Power Down Hw # 1 (Precis and Analysis)

Precis of Intro.

It's obvious to see tht due to advancement in technology and increase of population, every aspect of our life connects to the burning of fossil fuels. We humns are also so ignorant and blind to see many signs of our environment and our heighboring animals dying.

Analysis

To whatever message this artcle or excerpt expresses, I am totally behind it. It opened my eyes to realize how we are affecting our environment just to suit our technological pleasures. Back in the day humans uses the knowledge from what their parents or teacher tells them and currently we are one-button away to research nuclear chemistry.

In the present days every aspect of our life are made with burnt fossil fuels. "The walls ad fabrics that sorround me are mostly made of ossil fuels," page 2. Machines manufacture the clothes on our back. Machines waould not run without energy. Our shelters are built with big machines, which burn gallons of diesel fuel.

This passage also points out how we are blind to see the signs, researches of other scientist and articles of how we are impacting our sorroundings. Yes, it is important to hear about car bombings but we should take in consideration that there are ournalist and scientist telling us to conserve energy. Instead we are brainwash with non-sense reality TV shows.
