is more important than other energies because it does not pollute the earth.

Finally, battling deserts is going to be healthy for our environment. Some people would like to raise forests and gardens to use them. Deserts are giving us a negative result, so it would be great to keep saving the trees. People are using trees to make fires for energy; those people cause two problems, not saving the wood, and causing air pollution.

In conclusion, global warming will be inevitable and we should take care of it. Controlling air pollution’s impact might affect the environment. Next, we can change burning of fuels to alternative solar energy. We might decrease global warming by battling deserts. Those three, air pollution, alternative solar energy and the deserts battling would be the best solution for global warming.

Summary:

This article talks about Martin Luther King, Jr., one of the most famous people in the world. MLK, (January 15, 1929-April 4, 1968) was born Michael, but his name was changed to Martin. MLK was the greatest leader for black people. Also, he made a great effort to spread fairness and peace and to annihilate the segregation between American people, especially, between black and white people. As a result, he got The Nobel Peace Prize, which is the most important prize in the world, just for great people.

Martin Luther King faced many troubles in his life to prevent his efforts to achieve his purposes; he had not given up until some fainthearted people assassinated him. Also, he got the Nobl Peace Prize even though he was 35 years old, because he did his best to solve the fanatic problems which were in the USA. I agree with what he had done in his peregrination, because there is no doctrine or religions that support any kind of segregation. it is very hard to people find like him now. We have great, good, and grand examples for the people who were fighting against segregation. The first example is prophet Mohammed, who is the best person in this universe. One of his attitudes, which is about fighting against segregation, is when his Jewish neighbor was sick, he visited him. Also, we have prophet Jesus, one of the best prophets, who was modest, and humble and he was very nice with every person.

Summary:

According of this article, Faisal bin Abd Al Aziz was born in Saudi Arabia in 1906. He came from a religious family. This man is one of the kings of the KSA. He spent his childhood with his father to get some experience about everything, especially political skills, from him. After that his father saw a strong, judicious, clever man in King Faisal, so he put his son in an important position, even though King Faisal was a young man. Although King Faisal was rich, he was modest. He had ability to fix problems and he was a skilled politician and democrat. Even though he was living in a desert he was thinking to improve everything in his country. He did his best to make the KSA one of the most important countries in the world. King Faisal established many schools, hospitals, factories, and universities. The KSA was started its new development because of king Faisal.

Reaction:

Faisal bin Abd Al Aziz has many brothers who are kings. Of the brothers who are kings even now, he was the best one in my opinion. Saudi Arabia grew with that man. He was very sophisticated politically. People like him because he was more co-operative with the people. He cared about poor people.

Mohandas Gandhi (1869 - 1948)

Reference:

“Mohandas Gandhi (1869 - 1948)”. (2007). Bbc.co.uk/history. Retrieved Sept. 17, 2007 from this article

Summary:

In the bbc.co.uk article,"Mohandas Gandhi (1869 - 1948)," the author writes about Gandhi’s history from his birth in 1869 until he was assassinated in1948 in Delhi by a Hindu fanatic. He was learning to be a barrister in London. Next, he came back to India in 1891 and in 1893 worked an Indian law company in Durban, South Africa. After that, he returned to India to face violence against British rule. He was imprisoned for six years but he was released after two years and he was continuing to work hard to improve Hindu-Muslim relations. He and people who agree with him were striking against British products. He was the sole representative of the Indian National Congress in London.

In my opinion, I like to write about the most famous people's history so I was interested in reading about them, especially, the people who are similar to Mohandas Gandhi. He was educated, brave, and an adventurous man, so his life had a lot of adventures until his assassination. Although he faced many troubles in his life to prevent violence, he had not given up until a Hindu fanatic assassinated him. In addition, I agree with what he had done in his fight against violence, because there is no doctrine or religions support for any kind of segregation. I wish we had people like Mohandas Gandhi now; also it is very hard to find people like him now.

Why Electrical Engineering?

Why Electrical Engineering?
Reference: Miles A.( Why Electrical Engineering? Retrieved Sept.4,2007, from http://www.science-engineering.net/electrical_engineering.htm

Summary:

In Dr Miles article,"Why Electrical Engineering?" the author states Electrical Engineering is one of the important things in our life. Next, we will appreciate electric when we are living without it. Electrical engineering helps us in commerce in electronic devices. According the author, the United Kingdom engineering was developed by electrical engineers. Young electrical engineers had power to succeed with products and develop them. The author says than the United Kingdom universities shared improving electrical engineering over several centuries. According to the author, usually electrical engineering departments of UK universities are busy in the research. Finally, electrical engineering is necessary for successful life in the future.

In my opinion, I agree with what the author said. Everything in our life is electric in this time. We cannot live without electricity. So that leads us to wonder how we can keep up with electronic apparatus. Electrical engineering is good for making money. A person who has a great certificates can find any job everywhere. I have a diploma from an electoral communication college. My major is a lot of fun and important in our life.

Fluency Ex. My major

I hope to teach after I finish my major. My major is Electronic engineering. I want to work at a college in my country. If I can’t find a job in the college, I will go to look in the synthetic industry. Maybe I will face some danqer in my work. Also I might spend a lot of time when I choose synthetics. My major is difficult to study for and difficult to work in. usually any engineers in my country get a good salary. I like my major because it's more fun and more technical. Electronics is very important in our lives.
