Uganda is always in the middle of things dealing with environmental destruction and population growth. In the articles read today by me, and organization is trying to put the blame of environmental destruction on population growth. While this may be true in some cases, this is one of the least things that concern the environment. They also believe that contraception could possible fix the climate change problem. This is also disproved in the article by the author. They also believe that the reason for poverty due to environmental destruction is the industrial age. The reason for poverty ridden people living in places so environmentally destroyed is because they are poor, not because of the industrial age. The article also says that the destruction of the environment will effect women most of all.
I think this article is a mess. I read up on about ten different topics just skimming through it the first time. There was how the environment effects women and how its bad to have a big population and it lists all these strange organizations that make these outrageous claims with ling abbreviated names. I had no interest in reading this but I soldiered through. The mix of all the different topics and this article just being plain boring made me pay little to no attention to it. I got what it was saying but I didn’t really connect with the main reason behind it like I did with all the other articles I read.
