The reading and the lecture both deal with the use of wood products. The author of the reading believes that the consumption of wooden items must be decreased as it causes harm to the environment by changing globat climate, deforestation and wildlife destruction. The lecturer asts doubt on the claims made in the article She thinks that utilization of wooden products is not harmful in any way, as neither are animals affected nor it leads to reduction in number of trees.
First, the author points out that the popularity of wood commodities has contributed to rise in deforestation, specially in the Amazon forest; consequently causing global temperature rise. It is mentioned that the Amazon soaks up much amount of total CO2 present worldwide. This point is challenged by the lecturer she says that actual reason for deforestation is calling down of trees lur livestock and timber Furthermore, she argues that the companies do not only cut down the trees for manufacturing of their products, but also plant as many trees as are being cut down.
Secondly, the author contends that, there is another problematic issue raised due to production of wooden products, which is ruination of flora and fauna The artide notes that the increase in human activity adversely affects animal populations and can even result in the extinction of many species. The lecturer rebuts this argument. She suggests that the wildlife organisms have got so much space to live in the forests, that they can easily adjust themselves according to the human activity occuring in the wild, hy shifting themselves to the areas with no interruption by mankind.
Finally, the author asserts that the abolishment of plastic bags, as they are non biodegradable, has bloomed the use of paper bags. The article establishes that paper bags are equally harmful for the nature, because their manufacturing is degrading the forests. The lecturer on the other hand posits that paper bags are best replacement for plastic bags, as they do not harm in any way, like the plastic bags does.
