NGO Ethics and Accountability
[ send me this essay ]
A 15 page paper focusing on the accountability of NGO (non-governmental organizations) activity and the ethical base on which it is founded to inform actions that NGOs take in developing nations. NGOs must be held accountable not only for their specific actions, but also for the ethics underlying those actions. Investors need to reward public NGOs with support in the stock market rather than abandon those not posting consistently positive quarterly results. Greater transparency and commitment to the TBL (triple bottom line) model can assist in educating investors and NGOs, as can assessment of possible alternatives on a “what if” basis. The cost of avoidance of damage nearly always is less than its repair. The paper uses the philosophy of Kant and Mill; cost-benefit analysis; and real-world examples in support of its conclusions. Bibliography lists 9 sources.

Niokolo-Koba National Park: Ecological Preservation
[ send me this essay ]
7 pages in length. To say Senegal's Niokolo-Koba National Park is teeming with wildlife would almost be an understatement considering the vast numbers of species who call this protected land home. However, the word "protected" is used very loosely in this case because of how illegal poaching is threatening the very existence of these myriad animals. Coupled with drought and a proposed dam that will interrupt the flooding necessary for a variety of vegetation that feeds and houses dozens of different species. The elephant - clearly magnificent in his gentle thunder - is on the verge of distinction from the national park along with the lion, leopard and giant derby eland, a catastrophic situation currently being addressed at a feverish pace. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

A 16 page research paper on nuclear energy and the price that we pay to have it.
