Space exploration is much too expensive and the money should be spent on more important things.

What is your opinion?

There is an argument that exploring space is a waste of money and that there are more urgent needs to be addressed on earth,
such as reducing poverty and preventing environmental destruction. However, I completely disagree with this opinion for two
reasons.

First of all, many of the technologies we take for granted today were originated thanks to space research. Take satellite
technology, for example, which we depend on for broadcasting and weather forecasting. Without satellites, we would not be able
to follow global events as they happen, nor give populations any warning of approaching storms. Space research has also led to
the development of new lightweight materials that offer us heat protection and enable food preservation. Therefore, the
challenge of sending human beings into space has often driven the development of new technologies that benefit our everyday
lives.

Second, we cannot foresee the distant future, so we ought to develop the capability to escape from the earth. Gradually, we are
learning how humans can survive for long periods in space and even travel to other planets in the future. If space exploration is
halted, this valuable knowledge will never be acquired. It is true that environmental destruction is also a serious issue, but it is
also true that we remain dependent on our environment if we never accept the challenge of exploring other worlds.

In conclusion, while we undoubtedly face serious problems on our own planet, it is imperative that we continue to explore space.
This will promote further technological advances as well as provide a possible means of escape should earth become
uninhabitable in future. Ideally, all nations should cooperate in the advancement of space research.

"International travel has many advantages to both travelers and the country visited.
Do you think advantages outweigh disadvantages?"

I suppose the benefits of international travel would eclipse those analyzed disadvantages. First, travelers can have numbers of
fascinating experiences of exotic cuisine and culture, and they get to see places they have not seen before. A typical example of
this is when tourists from other countries come to Vietnam, they would have the opportunity to use chopsticks, enjoy traditional
meals and go sightseeing in the countryside. Second, the increased number of foreign people coming to visit another country
would evidently enhance tourism industries, contributing greatly to the wealth of that country. If tourists enjoy their trips, they
will recommend the destination to their friends or perhaps they will come back in the future.

Organized tour to remote areas and community is increasingly popular. Is it a positive or negative development for the
local people and the environment?

In recent years, there has been a growing tendency for tourists to travel to remote locations and communities on organised tours.
This has some positive impacts on the local people, but I think the detrimental effects on the environment are more significant
and that the issue is more of a negative development.

The financial and socio-cultural benefits for the locals in remote areas are evident. Tourists visiting these regions  have a high
demand for goods and services, and are mostly willing to pay higher than average prices. This helps to boost local economies in
remote areas and eventually enhance living standards of the local people. Regarding the socio-cultural aspects, Travelers from
different cultures can provide ethnic people in remote areas, who are almost completely isolated from the outside world, with
a lot of experiences through their interactions with one another, which can help these local residents to broaden knowledge
about a more civilized society.

However, the hordes of tourists to remote regions still leave severe impacts on the environment in these areas. In fact, tourists
often litter where ever they go and do not bother to clean after themselves in areas they have visited. This may lead to such
conditions as dirty roads or clogged sewage systems in these places, which negatively and directly affects local people’s living
conditions. In terms of indirect effects, I believe that the indigenous people have to sacrifice their natural resources to
accommodate tourists’ insatiable demands. In several mountainous areas of Vietnam, local people cut down vast areas of forest
to make handicrafts or furniture for tourists. These acts can contribute to the environmental deterioration in remote areas.

In conclusion, though the economy and societies in remote areas can benefit tremendously from organised tourism, I think that
the negative environmental consequences that this situation brings are far more significant

Global warming

Introduction

What is global warming? Global warming is the average temperature of Earth has increases since 1950 until now the
temperature continuing increasing. Global warming can also refers to climate change that causes an increase in the average of
temperature. However global warming are causes by natural events and human that are believed to be contribute to increase in
average temperatures
Causes of Global Warming

Global warming is a serious issue and is not a single issue but a number of environmental issues. Global warming is a rise in the
surface temperature of the earth that has changed various life forms on the earth. The issues that cause global warming are
divided into two categories include “natural” and “human influences” of global warming.

Natural Causes of Global Warming

The climate has continuously changing for centuries. The global warming happens because the natural rotation of the sun that
changes the intensity of sunlight and moving closer to the earth.

Another cause of global warming is greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases are carbon monoxide and sulphur dioxide it trap the
solar heats rays and prevent it from escaping from the surface of the earth. This has cause the temperature of the earth increase.

Volcanic eruptions are another issue that causes global warming. For instance, a single volcanic eruption will release amount of
carbon dioxide and ash to the atmosphere. Once carbon dioxide increase, the temperature of earth increase and greenhouse trap
the solar radiations in the earth.

Finally, methane is another issue that causes global warming. Methane is also a greenhouse gas. Methane is more effective in
trapping heat in the atmosphere that carbon dioxide by 20 times. Usually methane gas can release from many areas. For instance,
it can be from cattle, landfill, natural gas, petroleum systems, coal mining, mobile explosion, or industrial waste process.

Human Influences on Global Warming

Human influence has been a very serious issue now because human do not take care the earth. Human that cause global warming
are more than natural causes global warming. The earth has been changing for many years until now it is still changing because
of modern lifestyle of human. Human activities include industrial production, burning fossil fuel, mining, cattle rearing or
deforestation.

First issue is industrial revolution. Industrial have been using fossil fuels for power machines. Everything that we use is involved
in fossil fuel. For example, when we buy a mobile phone, the process of making mobile phone have involve machines and
machines uses fossil fuels, during the process carbon dioxide is releasing to the atmosphere. Besides industrial, transportation
such as cars is also releasing carbon dioxide from exhaust.

Another issue is mining. During the process of mining, the methane will trap below the earth. Besides, rearing cattle will also
cause methane because cattle released the form of manure. However, cattle is important because it make the latter equally
responsible for the occurrence of global warming

Next is the most common issue that is deforestation. Deforestation is a human influence because human have been cutting down
trees to produce papers, wood, build houses or more. If human continuing deforestation, carbon dioxide will concentrate in the
atmosphere because trees can absorb carbon dioxide from atmosphere. Besides, human also release carbon dioxide when
breathe. Therefore the amounts of millions of people breath have release carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. If human continue
deforestation, human breathing that release carbon dioxide will stay at the atmosphere.

The Effect of Global Warming

The greenhouse gases will stay in the atmosphere for many years since hundreds years ago. However, the effect that global
warming will cause on earth are extremely serious. There are many effects that will happen in the future if global warming
continues. That includes polar ice caps melting, economic consequences, warmer waters and more hurricanes, spread of diseases
and earthquake

First effect is polar ice caps melting. As the temperature increase, the ice at the North Pole will melt. Once the ice melt the first
effect will be raise on sea levels because the melting glaciers become oceans. According to the National Snow and Ice Data
Center “if the ice melted today the seas would rise about 230 feet”. It affects many low lying areas such as the Netherlands. In
future, the Netherlands will be cover by water once the North Pole is melted. However, it is not going to happen so fast but the
sea level will continue rise.

Another effect is the species loss of habitat. Species that include polar bears and tropical frogs will be extinct due to climate
change. Besides, various birds will migrate to other places because animals are not like humans. They cannot adapt the habitat
that changes their living or temperature.

Next effect is more hurricanes will occur and economic consequences still affect as well. Hurricane causes damage to houses and
government need to spend billions of dollars in damage and people need places to stay or have been killed. Once a disaster
happens many people have died and diseases happen. Diseases are more serious because it can spread to other people very fast
and more people will get the disease and the disease maybe come more serious because of different weather.

Solution to Stop Global Warming

Now there are solutions that we can stop global warming. However we human and governments need to move forward to
implement the global warming solutions. To reduce global warming we can do to reduce the contribution of greenhouse gases to
the atmosphere. Therefore, the solutions that we can reduce global warming are reducing gasoline, electricity and our activities
that cause global warming.

To reduce gasoline mean we have a choice to choose a hybrid car that reduce using gasoline. Besides, petrol price are increasing.
If a person everyday drives to work they need to pump petrol after 3 days and causes carbon dioxide. Another way to reduce
gasoline is take public transport or carpool to work. It can help reduce carbon dioxide and save cost.

Another way to reduce global warming is recycle. Recycle can reduce garbage by reusing plastic bags, bottles, papers or glass.
For instance, when we buy foods, we can use our own containers instead of plastic bags. Another example is after finish drinking
the water from the bottle; we can reuse it or use our own bottle. If all this is being reuse, human can reduce deforestation and
help save environment. Besides, turn off electricity if unused. It can save thousands of carbon dioxide and buy product that have
energy saving because it saves cost and save environment.

Finally, human should stop open burning such as burning dry leafs or burning garbage. It will release carbon dioxide and toxic if
burning garbage with plastic. Besides, government should reduce deforestation because the earth temperatures are increasing.
Trees will help to improve the temperature on earth.

Conclusion

Overall of this assignment, I have understood that our earth is “sick”. We humans need to “heal” the earth. Global Warming
have causes many problem for human but we human who make global warming happens. Many people have died because of
disease or disaster. It also affects the economics of the country. However, we need to be reduce the global warming by using less
gasoline, recycle and human should help to reduce global warming instead of making the earth temperature increased. Our
generation should start taking care of the earth because in the next generation they will suffer if we do not do reduce global
warming. Therefore, global warming is a serious issue now. As a business student we are learning it because we need to
understand the effect of climate change that will affect us when we have our business and we can start saving the earth.
