The Environment Ministry has rejected at least 9 projects across India — saying they would destroy the habitat of endangered animals. Of 25 projects submitted to the Standing Committee of the National Board of Wildlife for approval, nine have been rejected outright. If these projects had been cleared it would have sliced open the habitat of the tiger, the red panda and the Indian gharial. India’s Environment Minister Jairam Ramesh,says that they are not hinering development they are just respecting the animal's habitats and the wildlife protection act.

The USA has established a unique culture of gun violence

The USA established a unique culture of gun violence. Approximately 11 thousand homicides happened in the US in 2002. Gun violence is brought up quite a bit in the evening news. The government keeps fighting wars, which is not a good example either. Charleston Heston went to promote guns to places that just had shootings.
In the evening news gun violence news gets brought up frequently. An example of that would be how Columbine high school shooting gets broadcasted on the news. Also how they make shows like “Cops” showing people continually breaking laws and getting arrested. They also show incidents like what happen in “Cops” on the evening news. The twin towers crashing were also on the news often. They have the president talking about wars and killings a lot too. The evening news influences people to do gun violence because why not if every one else is?
The Government keeps fighting wars which could influence the people of America to fight. In 1953 they overthrow the president of Iran and put in a dictator. 1954 they overthrew the president of Guatemala which killed 200,000 civilians. In 1963 backs assassination of South Vietnamese president. 1963- 1975 Americans kill 4 million people in Southeast Asia. If authorities like the president support killings in places far away how can they expect the people of their country to show a better image? If the government doesn’t want the people within their country to kill people, they should not project a view of America being killers world wide.
Charleston Heston went and promoted guns to two different places right after they had killings. He went to Columbine right after the high school shooting. He went there to try and project a view that guns were not a bad thing. He also said that guns were great for protection and that America should protect itself. He also went to Flint right after a 6 year old boy killed a 6 year old girl to project the same view. It was pretty much a slap in the face for both places. They had just lost friends and family because of shootings. Then Charleston Heston has the nerve to show up in their towns to say guns are good. That is not going to help for people to be less violent with guns.
The USA has a unique culture of gun violence. Some people may even shoot others just to be on the news. Others do to follow in the presidents foot steps. Some have always been taught differently. It’s scary to think about how many more homicides there are in the US compared to the rest of the world. No one wants gun violence but then why does the US influence it?

bowling for columbine.

michael moore is trying to put across the point that america is scared which makes them be more violent. for example the reason why the columbine shooters shot themselves after they attacked the school was because they were scared about what would happen to them. michael moore is also trying to get people thinking about who is the reason for this. many people have answers but what is the real reason or are their many answers.

michael moore supports his argument in many ways. he supports it with statistics millons of people die every year because of americans. americans also have by far the largest number of homocides. he also supports it in animation witch shows that ever since the people came from europe to america they have been scared. that is why they came in the first place;because they were scared. he also has an interveiw with merilyn manson who many believe is the cause for many killings.in the interveiw they covered why would only americans react to his music that way.they also listen to his music in other parts of the world and there is not nearly as much killing there. they also say that the president is responsible for alot of it because look at all the people americans kill over seas.michael moore also is trying to get across that the gun laws are way too leanient.
