Reflection
About the chief seattle quote. I think this quote means that without beasts the man is not worth nothing because the man is going to feel extremly bad of emptiness on its spirit. And what ever it happens to the beast is going to happen to the man which I think that is something very true, because from extinction from other animals we have been affected too. Also imagine if we have not protect the humpback whales right know and they were extincted, that is going to affect us very much because we will loose money from tourism and other things. So I think that this phrase haves sense and I think that we should take the meaning of this phrase in mind and use it to solve problems with species that are in extinction.
Even though the movie "Star Trek: The Voyage Home" is a fictional movie it really gives a great message. It shows how whales are important and how we should protect them as they do. Today we can understand why the whales are so important. It's difficult to imagine how back in the 80's people that made the movie could understand why whales were so important and why we need to save them. Today we can see the reasons of it and I think that we need really need to make an action plan to stop those countries that continue hurting them to stop it. They need to understand that with whale watching we can earn more money and thus we can keep the whales alive without hurting it. Believe it or not some countries like the Dominican Republic earn about ten million dollars a year from whale watching which really affects in a positive way the Dominican economy. So I think that this movie really haves a great message and makes sense just as the chief phrase.
About the diversity code clip I think that it really makes sense how humans connect with all the other animals around and how if we affect them they are going to affect us. I did not understand how this works until the video showed me the web diagram. I will really like if this video could be expanded all over the world so that people could understand better how dangerous is to put animals under a threat. However going back to the clip I think that this clip was really good and comprehensable and it taught me in a good way how it affects humans putting in danger other animals. So you can relate how humpback whale will affect us negatively if we affect them negatively.
In conclusion, I think that all these thing taught me something great, and something that can change the world. I hope that these things (The phrase, clip, Star treck movie) can help everyone understand that animals are important.
