Essay #3 Topic

In our class we have discussed, in depth, the cultural influence of Americans who were fighting for equality. In today's day and age I strongly believe that our art, culture, and everyday life needs to be a fight for the bigger picture: taking care of our precious Earth. I chose to write my essay on the works of greenpeace freelance photographer Daniel Beltran. He is an amazing artist who has captured some very remarkable photos which display the different effects that our consumerist society has effected our rainforests and natural glaciers. I would be using to the "Story of Stuff" videos as background sources as well as several scholarly journals and articles.

  1. Great topic, Yessenia! Is there an image you can post so we can see some of his work (you can find an save lots of images from google images). You'll want to pick one image in particular as a focus, while talking about his overall goals as a writer.
