In this context the documentary film Darwin’s Nightmare (2004) about the fishing industry at Lake Victoria in Tanzania is a prime example to illustrate such ethical issues, stakeholders involved and their positions and views regarding such situations. The documentary is structured to encompass multiple interviews with
importance of different species and interaction works and what disappearances that can disrupt ecological processes is still inadequate. Here follows four direct drivers of change that poses the most significant threats to the ecosystem services. Biological invasions and diseases are also global phenomenon
Corporate organisations have promoted ecotourism in ways that it seems extremely beneficial to local communities and their members. One of the main benefits for local people would be job creation( such as tour guides, selling crafts etc.) that would allow them to work closer to home and will help decrease the underage working rates which sounds very appealing to locals. The Kruger national park employs 60 000 locals. With the introduction of resorts and game parks rural areas will now receive more attention
also decreasing the overall quality of caribou meat. While “subsistence hunting, fishing and trapping continue to be valued activities among Inuit,” hunters are noticing the access and availability of caribou are decreasing (Pearce et al, 2010). This is troublesome for Inuit, as according to the President of the Inuit Circumpolar Council, “eating what we hunt is at the core of what it means to be Inuit … when we can no longer hunt on the sea-ice, and eat what we hunt, we will no longer exist as a
Plastic has become an important and useful part of our world. In the Great Pacific Ocean Gyre there is six times more plastic than plankton, which is the main food for many ocean animals. By estimation eighty percent of the plastic originates from land; floating in rivers to the ocean or blew by the wind into the ocean. The remaining twenty percent of the plastic originates from oil platforms and ships (Facts). The Great Pacific Garbage Patch should be reduced by the following three ways: reduce
knowledge includes an intimate and detailed knowledge of plants, animals, and natural phenomena, the development and use of appropriate technologies for fishing, hunting, trapping, agriculture, and forestry, and a holistic knowledge, or "world view" which parallels the scientific discipline of ecology (Berkes 1993).

If the government built a wave pool at Kirra, there would be much more tourism and employment opportunities for the local community. The issue is whether they should build a surf pool even though it will produce more tourism it is not beneficial for the beach. The locals wouldn’t want a surf pool as it will destroy
not disposed in the correct manner it badly affects the environment and then in turn animals and human beings are affected as we depend on the environment for survival. 1. Source 1: Landfills and hazardous waste sites I personally cannot begin to imagine life with landfills or dumping sites. If we had no landfills where would all the waste that is produced on a daily basis by households, firms, factories and companies go? How dirty would our cities and towns be? We would have rodent attacks
quick and cheap. In order to prevent the fast food industry from taking over what we eat, we need to be educated on how to change and how to stop it from completely destroying our bodies. Fast Food Nation by Eric Schlosser explains to readers the power of control and how it is effecting the food we are putting in our bodies. He can tell how oblivious Americans are when it comes to how much money and time we spend getting cheap and gross food. We need to stop ignoring the fact that its fast and easy
to accommodate this. With all the profit coming from shipping there is also a safety factor that can stop and prevent shipping, which natural disasters caused by Mother Nature and anthropogenic. There are 120,000 vessels in the world’s fleets that participate in either fishing or importing and exporting. Tankers, bulk carriers and container ships are the most important means of transportation of our time. There are 2,800 ports in the world, where all that trade comes through. With all the products
