Fear and Spiritual Realism of Octavia Butler Earthseed Paper Please look up earthseed and know what it is. here is an example that my friend wrote. DO NOT COPY IT OR USE THE SAME QUOTES. it has been provided so that you have an idea of whats going on Today
the world is in a state of resource exhaustion, nonrenewable sources
are being depleted more and more every day. We rely on fossils fuels
for energy and natural springs for water, but these are finite
sources. We are using fresh water at a faster rate than the earth can
produce it and mining oils at rates exponentially greater than the
planet produces them at. In no time we will destroy our own home.
What drives this further is the issue of separation, today we have so
many different communities that differ in many ways. This segregation
makes it difficult for us to all come together and find a solution. A
solution is not far off nor is it hard to grasp as Octavia Butler
explains “I have observed that the main subject of persuasion,
Earthseed, is pragmatically utopian,” (Butler 69) The first step is
education, making people aware of the issues and letting them know it
can be fixed. Butler also states that “Change is inevitable, and
yet its precise nature is not” (Butler 55) meaning that something
will happen, but we have the control over whether the change will be
in our favor or against it. A community must be formed to ensure that
this inevitable change in our favor. However, this community does not
require a physical location. Rather this community must be held
within its members wherever they may be. This way the movement not
only spreads from person to person but is also larger in its impact.
Wherever the community is it must be concentrated enough so that its
members can work coherently and embrace each other’s partnership.
The safety of the community lies in the idea that it is spread out
yet small and concentrated at the same time. No matter what happens
in any location, the community remains safe. Anyone who is willing to
work in partnership with the same mindset and goals may join the
community. People who cannot live in partnership with the community
or the environment may not join. As a leadership model for the
community, everyone must set an example for their neighbor.
Partnership does not have one person superior to another, instead,
everyone must be the shoulder to lean on for the next. To enhance
relationships with the environment new technologies must be made, one
of these could be an improvement in solar energy harvesting. This
would work by instead of using inorganic substances to create
eclectic charge based on photon excitement, we would genetically
modify organisms to synthesize biofuels from multiple wavelengths.
This would substantially increase the efficiency of renewable energy
harvesting and have a cascade effect on many other issues such as
water desalination. Through all these efforts I believe an earthseed
community could not only be sustained on its own but thrive and lead
as an example for the world to follow. The two factors of the
community that will make a better future are collaboration and earth
conservation. When people are connected in a community they are in
sync as one allowing everyone to focus on a common goal and build a
better future. Conservation of the earth resources is a must for the
future, without it there is no future. EARTHSEED PROJECT
