Increasing in the Population
Issitt, MicahWarhol, Tom. "Counterpoint: Controlling Population Growth Is Essential." Points Of View: Population Growth (2013): 3. Points of View Reference Center. Web. 27 Mar. 2014.
The population grows quickly approximately 9 billion. The article showed the people will not be able to get enough sources if the overpopulation continue. We have to control the population. The UN stated that the population will be 70 million persons every year and in 2050 will be more than 9 billion. Also the population reached the highest level in 1987 and was 87 million. So the scientists warned it will be environmental and social problems. For example, the people will fight each other to get the resources. We must try to lease or decreasing the population by any type of controlling like to organize the reproduction or build a system that makes population under the controlling especially in China. That is going to preserve the limited resources more time.

The article was presenting some information about the population issue from the points of views from the library of Texas A&M CC by Micah L. Issitt who is working as freelance writer/researcher and Tom Warhol who is working as Marketing and Development Coordinator. On the other hand, the author was objective, critical and kind of angry about the issue. Because he appeared to stand to stop the issue and gives plan to control it. In addition, he was biased to be worth eliminating this issue. In general, all the information that came in the article was reliable in my point of view and well researched, because it’s from the UN. Some of it was current according to the UN like2013 and the other was old ...

... middle of paper ...

...anet. the United Nations stated that the population is going to reach more six billion. We have to decrease our trash of food because there are a lot of people need it.

The article is from USA Today Magazine. It`s popular magazine. And there was no specific writer appearing in the source.The author was praising in the agricultural to get the benefits from and it’s a good solution for many problems. He was subjective and try to persuade the readers to pay attention for agricultural. Furthermore, he was biased because he is kind of pushing the people forward to the agricultural. All the information was appearing as well-researched because the author used information from the United Nation. Also, it’s current because its since 2011 and reliable. Finally, it's not related with my topic exactly because the article focused on the agricultural more than overpopulation.

    However, the good is outweighed by the bad in that this article has almost no factual support. Worley seems to be venting her thoughts without any outside factual support. It is difficult to label this article as effective due to the lack of any factual support and evidence to back up her arguments. That is exactly what needs to change in the article. Worley must use more sources for information to back up her points, then the article may be more convincing and worth

    ...ticle, I decided to choose a topic that many people were concerned about approximately one year ago. As it says in the article, the world was never going to come to an end, and people had nothing to worry about. Despite evidence being presented from some very credible sources people will worry no matter what experts say, it’s just human nature. This source was a good source to use to sum everything up that I had learned from my previous sources. The information in the article was peer reviewed, therefore I believe that the article was a credible source of information. The information was presented in a clear and direct manner and in no way confusing. The information provided in this source fits fairly well with my topic. Overall it was a worthwhile source for my subject and I would definitely use articles and sources published by Sarah McCarry again in the future.

  • Vaccines: Annotated Bibliography: Vaccines

    1498 Words  | 3 Pages

    The author is trying to persuade readers to his opinion that vaccinations should be required. The majority of the claims are opinion based, with factual evidence used as support. The logical argument of preventing deaths via vaccinations is used, however the article is also purposely introducing fear and guilt. The facts used could sway a reader to the author’s side by making them fear the other option. The article argues it is a citizen's responsibility to be vaccinated, and that not doing so could hurt innocent bystanders. Both these statements conduce an emotional response. The evidence use to support the article is supported by similar facts from other sources but is not well cited within the article nor is an opposing viewpoint addressing the possible consequences of vaccinating mentioned.The information is clearly presented but is meant to create an emotional reaction and does not cite many direct sources or address the opposing

  • Work-Family Conflict and Health

    1066 Words  | 3 Pages

    I learned that the article gave some effects on balancing work and family. The author’s message is to prevent and inform work-family conflict. Jansen was trying to get employees to adjust to the working arrangements across to her audience. The argument here was quite implicit. The method the author uses is logical data, and facts, and statistics to get her point across also. I know that the author. Nicole Jansen, is the CEO and Founder of Discover the Edge. She also helped individuals and organizations earn millions of dollars. She actually contributes more than needed for my research paper, and does not affect my research. The intended audience is people who is looking to figure out if they can overcome their work-family conflict. This source was meant to be seen by the public’s eyes. This source is very forceful.

    737 Words  | 2 Pages

    In his article, he tries to show readers his ideas and concepts with examples. For instance, he chooses example of Nazism when he claims racial differences regard as a cultural perspective from a biological perspective which was disliked causes of Holocaust by Nazism. (Malik 86) He also picks French to explain all people who have common language do not have a common recognition against the world. (Malik 86) These examples are related to his arguments when he claims ineffectiveness of dying language so examples he gives in the article can make his ideas simply because the readers are likely to imagine how the author tries to say ineffectiveness of dying language. Also, these examples are reliable for readers because he uses factual references and examples which is one of the techniques in article “Thinking and Reading Critically”. His idea is strengthened by using this technique. For example, in “Let Them Die”, he says “Today, biological notions of racial difference have fallen into disfavor, largely as a result of the experience of Nazism and the Holocaust”.(Malik 86) Nazism and the Holocausts are very famous institution and event in world history as everyone knows. People are likely to think about how much the author wants to discourage preservation of dying language. These examples show how you can convince people well because factual example can be a reliable evidence, and support claims to make easy to understand for

    To successfully support their claim through a logical approach, the writers utilize statistics and citations from authorities. Based on demographics, appealing to the audience through logic can be an effective approach to convincing them that their argument is correct.

The article beings with statistics about the number of people involved in sex trafficking; it states that sex trafficking is “a global phenomenon that may involve upwards of 27 million people.” The article continues by mentioning that sex trafficking is becoming a ...

    Milbank explains the issues and The United Nation’s investigation of the Obamacare repeal, using ¨loaded¨ words, otherwise known as persuasive diction, in order to appeal to their liberal audience. The office of UN human rights wrote a paper urging Trump to not repeal Obamacare; ultimately, denying affordable health care becomes a violation of basic human rights. (Milbank, Dana) The author’s intended audience are american liberals. You can conclude this by looking at the demographics of Washington Post’s audience which show majority of the readers are consistently/mostly liberal.

  • Sustainability of The Global Food System

    1117 Words  | 3 Pages

    In order for us to maintain our lives, we need to consume food to supply nutrient-needs for our bodies. As the global population increased, the demand for food also increased. Increased population led to mass production of foods. However, even with this mass production, in under-developed countries, people are still undernourished. On other hand, in developed and developing countries, people are overfed and suffering from obesity. In addition, the current methods of industrial farming destroy the environment. These problems raised a question to our global food system. Will it be able to sustain our increasing global population and the earth? With this question in my mind, I decided to investigate the sustainability of our current global food system.

But I would the article validity would be weak since the reasons he gives aren’t really factual.
