For my persuasive paper I will research the humane society. Humane Society is a charity that cares for abandoned and abused animals. The charity takes care of animals that local shelters are unable to care due lack of resources. This charity also tries to stop animal abuse by making petitions to stop puppy mills, bring attention to wild trade and report pit bull fighting. I have chosen this charity because I had previous experience with this organization. This charity help me save a puppy that I found on the streets last year. Due to the integrity and dedication that this organization had at that one time, it persuades me to pick this charity to be the focus in my paper.
What specifically do your field agency staff do that advancess human rights and social, economic, and environmental justice? A few things that my agency does to advance human rights, and social, economic, and environmental justice is that they advocate for the opportunity for education for all children, especially low income children. They assist the family in the application process to receive free or reduced pre-kay charge, and hold parent meetings that educate them on their rights, and opportunities at the center and also have referred many homeless families to center that offer immediate
It is estimated that more than 1 million people die annually in the United States from heart disease and cancer combined (Leading Causes of Death). What if all of those human lives could have been saved by sacrificing relatively few animals? Conservationists and animal rights activists always have the best of intentions for animals and the environment. They believe that animals should never have to suffer because of the choices human beings make. This view can be unrealistic in many situations. Jane Goodall’s A Question of Ethics was a very emotional and Rogerian style essay, but I found it lacked the supporting facts and credibility that can be found in Heloisa Sabin’s aggressive “classic” styled essay Animal research Saves Human Lives.
Mentioning his own organization offers the audience the verification that the author knows what he is talking about, and the set standards of the programs verification process has a third party, and that is what can establish the ethos of the American Humane Association’s Humane Conservation program. Pathos and Logical Appeal This argument appeals logically to an audience that is concerned about the safety and care of animals in zoos, while establishing pathos effectively to tug at the feelings of the audience in order to strengthen his argument. Since the recent event with a gorilla at the Cincinnati Zoo, people have questioned ethics. The author wrote this argument to explain why the safety of animals, as well as their survival in the future, depends on these enclosures.
Four journalists named Helen Jones, Larry Andrews, Marcia Glaser, and Fred Myers thought it would be a good idea to create a nonprofit organization to help animals that have are treated cruelly by either abuse or when they are left alone. The Humane Society has been helping animals since November 24, 1954(2). Their mission since the beginning has been celebrating animals and confronting cruelty. There are a great number of things that the Humane Society has been doing for the animals, like saving them from people who want to harm them. The list of animals that the Humane Society helps is very long, because they don’t just help the household pets that you might have thought. The conditions of the Humane Society change due to the types of animals
Animal welfare is based on the humane care and use of the animals. Organizations that support animal welfare seek to improve the treatment of animals. The first rule on humane care was established by the Pro Rodeo Cowboy Association in 1947. Seven years before the Humane Society was established. The a...
Founded in 1866, by: Henry Bergh, the ASPCA is the first humane society in America, and one of the largest in the world. Henry's philosophy is that all animals deserve respect by all humans, and must be protected by law (Henry Bergh). In the early years dogs were used to pull carts and work treadmills simply because men couldn't afford horses, but thanks to Henry's diligent efforts, he helped get a law passed prohibiting dogs to work in such environments. The first animal hospital opened in 1912, starting the course for others to follow. Since the ASPCA is privately funded, and a not for profit organization, their supporters reach well over 2 million people. That is very impressive! There are three key factors that keep the ASPCA thriving. They are: the protection for pet parents and pets,
When deciding on which non-profit organization to give resources to, a person must think of a number of questions that need to be answered in which to choose a certain one. The most pertinent of these questions is the one that asks which cause the person cares about the most. The problem, for a majority of the population, is that they just do not know what they truly care about. That is why the United Way is the best option for donations. The United way does not focus on one specific, but instead works for a variety of different causes focused on fixing some of the different problems inside of the United States. The United Way is an organization, which envisions a world where all individuals and families achieve their human potential through education, income stability and healthy lives. It plans to do this by improving lives by mobilizing the caring power of communities around the world to advance the common good. The United Way needs money and time in order to achieve some of these goals. This essay will explain why the United Way is the best organization to give ones resources to.
Furthermore, the proposition states many beneficial outcomes due to it being passed but never do they address any negative outcomes due to it. All of this is done with the right use of word which appeals to the reader’s emotions causing one to vote with their feelings and not their knowledge. What is being stated in the proposition are only things to sway a voter into voting for it. For instance, it talks about how with the money being saved from having fewer inmates in prison will be redirected towards bettering higher education by purchasing learning devices, books, and other material. With this being said, it is obvious that the intended voters are parents of adolescents. The reason being is that parents are the most vulnerable in this
Everyone Is A Monster In Frankenstein, Mary Shelley uses emotional intensity and nature as refuge as her main focus. She tells us that nobody is born a monster, it is society's personal view that makes you who you are. The Monster has been on his own ever since the beginning. He tries to be a good civilized person more than once and fails. Victor shows us what all society will think of him right at the beginning of the chapter.
The humane society is a nonprofit organization, which is a corporation or an association that conducts business for the benefit of the general public without shareholders and without a profit motive. The humane society is also a 501c, a nonprofit American tax-exempt organization. It was founded in 1954 by Fred Myers (1904-1963), its first name was the National Humane Society, later named The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS). Their first mission was to decrease suffering of livestock during slaughter. The Humane Slaughter Act passed in 1958, this would change the lives of millions of animals around America. The Humane Society began investigating animal experimentation around the 1950s to gather evidence on animal neglect or suffering. Myers said,” every humane society should be actively concerned about the treatment accorded to such a vast number of animals.” In 1961 HSUS investigated dog dealers in the U.S. to gain support for a law to be passed that would prevent cruelty to animals in laboratories. The investigation lasted 5 years, then in February 1966 life magazine published an essay about dog dealers and thousands of Americans wrote to their congressional representatives and demanded action to protect animals and stop pet theft. Later that year the Animal Welfare Act of 1966 was passed, the second major federal humane law passed since world war II. Other goals they had during this time were: reduce homeless dogs and cats, reform inhumane euthanasia practices, redact abuses by pet stores and pet breeding trades, and help wildlife and marine life. The head of the humane society organization are the board of directors, which has about 15 members who are all volunteers. Then there is the executive board ...
The infamous ending statement in Herman Melville’s “Bartleby the Scrivener,” “Ah, Bartleby! Ah, humanity!” (Melville 34), signifies not only the tragic demise of the character of Bartleby, but the dismal ruin of mankind as well. This enigmatic statement can be applied to both “Bartleby the Scrivener” and Melville’s other short story, “Benito Cereno.” Both stories are narrated by unreliable characters, leaving further questions on whether or not the Lawyer was genuinely trying to help Bartleby when he showed signs of depression or if the one-sided story of Captain Delano truly portrayed the slaves and their motives for taking over Cereno’s San Dominick. In each of Melville’s short stories, there is an obvious grayness about each tale, the plots of both stories start out slow and unsuspicious, but are then revealed through a dynamic change in events, and each novella has ultimate realities that are hidden through appearances. Together, “Bartleby the Scrivener” and “Benito Cereno” are stories that possess a deep meaning within them which is intended to make the reader question the definition of human nature.

About two months ago, I went to pick up my 8-year-old niece from school. It being the last day of the term, they had been allowed to come to school in home clothes and make up. The first thing I noted was she had adorned on trendy fitting jeans and a t-shirt that had the drawing of Dora the Explorer in glitter and sequins. She also spotted bright red lipstick and some purplish mascara. She looked quite good but as we drove towards their home, I noted that she had difficulties in drinking water from her water bottle. I noticed that any time she wanted to take a sip; she tilted her head backwards, held the bottle at an angle to the mouth and poured the water right in. She then would swallow and put her lips in a pout so as to
Beyoncé once famously exclaimed in her 2006 triple platinum song “Irreplaceable”, “To the left, to the left, everything you own in the box to the left”. Despite astonishingly high rates of voter loyalty, the Democratic Party has been unable to solve many of the issues faced by the African-American Community. Issues such as wealth inequality and mass incarceration have gone largely unaddressed. Much to the dismay of the American pop culture mogul and Democratic strategists alike, the African-American Community should de-align from the Democratic Party and become swing voters. By becoming less attached to one party, the issues facing the African American Community could help reshape policy platforms as Republicans see the community’s vote as more attainable, and Democrats lose the ability to pay lip service to issues without delivering pay-dirt.
Towards animal welfare comes the aspect of animal cruelty. Animal cruelty is a fairly recent subject that has affected society. Animal cruelty has now shown comparisons through human abused households. The concern is recent because as society changes humans attitudes change which now affects towards animals. Animal welfare is used to help animal cruelty, because decreasing the violence between animals and humans can help the regulations of animal welfare.

Many activists today are trying to change the view people see toward the animal they have as a companion. Ethical issues are the many concerns about animals and the question always asked is,”who has the right to control the animal?”
