Why I should be the Supreme Ruler of the Universe
In these five paragraphs, I will be discussing why I should be the supreme rule of the universe. I will explain my strong points in ruling such as my ability to converse with people on a down to earth basis. My ability to help the people of the world by giving them not just what they want, but what they need. Also I will be able to save the world by setting stricter laws prevent damage to the earth. To get deeper into the subject everyone will have a say in what I do to help the world and it's inhabitants.
My people skills will help my ability to rule because then I would be able to talk to my people of the world by discussing key topics like the earth and it's atmosphere. My way with people will also help to show how I treat my co-workers and fellow countrymen. I will really test my people skills when I go to my other countries and discuss trade and life in that part of the world. I would really want show the people that I am not afraid of what the world throws at. I am afraid of only one thing and that's whether the people of earth are content in how I am running it. Hopefully I will show that my skills are adequate and that I am capable of putting them to work in a useful way. In some way I believe that you will all make the right decision in placing me as supreme ruler of the universe.
I hope all the people of earth will be satisfied with what I give them and what show them. Surely I will give them what they want but I do hope I will be able to give them what they need. That being, that all will have food shelter and adequate money resources. There will be no ghettos or gangs or drugs. I will give the world the chance to live in a happy place where there is no violence or drugs because that is how I see the world should and will be. Everybody will get his or her share because everyone is equal. Not one person should feel that they are not getting their piece of the pie because I hope to make sure that no one is left out.
I think if we were ever going to live in a perfect world, we all have to start working together for peace. For a world with no violence, a world with no crime, a place ridden with everything bad.
Finally, leadership, my most valuable skill. Leadership is useful in any career and any situation. In band, I've used it a lot. Now that I'm going into the real world and my career, I know I will use it even more. My leadership has rewarded me personally. I feel like I have already made a difference in the lives of my peers. Leadership can get me anywhere in life and I expect that this alone could get me all the way to my college graduation. These skills in combination will keep me on top, and hopefully at the top of my college
...be brought to light. In the next thirty years, one fifth of all species will become extinct and in the next one hundred years, 50% of all species will be extinct. This is a staggering statistic and the horror of this is that one species, the human, is the cause of this mass extinction.
Finally, this article touches upon inappropriate versus appropriate pathos in scientific argument. Novak is considered too invested in bringing back the passenger pigeon, while his most other scientists involved in the field do not feel the same level of attachment. Interestedness is often considered bias, but in regards to “de-extinction”, a field that is so closely related to ethics and morals, is it dangerous to be biased on behalf of bring back animals mankind contributed to destroying? One contrasting argument that none of the scientists in this article touched upon is the desire to completely change the scientific community’s direction concerning the issue of extinction to focus its energy and resources onto preventing the extinction of species struggling to survive today.
Extinction is no longer just a natural process. It is an enemy, slowly changing our world into a barren wasteland where life is as rare as a flower in the Arctic Circle's winter. The wolf, the tiger, the caribou, the elephant, the bison, the cheetah, the sequoia cactus, the redwood tree – all of these and so many more things are on the verge of disappearing from our planet forever. Extinction is the most pressing environmental issue of our time, because if it continues the way it is going without anything being done to counteract its causes and consequences, there will soon be no environment left for there to be debates about.
considered for the process of de-extinction. Some of the questions asked when viewing an animal as a candidate for de-extinction are as follows. Has it been extinct for less than 800k years? Is there enough DNA for sequencing? Does it have a sufficient habitat for it to thrive? The answers to these questions are all determining factors as to whether an extinct animal has the possibility to be brought back (Revive Restore).
Did you know humans had the power create a mass extinction event? For 12,000 years, the Holocene extinction has been devastating life on earth; it branches into nearly all taxonomic groups: birds, mammals, amphibians, reptiles, and arthropods. Only 875 extinctions have been documented between the year 1500 and 2010, but, according to International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources, there is approximately 140,000 extinctions per year. In the last 12,000 years, all over the globe, a large variety of animals have been wiped out because of human activity.
The human race has a seemingly impossible challenge before them. While many focus on huge social issues such as terrorism and world hunger, which are completely valid and important issues, many have forgotten about the state of humanity’s neighbors within our very planet. Earth is in the midst of its sixth great extinction, keyed as the Holocene Extinction after the current epoch the planet is in. The Holocene Extinction, starting between 9,000 and 13,000 years ago, is the most recent since the Cretaceous-Tertiary mass extinction, during which the dinosaurs were wiped out (Heymann, Chibante and Brooks). Such knowledge of our current ongoing mass extinction event is not well known among the common populace. The simple fact is that the human
Long-term survival of a species depends on its ability to adapt to changing environmental conditions (Murphy, 1994). Genetic diversity within a species, which has taken 3.5 billion years to evolve, makes adaptations to these changing environments possible. Unfortunately, the rate of extinction of genetically diverse organisms is rapidly increasing, thus reducing this needed biodiversity, largely due to the human impacts of development and expansion. What was an average of one extinction per year before is now one extinction per hour and extinct species numbers are expected to reach approximately one million by the year 2000 (WWW site, Bio 65). As a result governmental and societal action must be taken immediately!
Who wouldn’t want to see a Wooly Mammoth traipsing across the tundra, or see witness and laugh at the odd sized Dodo Bird? Although the spectacle of witnessing such animals is certainly fascinating, it is this attitude that makes the practice of de-extinction, in my opinion, morally incorrect. Reviving a species solely for entertainment purposes is inhumane. And due to the fact that releasing a revived species into the wild could be disastrous, the animals would have to reside in zoos, where humans could gawk at them for the rest of their lives. And if they escaped, well, we might have a Jurassic Park situation in our
Sutter, John D. “Should scientists ‘Jurassic Park’ extinct species back to life”, www.cnn.com 5 May 2014, 22 May 2014
Unlike the previous mass extinctions that were due to natural phenomena’s, the 6th mass extinction is due to human influence.
In my Learning team, my personal strength is having good people skills. I meet and get involved with new people everyday whether it be work or school related. I enjoy speaking, listening and giving input to my team members so that they are aware that they can count on me to participate as a team player in our Learning Team. Good people skills are very important in a group setting because of all the di...
If I were Ibn Saud or if I were Muhammad Asad, what would I do for the betterment of the ummah? What would I do if someone takes over my country? Do I have plan and strategy? Do I have a good understanding towards my religion to guide myself and other people? As for now, I must say that I do not have all that kind of things. I should start now before it’s too late.
The planet earth is a complex environment in which various organisms have cycled through their time of existence for millions of years. All species that have lived are destined for extinction at some point in time, and this is a natural process and cycle. Mass extinctions are this process at an extreme rate. In fact, many scientists today suspect that earth is on the verge of the sixth mass extinction. In order to better analyze this, one must understand what a mass extinction is, the history of mass extinctions, the evidence that earth is nearing the next extinction, and how humans are affecting the extinction.
