Wessel’s terms and perform an analysis of a sustained theme in Speth’s work

b) Another way to approach the assignment is to select one of Wessel’s terms and perform an analysis of a sustained theme in Speth’s work, which might appear within different contexts in different chapters. For example, Wessels explores at length the immutable Second Law of Thermodynamics. What theme can you select from Speth’s book, which would confirm (or challenge?) that immutability? Corporate power? Pollution? Biodiversity loss?

c) Any way that seems intellectually productive to you.

2) Bring either Wessels or Speth into conversation with Leopold. Select three of Leopold’s concepts (for example, “substitutes for a land ethic,” “the land pyramid,” etc.) and discuss the ways in which Wessels (or Speth’s) ideas either reflect or challenge Leopoldian theory/understanding about the need for a land ethic.
