What is up class? I have been having a wonderful day
in the sun and now it is time to analyze rhetoric in some ads. Also I played
some Frisbee and it was super fun! Frisbee is my new favorite sport! Check out
this ad for planting more tress from some conservationist company. It has a
concrete pole and a spray painted shadow of a palm tree on the ground. The pole
read in white letter that “nothing can replace a tree”. This reminds people of
the nearing future of what will be if we continue deforestation. Also this
shows that trees will be just a shadow of our humanity’s future. This is most
apparent in the amazon the main sources of deforestation in the Amazon rain forest are human settlement and development of the land. In the nine years
from 1991 to 2000, the total area of Amazon rain forest cleared rose from
415,000 to 587,000 km²; comparable to the total land area of Spain, Madagascar
or Manitoba. Most of this lost forest has been replaced with pasture for
cattle. I am a big proponent for conservation because I am worried about the
future air quality of our nation. I do not want to end up like Hong Kong and
Beijing in China where people have to wear masks to avoid getting sick. The
pollution is so thick down in China that you cannot see a block ahead of you. I
love planting trees in my neighborhood and other parks. It gives me a sense of
hope and also a sense of accomplishment. It lets me know that I am helping
produce more oxygen and making the town look better as well is a good bonus. I
hope that everyone will realize to save energy and other stuff before it is too
late.
