I agree with Diamond's answer to why some environments are "blessed" by have better farming conditions and animals for food and labor. I agree because when exploring the coast of Australia a person, such as Jared Diamond, will see that there were struggles with plant growth and animals.Although in our society there is no problems when it comes to farming conditions. Some societies are still developing and are left behind in terms of technology, health conditions, and weapons.An environment that has problems with diseases that are cured for in our society, is a factor that considers our environment blessed.
The key factor that facilities inequalities in our global society in my view would be people. I feel that people are a key factor in the inequalities because human nature in people tends to moves them forward or leave them behind. It is up to us to make changes or leave things the way they are. A person off the coast of Australia has the choice of allowing an outsider provide aid to their living conditions. People from different societies are capable of helping other societies. The only factor that affects the person to help or not is if they want to. It is humane to help others and another persons problems their own. The problem is that people don't always feel the need to be beneficial to others, so this results in inequalities in our global society today.
Thank you for your post, Adam!
ReplyDeleteThis post sounds like a good draft of PART of an essay. your paragraph structure is good, and (I think) I see your topic sentence. Your viewpoint is clear, and you compare it to that of someone else well. I really enjoy the humanitarian aspect of the second paragraph. One thing you should do is establish who is Jared Diamond fellow is, and why is his opinion is relevant. Is he a Anthropologist, a researcher, or the barista you chatted with who makes a killer macchiato? It matters who he is. Also you described well thoughts that impede giving help... but what about those that may impede receiving it?
