DESTROYING OF NATURE THROUGH THE USE OF
MACHINES (Paper Machines)
BACKGROUND
-Oldest known information carriers are cave paintings.
• History of Paper
-Paper made out of plant like fibres wa invented by
Chinese Cai Lun. (140 to 87 BC)
-Paper making knowledge moves out of China to Korea
and Japan (610 AD)
-Arabic People learned the papermaking from chinese
and spread it through Africa and Europe.
-Further Mechanization and development of the paper
production (1670)
-Sizing of paper (1806)
-Possible to use fibres from wood. (1845)
-The invention of paper machine (end of 19th century)
-Technology behind the paper machine (20th century)
ETHICAL ISSUE

Is it ethical to destroy nature through the use of machines that

can benefit us on everyday life?
PROPOSITION:
ANTI-Deforestration
DEFORESTRATION
- Loss of species
- Soil erosion
POLLUTION
- Air Pollution
- Water Pollution
ETHICAL THEORY

Consequentialism
- Because the consequence of our action will not be seen easily nor today. In
Utilitarianism the act of creating and using paper is for the better good. Even
though that we are destroying our environment, in exchange we can all
benefit from it in different areas. Even though we know what will the cause of
not regulating it, we still producing and using it.
SOLUTION

• Minimizing paper pollution

1. Reduce, Reuse and Recycle
2. Buy recycled paper
3. Encourage the paper industry

• Restoring the ecosystem services provided by forests including carbon storage, water
cycling and wildlife habitat
• Reducing the buildup of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere
• Rebuilding wildlife habitats

save our environment from the threat
