The Value of Biodiversity
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page paper examining whether the US should be
committed to preserving individual plant and animal species. Preservation of individual species
absolutely is a worthy pursuit to which the US should dedicate itself. The current system is much
too adversarial, pitting the "tree huggers" against the interests of the capitalist base that has kept
the country in the longest period of economic expansion it has ever known. Economists have
placed the value of the entire world ecosystem at an average of $33 trillion annually; assessing
proposed actions in terms of dollar amounts could be useful in providing a frame of reference that
policymakers and non-scientists currently do not have. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

The Viability of the Catastrophism Theory in Dinosaur Extinction
[ send me this essay ]
An 8 page consideration of the theory of catastrophism in relation to the dinosaur extinction which occurred during the Cretaceous and Tertiary periods. Weighs the geologic evidence of such an event against the environmental effects which would have occurred to contend that such an event would have had much further effects than on the dinosaurs alone. If catastrophism resulted in the extinction of the dinosaurs it would have resulted in widespread extinction of other species as well. Concludes that this fact discounts the validity of catastrophism and suggests that gradual environmental changes and the effects of competition with other animals led to this extinction. Bibliography

Thoreau/Importance of Wilderness
[ send me this essay ]
A 3 page essay that discusses Henry David Thoreau’s essay “Walking,” in which he writes that “in Wilderness is the preservation of the World” (Thoreau). In making this statement, Thoreau refers to qualities that reside in wilderness that he believes to be essential to the continued vigor of human society. These words are profound and carry great import, particularly for contemporary American society, which no longer faces the challenges of wilderness that forged the character of our ancestors. No additional sources cited.

Thoreau/Nature Essays
[ send me this essay ]
A 3 page essay that discusses 2 essays by Henry David Thoreau. Writing in the first half of the nineteenth century, Henry David Thoreau’s writing seems to modern readers to invoke a time when nature was freer and less constrained by the imprint of humanity and its influences. Nevertheless, Thoreau, in several of his nature essays, makes it clear that he sees human influence on nature as changing it, categorizing it and taming it to fit the requirements of commercialization. In this manner, Thoreau’s essays, “Huckleberries” and “Wild Apples,” are quite prophetic. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
