Some people believe that mountain bikes should be aloud in the wilderness some people do not. In my opinion I believe that mountain bikes should not be aloud in the wilderness . The reason I believe that mountain bikes should not be aloud in the wilderness is because when they are going very quick and need to stop that might go off trail and ruin some of the animals environment.An example is say you are going super quick down a wet hill and you are trying to stop so you turn off track and you're not paying attention to what's under you because you're trying to stop and so you run over a bunny’s burrow which means they have to find a new place to live. Another reason I think mountain bikers should not be in the wilderness is because
...tempt to diffuse violence. To even state that mans use of animals is immoral, and to claim that we have no right over our lives and must sacrifice our welfare for the sake of beings that cannot even think or grasp the concept of morality is ridicules. We would be elevating amoral animals to a moral level that is higher than our own, thus granting animals rights is not only fictional but wrong. In the words of Mat Block “Cows or cats would eat us to if they had a chance. Do not mistake a cats respect for one that is dominate for love, they are killers plain and simple and if you do not believe me ask their friends the birds”
The wild is a place to push yourself to the limit and take a look at who you truly are inside. “Wilderness areas have value as symbols of unselfishness” (Nash). Roderick Nash’s philosophy states that the wilderness gives people an opportunity to learn humility but they fight this because they do not have a true desire to be humble. Human-kind wants to give out the illusion that they are nature lovers when in reality, they are far from it. “When we go to designated wilderness we are, as the 1964 act says, "visitors" in someone else's home” (Nash). People do not like what they cannot control and nature is uncontrollable. Ecocentrism, the belief that nature is the most important element of life, is not widely accepted. The novel Into the Wild by Jon Krakauer depicts a young boy who goes on an exploration to teach himself the true concept of humility. Chris McCandless, the protagonist, does not place confidence in the universal ideology that human beings are the most significant species on the planet, anthropocentrism.
...rather than in undeveloped and remote areas. By choosing to stay close to urbanized areas the impact is much more concentrated meaning animals have more habitat and are less likely to venture into human areas and become a nuisance. You can also help wildlife by obeying city laws and regulations regarding proper trash and food disposal. You can also respect local wildlife by staying out of out of bound areas that are often meant for wildlife and following the leave no trace principle of you pack it in you pack it out, meaning taking your trash with you off the mountain and not littering. You can also help the local wildlife by keeping a respectful distance and trying not to disturb them when you do happen to come across a wild animal. This has the upside of preserving the local environment as well as the scenic atmosphere that draws many visitors to the mountains.
While it might seem hard to believe, it is actually legal. However, there are several restrictions as to which animals you can hunt,
People need to live closer to nature because every time hunting season is open people kill more farm animals than the actual thing they are
As a young girl growing up in a small town in Pennsylvania, it was common for me to be around hunting. All of the men in my family were hunters, fishers, and trappers. As I grew older my view on hunting changed. I no longer viewed hunting as the normal thing to do but began to see it as wrong. Year after year I watched as the men in my family would go out to camp to chase bear or hunt deer. Each time I hoped they wouldn’t get anything. I am arguing against hunting. I feel that hunting is no longer needed for survival but rather for sport. I think that hunting causes more accidents, through collisions with deer, during hunting season. I also believe that hunting is nothing more than a waste of money because it is so costly.
Motorcycle helmet laws should be required for people to have because it saves tons of lives. Some people believe that motorcycle helmet laws should not be required because it limits personal freedom. However, people riding motorcycles should be required to wear a helmet because it saves tons of
Finally, hunting can lead to accidents during the outing. Specifically, according to Interstate Sportsman, it is estimated that about 700 people die from hunting wounds nationwide in a year Additionally, most average hunters only hunt one of two days in a year. This is why hunting is too dangerous to be held as a sport. When the hunter is looking for game, the hunter might see another hunter, think it’s an animal, and shoot it. Because of all of these accidents, hunting should not be considered a
Many people wander off the designated roads; they wind up onto private lands and can be charged with trespassing. These off-road vehicles are destroying private residence land. The owners are outraged and demand for the police to put a stop to illegal off-roading. All land owners encourage everyone to report and illegal off-roaders at WWW.Riversidesheriff.org/rove/. They say it is a disturbance and causes damage to their property. It is clear the off-roaders are not wanted or welcomed. When you drive off the designated trails, you are driving onto someone’s private land. It is important to keep in mind that if you are on someone’s land, you are trespassing and causing a disturbance. When you are driving behind houses in the desert, you need to be cautious in case a pet got loose, how would you feel if your companion got out and someone that was trespassing ran them over because they were being
This paper will discuss some of the physics involved in bicycles. Specifically, mountain bikes with suspension. A bicycle is a very energy efficient vehicle. Its wheels allow its rider to make full use of inertia and gravitational potential energy. The basic design of a bicycle has been around for over 100 years and compared to other things, has changed very little. Some of the topics that will be covered are: frames, wheels, suspension forks, suspension frames, brakes and how all these things affect speed, momentum and stability.
My thoughts against hunting are that it is cruel and unnecessary. I do not feel that it is fair to the animals that they have done no harm to us but they get killed for the money or entertainment we get out of it.
In conclusion, it must be considered that people have personal rights in whatever they choose to. A rule with a moral reason as Amartya Sen calls them. He argues that if there is a moral right to take personal risks, it would be morally wrong to stop a person from taking such a risk (McNamee 47). One of the pertinent problems in relation to voluntary risk taking is whether the risk is reasonable relative to what one wants to achieve. First we need to find a degree of probability of harm or injury as a result of the action. Secondly, we must look at the seriousness of the harm caused. Are extreme sports valuable, are they morally acceptable or should some of them be prohibited by law.
“My bike is my gym, my wheelchair and my church all in one. I 'd like to ride my bike all day long but I 've got this thing called a job that keeps getting in the way,” by Bill Watson explains what my bike is to me. If I had my choice, I would be on my bike for hours a day again to watch, pray, and just be myself. Yet my job gets in the way, my life gets in the way. Without even meaning to I got looked up to on my bike and still do by, brand new, people everyday. When I walk to a football game or a public event I get ,“It 's so awkward that you 're not even next to your bike,” or “How long do you even ride?,”. My bike has helped me become someone I am proud to be and see everyday in the mirror and when I wake up with my bike on my mind, I know exactly how I feel to me and I want you to know exactly how it all got started.
Bicycle has been used as an important mode of non-motorized transportation to enhance the transportation sustainability, and reduce air and noise pollution, as well as, a reduction in traffic congestion compared. Moreover, the use of bicycle also contributes to slow down the climate change and improved health, according to Human Factors/Ergonomics (HF/E) professionals (1). In recent years, increasing population densities and social sentiments toward sustainability as the main driving forces has raised a strong push towards advancing cycling. An increasing number of individuals consider this transportation alternative, but many are deterred when faced with the challenges of mobility and comfort. In other words, the numerous benefits of using bicycle, does not diminish the fact that a large amount of vehicles in urban networks are causing concerns about the safety and comfort of cycling. Therefore, one of
