Answer to Problem 11.1CTDQ

An individual would lie emphasis on protecting entire ecosystem while designing conversation strategy.

Explanation of Solution

Endangered species are those species which are in danger of extinction. Examples are whooping cranes and Florida panther.

Flagships species are those species which are interesting or attractive and can motivate people to preserve biodiversity and contribute their efforts for conservation. Examples are giant panda and killer whales.

An individual emphasizes on fact that no species is more important and all are equally important in an ecosystem.

An individual would side with the ecologists that are concentrating on protecting whole ecosystem or communities rather than put efforts to protect flagships species.

This is because every individual or species is dependent on each other to live in an ecosystem. All have the same right to live equally and nobody is at the top positions in an ecosystem.

So, an individual will lie emphasizes on protecting the entire ecosystem while designing conversation strategy.

The desired outcome of the curriculum delivered in environmental studies and sciences (ESS) programs at U.S. universities typically follow one of three ideal models- those focused on the systems sciences, those focused on policy and governance, or those focused on: a. adaptive management. b. environmental resource conservation. c. frontline practices of sustainability. Friedrich Ratzel's concept of lebensraum was turned to expansionist geopolitical ends through a particular reading of the work of Charles Darwin. One of the assumptions that Ratzel made in applying Darwin's ideas to the political world was that both animals and nation-states are: a. changing through the process of evolution. b. engaged in a competition where only the fittest will survive. c. surviving and developing in substantial part through cooperative strategies. In qualitative research, it often helps to distinguish between descriptive codes, which are often categorical or refer to simple…
30. 29. Climate scientist Mike Hulme argued that people who tend to see nature as benign or resilient, and who believe that we can adapt in part by making greener consumption choices and in part by embracing a future that will involve broadly tolerable levels of climate change, tend to be: a. egalitarians. b. hierarchists. c. individualists. Consider the following abstract from a research article published in a peer-reviewed journal titled Geographical Review: "Research on the human dimensions of global climate change should consider the way [that] at-risk populations confront uncertainty through cultural practices. This is a vital point for Indigenous peoples around the world, but particularly for those in the Arctic region where the effects of climate change are most dramatic. The Iñupiat of Arctic Alaska are especially susceptible to climatic and associated environmental changes, because they rely on sea ice to hunt the bowhead whale. [T]his paper reveals Iñupiaq cultural resilience…
