Consciousness In Animals : 20 pages in length. When one
considers the concept of consciousness, it is with great
hesitation that its traits are attributed to those who represent
the animal kingdom. However, what mankind has typically
done is employ the human form of consciousness when
applying it to animals, making it quite difficult for them to
meet up to such an adaptation. Indeed, while animals may
not possess the prerequisites for human consciousness,
which not only include awareness of external events or
phenomena, but also of one's own feelings, beliefs, and
mental events, they do harbor their own form of
consciousness that often transcends mankind's reality-based
existence. That humans are able to reason and communicate
through spoken language does in no way preclude the rest
of the animal kingdom from also inherently possessing a
distinct and definite consciousness; just because man
believes that he is the only species to maintain a state of
consciousness is no proof that it does not exist elsewhere.
The writer defends the position of consciousness in animals.

History of American Environmentalism: In Forcing the
Spring, Robert Gottlieb offers a biased history of American
environmentalism that focuses on the need to change from
conservation and preservation of natural resources and
wildlands to increased efforts in the direction of a more
"grass roots" organization that takes into consideration the
humanitarian concerns embedded within the environmental
movement. State of the World: 1999, the Worldwatch
Institute's 16th annual report on "progress toward a
sustainable society," begins where Gottlieb leaves off, that
is, with a prescription for a sustainable economy. The
primary components of the model are subsidy reform, tax
reform, regulatory reform, global cooperation, industrial
innovation, and grassroots support. This 5 page paper
examines the two viewpoints and concludes with the
argument that de-centralization is at the mercy of the
centralized organizations already in place and even more at
the mercy of the governmental forces. Bibliography lists 2

Land Developers Vs. Environmentalists : 15 pages in length.
For as long as there has been land to exploit, there has also
been a war raging between the developers and the
environmentalists. Indeed, the battle that exists is one that
claims to benefit both sides of the issue: the developers for
the people and the environmentalists for the land and its
resources. While each party believes what they are doing is
the right thing, they unquestionably clash when it comes to
their overall purpose. The writer discusses the ongoing
battle between environmentalists and land developers.
