Which environmentalist do you feel made the greatest contribution to environmental science today? Why?

In my opinion I think that Franklin Delano Roosevelt made me feel that he has done great accomplishments towards the environment. He has done many things including establishing the WPA, CCC, AND TVA. These programs employed men to plant trees, build roads and paths on the national parks and controlled flooding. He allowed many people to get easy job to hat least have a little bit of money in their pockets.

based upon Ch 1 where do you think humans are having the most impact? Why?

Based on reading chapter one in my opinion i think that humans are having the most impact on the environment because with all this new technology we are using so many new things. Like brand new cars that are making us use more gas and letting air pollution. Which is causing more global warming. And the population of humans is causing more harm to the environment because the are many people living in poverty, and were being to use more resources.

Define and give examples of order, randomness and complexity

Order is when everything is in its place, and when it's easy to find. Some examples of order are like a binder that is very near and that has tabs to separate the different classes, subjects, etc. A room can be an organized, and so can a locker, and many other things. Randomness is when there is no pattern or a reason to certain thing. Most of the time there is a probability if something happening. An example of randomness is a dice, because you never know what number you will roll. Complexity is when something seems to be very complex and impossible to do. An example of complexity is when play a game and there is one very strict rule that you cannot break.

what i know about the environment is that it has to do the plant and its natural resources. Like energy sources such as nuclear energy, wind energy, geothermal energy, and solar energy. I would like to learn more about the animals that live on our planet and how they contribute to the many diseases that have come from them. i would like to learn about the disease that are causing harm to both animals and the human race, and what is being done to prevent these diseases.
