"Saving" the Earth
Can the Earth Be Saved? I will begin by explaining what this presentation entitled, “Can the Earth Be Saved?” is about. It can be divided into six parts. The first part is the longest. It is concerned with Global Warming-what it is, why it is and why it’s a problem. Global Warming will be followed by a brief explanation of some other reasons that fossil fuels are not the best sources of energy. The third part will point out other threats to the earth’s ecosystem. The fourth part is devoted to the Earth’s perspective. The fifth part of the talk will explain my answer to the question, can the earth be saved? Finally, I will conclude with a few words about how all of this relates to environmental justice. My goal is not to teach you a bunch of facts about ecology . My aim is to get you to think a bit differently about the earth and about the life that the earth supports. 1.
