Many hazardous chemicals can also be transported in our oceans, atmosphere and food chains and accumulate in places far away from their original source. They have been found to build up in the bodies of animals including birds, fish, whales, polar bears and even human breast milk. The problem and the solution are therefore not only a cause of local concern. This is a truly global issue.

Of these brand owners, one group stood out in particular as the most likely champions of a toxic-free future - the world’s largest sports brands. Not only are these brands self-proclaimed leaders and innovators, but they have the size and influence to work with their suppliers to begin bringing about real change on the ground and eliminate the use and release of these hazardous chemicals.

This photo and its caption have a lot of impact on the reader. The caption describes discoloured water which can be seen in the collector's sample bottle. Futhermore, the photo shows an odd yellow sludge/waste coming out for the pipe. In the background of the photo, you can see the turbid river water and smoggy air. What is particularily effective is the use of hyperbole. The odd looking sludge is the largest and central object in the photo, dwarfing the person standing next to it.

Photo # 11 in the slide is particularily effective because the subject of the photo is covering his mouth and nose with his hand while looking down at the discoloured redish purple water coming out of the discharge pipe. When we read the caption, we find that he is doing this due to the terrible stench of the water. Both the caption and the subject's reaction in the photo make the experience more real for the reader as we can imagine the experience as if we were there.

Now we have to remember that this site in only for Canada and Canadian costumers. After my visits to multiple sites from different countries I noticed the differences in the layout of the home page. Maybe its a strategy that the bank takes to make whats proper for users in different countries and have the services available for each country presented differently in each website for them.

This slogan that make me respect them always, "The world's local bank" which emphasizes on the world being a one country and it is the local one for the whole world. It is nonnegotiable that it is a well deserved slogan since the bank is expanded to 100 countries. The Ethos is the mean of persuasion that is used claiming the proficiency that is approved by the whole world and the number of countries that are doing business with them. The slogan simply lays four words that appeal the high standard of knowledge, reputation and proficiency.

This site caught my attention immediately. It looked soothing, it is easy to read and it deals with a delicate subject that affects many people. I think the colors of the page accomplished what it probably set out to do, which was create calm. Let's not forget, we are dealing with depression. This subject means something to me as I suffer from it on occasion. I can associate with this personally. The subject is not so much a controversial one, however, those who don't suffer from depression have been known to say, "Get over it!", which can be a negative experience for one in the throws of depression. I think the writers' purpose here it to inform and explain the symptoms of the disease as experienced by those it affects. I believe it also provides a forum for those who simply want to explain where they are at in their depression and to encourage others to understand that this is real and it affects many. It also serves more than one purpose as it provides suggestions on how to deal with it.The thesis, or the overall main point is basically to let the disease speak for itself and allow others to comment on the subjectThe tone of the text is relaxed and does not create feelings of unrest. It provides answers and links to all issues surrounding the subject of depression. I really liked the graphics of what appears to be grass. I imagine laying down in it and breathing in the fresh air. I also took a shine to the dandelions on the right side and I specifically liked the "I'm done hiding" at the top of the page. Many people hide the depression as they are embarrassed. The highlighted areas are stand out texts for me.

Logos is achieved as the words are logical. Pathos is achieved as it appeals to my emotions because I have first hand knowledge of this sickness called depression. Ethos is achieved because I trust and believe the written word.

If you can smell fragrance on your clothes when you get them out of the dryer, you are using too much detergent
-
Overuse of laundry detergent is not only wasteful and expensive, but very harmful to our environment and our health.
-
The Solution: A big step forward in removing harmful chemicals from your home, body and environment is going detergent-free. After washing a fabric a few times with SmartKlean, you can completely eliminate all traces of detergent. With SmartKlean there is no need for laundry detergents, fabric softeners or dryer sheets. Our laundry ball is designed to wash effectively, leave clothes soft and leave zero residues behind on clothes and linens. For those with skin sensitivities or conditions such as eczema, SmartKlean is ideal. It is important to note that even the trusted eco-friendly, hypoallergenic laundry detergents may contain SLS and SLES and other harsh chemicals. In addition, many soaps found in grocery stores contain additives that can still cause skin irritations. Although there are safer alternatives such as true soap, the easiest to use and by far the most economic choice for cleaning laundry is the SmartKlean Laundry Ball.

Then there’s eczema. Throughout the world, many people suffer from this condition. In the US over one billion dollars a year is spent trying to fight its effects. Sadly, many of these are children. 90% of eczema sufferers experience symptoms before they reach the age of 5. A common type of eczema, ‘irritant contact dermatitis’, develops after frequent exposure to a mild irritants such as detergent.
-
The Problem: Regular laundry detergents leave residue in your clothes and linens each time they are washed. It is easy to verify this by smelling them. After eight washes, two percent of a garment’s weight comes from detergent residue. For people with skin sensitivities, this residue can not only cause severe skin irritations, but can also cause fabric to stiffen when it dries. Because of this, fabric softener is used to lubricate the fibers in order to make the fabric move freely again. Although it takes care of the itchy, stiff fabric, it only adds to the pile of chemical residues.

The green ball appeals to your logic in understanding that green things are eco-friendly. The pictures of the minerals inside the ball help you understand that there is something involved in cleaning your clothes, even if it is not detergent. Your brain understands that a substance of some sort will do cleaning while an empty ball would not.

Unable to procure a chair from the lodge where I’ve been staying while in transit, I camped out on the floor, MacBook on lap, more than one-hundred manuscript pages for my next book strewn about the small room. I put on three shirts and two pairs of socks, yet still shiver as I type away on various edits and revisions.

The text that reads "Join Riot Games" is big, noticeable, and written weird. This could just be an add to attract new employees, but I think it's also a marketing tool. This add makes this company seem more like a locally owned business, rather than a big corporate giant, making people feel more comfortable around it. (text)
