Global warming is increasing day by day because of the increasing technological needs of the human beings.

It
is affecting the daily lives of the human beings, animals and plants to a great extent. Plants are great source of
normalizing lives here and balancing the natural cycles however what if we cut the plants without replanting
them. They utilizes all the carbon dioxide gas to make their food in the presence of sunlight but reducing
number of plants continuously on the earth increases the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere which causes green
house effect and increases the environment temperature and then global warming.
Carpooling with neighbours, friends or others is great idea to reduce the carbon dioxide gas emission in the air.
Driving car need the burning of more fuel which creates CO2 as a by-product and gets collected in the
atmosphere. So decreasing the number of driving by everyone may reduce the emission of green house gases
and thus global warming to a great extent. There is a habit to replace plastic water bottles with the reusable ones
in order to lessen the cost, effort and effects of waste disposal. It decreases the amount of trash in landfills as
well as reduces amount of carbon dioxide and methane gas in the atmosphere.
People should choose buying local products from the local manufacturers, farmers, and producers in order to
lessen the consumption of energy in transportation from long distance in order to reduce the carbon footprint.
The effects of global warming can be lessened to a great extent if each and every person becomes responsible
from their own end by having proper understanding and awareness. There are many cheap and simple methods
to reduce the environment temperature as well as effect of global warming. We all need to be equally conscious
and take strict decisions to bring positive environmental changes.

According to me, animals shouldnt be hunted and used for selfish needs of man. Hunting of animals should be
banned as it creates an imbalance in environment. Example: Extinction in the tiger species. Animals have done
nothing to deserve this but still they get killed for no reason. While animals are been hunted they also feel pain,
as humans have a nervous system which allows them to feel pain. In todays day, man has being self centered
and greedy. The day is not far when man will realize the ill-effects of hunting animals. Animals are been hunted
for thrill but why dont he understand that a balance in the environment should be maintained for his benefit.
Man is the creator of crisis, happening recently in the environment. So I feel that hunting is dangerous for the
Environment.
Deepanjali Mishra, IX-F, St. XavierHunting has been a way of life for thousands of years. Its only been over
the past 100 years or so that it has brought conflict among people. As long as the human race has been in
existence, there has been hunting. Even then there were severe consequences resulting from over hunting a

particular species. Hunting may have an effect on the natural predator-prey relationship. It may also have drastic
effects on the habitat that is used by other non-targeted species. There are also benefits from hunting. There are
many groups that are for and against hunting.
Sharon Levy, the author of Hunting Plays a Crucial Role in Maintaining Natural Habitats and the
Environment, says that with proper management hunting can be a good thing. Hunters help to control the
population of their prey. When they become overpopulated, the whole eco-system can be drastically affected.
Native food sources can be depleted very quickly which can result in extinction.

Hunting has been chosen as an activity or sport by Indians since ages. It has been done since the early years for
the evolution mankind. It has been continuing ever since even though now its legally band. Hunting has his own
cons and flaws but more of flaws. According to me hunting is bad for the environment. There is an imbalance in
the environment because the number of animals which are being killed is more than the number of animals
produced. Even though animals are used for many purposes, there are many alternatives available. Elephants
ivory is used for making ornaments. Instead of harming animals, we can just use stones which are provided by
the natural environment stones. There are numerous animals being killed which affect the food chain. Rather
than hurting and killing animals for our advantage we can used alternative and save our environment and
animals live.

The worst occupation that a person can follow is hunting it shows that man has lost his precious value of
kindness. To hunt poor and defenseless animals is a cruel act. It also shows that man can do anything for his
personal interest. Different people hunt animals. Some do it for fun whereas others kill to increase their income.
Hunting should be banned as it disturbs the functioning of our ecosystem. Various animals have gone extinct
and some are on the verge of extinction. A person has quoted Man shows his kind act by helping others but his
cruel nature by killing poor animals.
The after effects of hunting are destructive as seen in various parts of India and other countries like Pakistan
where pests have increased due to death of frogs. Numerous countries have established laws regarding a ban on
hunting but all are ineffective. Hunting leads to destruction of ecosystem and an increase in the population of a
particular species of animals. It also leads to an increase in various microorganisms such as fungi, algae etc.
Which decompose the dead bodies of plants and animals.

Global Warming Causes and Effects Essay 1 (100 words)

Global warming is a major concern nowadays because of the regular increasing temperature of
the whole atmosphere. It is continuously becoming so powerful like a demon. There are many
reasons for its ever increasing nature. The major cause of it is greenhouse gases like carbon
dioxide, nitrous oxide, methane, chloro fluoro carbons, etc which are increasing in the
environment mainly by the human activities. Some of are increasing number of automobiles,
mushrooming industries, fossil fuels combustion, etc. Such activities emit more CO2 in the
atmosphere which enhances global warmth of Earth. This increasing atmospheric temperature
causes glaciers to melt, health disorders

Gender stereotypes/stereotyping
The international human rights law framework is
concerned with gender stereotypes and stereotyping that
affects recognized human rights and fundamental
freedoms.
A gender stereotype is a generalised view or
preconception about attributes or characteristics that are
or ought to be possessed by, or the roles that are or
should be performed by women and men. A gender
stereotype is harmful when it limits womens and mens
capacity to develop their personal abilities, pursue their
professional careers and make choices about their lives
and life plans. Harmful stereotypes can be both
hostile/negative (e.g., women are irrational) or seemingly
benign (e.g., women are nurturing). It is for example
based on the stereotype that women are more nurturing
that child rearing responsibilities oftenfall exclusively on
them.
Gender stereotyping refers to the practice of ascribing to
an individual woman or man specific attributes,
characteristics, or roles by reason only of her or his
membership in the social group of women or men.
Gender stereotyping is wrongful when it results in a
violation or violations of human rights and fundamental
freedoms. An example of this, is the failure to criminalize
marital rape based on societal perception of women as
the sexual property of men.
Compounded gender stereotypes can have a
disproportionate negative impact on certain groups of

women, such women in custody and conflict with the law,

women from minority or indigenous groups, women with
disabilities, women from lower caste groups or with lower
economic status, migrant women, etc.
International human rights law places a legal obligation
on States to eliminate discrimination against women and
men in all areas of their lives. This obligation requires
States to take measures to address gender stereotypes
both in public and private life as well as to refrain from
stereotyping. The Convention on the Elimination of All
Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW)
provides in its article 5 that, State Parties shall take all
appropriate measures to modify the social and cultural
patterns of conduct of men and women, with a view to
achieving the elimination of prejudices and customs and
all other practices which are based on the idea of the
inferiority or the superiority of either of the sexes or on
stereotyped roles for men and women. Other human
rights treaties also require States Parties to address
harmful stereotypes and the practice of stereotyping. For
example, the Convention on the Rights of Persons with
Disabilities (CRPD) also contains in article 8(1)(b)
obligates States to stereotypes and stereotyping,
including compounded stereotypes and stereotyping
based on gender and disability.
