Essay topics: In the past century, the steady growth of the human population and the corresponding increase in agriculture and pesticide use have caused much harm to wildlife in the United States —birds in particular. Unfortunately for birds, these trends are likely to continue, with the result that the number of birds in the United States will necessarily decline.

First, as human populations and settlements continue to expand, birds' natural habitats will continue to disappear. Forests, wetlands, and grasslands will give way to ever more homes, malls, and offices. As the traditional areas suitable for birds keep decreasing, so will the size of the bird populations that depend on those vanishing habitats.

Second, agricultural activities must increase to keep pace with the growing human population. The growth of agriculture will also result in the further destruction of bird habitats as more and more wilderness areas are converted to agricultural use. As a result, bird populations in rural areas will continue to decline.

Third, as human settlements expand and agriculture increases, the use of chemical pesticides will also increase. Pesticides are poisons designed to kill agricultural and home garden pests, such as insects, but inevitably, pesticides get into the water and into the food chain for birds where they can harm birds. Birds that eat the poisoned insects or drink contaminated water can die as a result, and even if pesticides do not kill birds outright, they can prevent them from reproducing successfully. So pesticides have significantly contributed to declines in bird population, and because there will continue to be a need to control agricultural pests in the future, this decline will continue.

The article and te lecturer are both about influence of decline of birds population in USA. The author of reading feels that population, agriculture and pesticide use much harm to birds population. The lecturer challenges the claims the made by the author.T he lecturer thinks that that reasons are not harmful to the decreaseing birds population.

First of all, the author argues that human population and settlements continue to expand, birds habitats will contie to disappear. The article is mentioned that natural and traditional areas will give to make homes, malls and offices, the birds population that depend on those vanishing habitats. This point is challenged by the lecturer. He claims the many birds live in the urban and large human population areas. Furthermore, he says pigeon hokes, folken birds are live in those urban areas.

Secondly, the author suggest that increase the agriculture and expand the lands for agriculture also destruction of bird habitats. The article notes that more and more widlerness araes conver to agriculture use.T he lecturer rebuts this argument. He suggsts that USA has less land for agriculture. He elaborates on this mentioning that the few lands use for agriculture, there use new verity of crops and they give more foods to human and birds.

Finally, the author states that pesticides indirectly influnece poison to birds. Moreover, birds eat poisoned insects or drink contamined water can die birds. In contrast, the lecturer's position is that traditional was and much less pesticide use for crops. He notes that mostly use more pesticide resistant crops and they wan't threatent to birds.
