Other Out for a walk Your assignment this week will be your first paper. You are to address the following questions: In the chapter “Health Coverage for Primates,” pgs. 92-115 in your text Four-Fifths a Grizzly, author Douglas Chadwick writes at length about the benefits we receive from being in green spaces, from time in the natural world. What are the psychological, physical, and emotional benefits to humans? Be specific. What physical changes occur in the body that generate these benefits? What are the psychological and emotional benefits? Chadwick provides a great deal of material on this subject so there is much for you to use in this assignment. The bulk of your paper should focus on this first question. You may use additional resources but make sure you cite them within the body of the paper and in the Works Cited. Do you have a favorite green place that you like to visit? Or maybe a place you once visited on vacation and would like to go back to? Where is it and what makes that place special to you? If not, is there a place you would like to go? Douglas Chadwick argues that when we spend time in the natural world, we are stepping back into our heritage; that we are an integral and elemental part of the natural world, and that we share a kinship with every visible and the mostly invisible organisms that inhabit this planet. Habitat loss through destruction, degradation, and fragmentation is the primary threat to the survival of wildlife, and with their loss, our natural spaces are being lost. This ultimately will imperil our lives as well. So how do we save our habitats in the face of increasing global demand for the resources they provide?
