The 11th hour" is mainly deal with the issue and concern of climate change due to our false behavior and attitude. World have civilize suddenly which end up use natural resources cruelly.
The man on the video state Catharina is just for beginning, he said we will face bigger and bigger problem in near future, he mention about the global warming and how most people have not recognize the result it will bring to them. Thom Hartmann said "Problem is not a technology, problem is not too much carbon dioxide, problem is not a wasting, the problem is way that we are thinking, the problem is fundamentally cultural problem. I am totally agreed with his statement, I believe few people who have recognize the real problem is the reason why we are still living in nice and clean environment. They have created alternative solar power, alternative vehicle, and alternative flight, not only that false behavior that we are unconsciously do in daily life such as not using public transformation, not care for the waste, etc. as the things that we are using in daily life. I believe if this false behavior and attitude is fixed, our environment will be preserved..

April 18 Friday "Bullshit"
This film is about Vandana Shiva's quest to eliminate the use of genetically modified food and seeds in her country as well as other countries. She mention that the company Mosanto and how they frequently challenged by creating and marketing genetically modified seeds since it needs herbicides, fertilizers, and other chemical in order to become a crop. This is reason why some farmer is becoming suicide since they could not afford the money to purchase various product. And some farmers end up creating doubt, and if nature disaster happens they lose all the outcome they have done and they end up losing their poverty because of the loans. This is a huge problem that this film addressed.
Cocacola state that India is getting better due to accept United Stated culture, so India also experience globalism, however Vandana Shiva thought that this ruins India, she thought that due to the companies and factories from other countries they are having trouble with finding drinkable water, since the company have changed "good water" to polluted water. And Coca-Cola company have said she suppose to find the truth, she is not doing social activity. However I believe Coca-Cola must accept the truth of 12 family have lost drinkable water because of them, this must be solved before they argued whether Coca-Cola company must be kicked out or not.

April 15 Common Problems
The brief definition for "Tragedy of the commons theory" is economic problem that individual tend to destroy the greatest benefit they can get from the given resource. Earth is resource that everyone is using yet also abusing because of natural tragedy of the human being.
Most people have not recognize serious problems that we might get in near future, yet some people have recognize the problem such as group Kyoto protocol, their goal is to bring nations together in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and try to slow global warming. They are monitoring and precise records of the countries, they also provide the adaptation fund to help country financially. And also nationally, South Korea have set up the date nationally for planting trees, in every year of April 5th started in 1949.
Kyoto protocol and south korea have done sustainable management that every people should do yet people have not done it due to the tragedy of human being.
The great thing is few nations and people group have recognized that everyone had to have interest of saving common resources that we must have and they agreed to look beyond short-term gain and ignore self-interest for the sustainable future. This attitude is what we need for using great given resource.

Too Much, [ Population growth ] March 28
It sound really cruel yet I believe growth of population is a huge problem that we must fix before we move on to next generation. Earth's population is reaching almost seven billion yet our planet resource are limited and environmental is getting toxic. The scientist estimate that in 2050 Earth's population will reach almost nine billion people, people need to recognize this issue seriously.
The biggest problems of growth population is environment problem, we are already experiencing global warming, ice are melting due to hot weather. In near future we will hardly find green land due to increasing of building houses, and also our atmosphere will be contaminated due to cars, air conditioning, heating, and etc, this will result increasing of temperature and because of this issues many animals and plants will die due to lack of ability to adapt.
The another biggest problems is lack of planet resource, we are now experiencing lack of drinkable water, this is not yet the problems of lich country yet, but they have increasing the price of drinkable water since they do recognize huge problems that we will face, the poor countries however they used barrel to store the water when it rains, they do not have such thing as drinkable water, this is already huge problem. Yet we will facing lack of food resources due to cruel raise of animals, and environment change, this will destroy the food chain.
Lastly, people are more likely unemployed, due to over population and most countries is experience this problem now, because economies are unable to provide jobs for the growing number of young people. However they still could not find any solution, and if we do not stop over population this problems never get fixed.
Population growth is a the huge problem that people have to fixed before we go on to next generation, people have to recognize the problems and government must find solution to either reduce growth of population or find great solution for better future.

Term Paper Topic : Animal rights
Animals should have their own rights that they can be free from human being needs and live in natural. But I will make my powerpoint to highlight what the animal rights really are.

My powerpoint Key words would be
-animal welfare
-animal test (because of our sake of science.. cosmetic products.. etc)
-animal rights
-relationship with animal rights and human being needs

animals right
I believe animal right is a very fragile, sensitive subject.
However, as we all know, people use animals to test the cosmetic products, or to approve new medicine by the law.
But do we have to use animals for our sake of science? the answer is no.
The choice comes from our moral consideration for animals , and because of satisfaction of human being's curiosity, the treatments on animals leaves only the medical experiments. Then why are the people who agrees with use animals as our sake of science but disregard the moral consideration for animals ?
first, the people who agree with treatments on animal, thinks that the animals are not
important as human being, and they naturally thinks that animals are for human beings’ needs, however even though animals are not smart enough to treated as human being they do feel the pain that they suppose not to have.
Well, right does not comes from intelligence it comes from the instinct of human mind,
being intelligence is not mean human can rule the animals as they wanted . For instance, infant cannot read, speak or express oneself idea to other people. Then in this case, who can tell and say that this little cute infant does not have any right to live freely? We all know the answer. They do have their own rights !
Not only the infants but also animals should be treated the same way as we treat human being.
Just because of the lower intelligence comparison to human being', no one can treat and judge any living creature to no right life.
Therefore, I strongly argue that treatments on animals are not moral consideration for animals and animals’ right.

The question of how you were raised to relate to nature. . ( Feb. 18. Tues. Assignment Blog post )
The question of how you were raised to relate to nature,
realizing that your relationship to nature is not objective?, can be reinterpret as the question of how do you think about nature?.
In period of pre-Renaissance, people believed that the nature is inviolableness, this is reason why they believed whenever nature disaster happen, God is the one who punish them, so people in this period actually fear the nature. And few more century later during the renaissance period people think the nature is equal to them, so people in this period people actually question about nature and curious how nature disaster happens.
In Modernity period which is after 17 century to today people totally changed their mind of human is greater than the nature, since people can actually predict the nature disaster and they are actually study nature.
So the answer for how you were raised to relate to nature, realizing that your relationship to nature is not objective is people in today actually learn and understand the nature and the nature is not the objective but the money or the eternal life is the objective and main goals for them.
