Photo Essay Response

• The photo that is most effective to me is the photo with all the people in the street. It shows a small town street that is packed with thousands of people of all different backgrounds with cars slowly trying to progress through the pandemonium. This photo is effective to me because it shows you how crowded our world can be in places. It makes me think about how populated the world is today and what it will be like in a decade. It generates the feeling of disbelief that the world can be so chaotic.
• I think the writing is most effective when they start giving you the numbers of the world population many years from now. In the essay it says, "United Nations Division report estimating that the worlds population will increase by 40% or more, from6.7 billion in 2007 to 9.2 billion in 2050" I think this passage is most effective because it shows you how exponentially our earth's population really grows. It makes you wonder how packed will it be in 50 or 100 years and will there be enough resources to provide for all of those people.
• For me nature gives me everything I own and everything in this world. I feel that it is fine to use the resources that nature gives us, however, we need to be careful about how much we use and where we get it from. The thing in nature that means the most to me is, as I said, all that it has to offer to us. From resources and sources of live to its beauty and art. This means the most to me because it makes me realize that with out it there would be nothing including us as humans.
