Essay Problem: Earth
Consider how Stephen Jay Gould suggests that life doesn't really have a clear progressive plan (in the first essay) but then also argues for ethical and environmental progress (in the second essay). In particular, how does Gould reconcile these very different themes (absence of clear evolutionary progress versus the need for ethical/environmental progress)? Relate to own viewpoints and values. Does any of this help you contextualize your educational, moral, and social pursuits?
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
