In “save the redwoods,” what case does muir make to save the redwoods? in your own words, describe how he develops the idea that redwoods are in danger and provides reasons why people should make the effort to preserve these trees in their environment. use evidence from the text to support your response.

John Muir was a farmer, inventor, naturalist, explorer, writer, and conservationist. He was born on April 21, 1838 in Dunbar, Scotland.

In his novel "Save the Redwoods" John Muir presents the case by presenting mainly two important pieces of information. First, he suggests the fact that the Sequoias are as sacred as a human life. Second, that cutting them down is like killing a human being and we are in consequence committing sin. When he says: "the wrongs done to trees, wrongs of every sort, are done in the darkness of ignorance and unbelief, for when light comes the heart of people is always right" is a call for people to come to their senses to stop the killing of the trees.

Muir presents very convincing arguments to persuade the audience that the redwoods are in danger, for example: "thousands of the finest Sequoias have been felled, blasted into manageable dimensions, and sawed into lumber by methods destructive almost beyond belief". Here Muir is again comparing the life of a tree with the life of a human being to appeal to people's common sense and good nature.

wordsworth tends to see nature as 'out there'; a presence which surrounds humans, and contributes to human life, but is different from humans. if you look at a typical wordsworth poem (there was a boy, ye knew him well ye rocks) - wordsworth talks about nature as something that needs to be learned about and understood, nature is different from us.  

if you look at a byron poem (the isles of greece is a good one) - byron looks at nature mainly for what it already means to man. wordsworth will look at a landscape and see the mountains, trees, valleys, and rivers as almost spiritual presences - wordsworth wants to get to know nature.  

byron will look at the same landscape and he will want to know who lives there, what are the villages? are there any farms or mines, is there some history?  

wordsworth looks at nature for what it is; byron is forever asking what it means.  

wordsworth thinks that humans are part of nature; byron thinks that nature is part of being human
