Compare and contrast a graceful loser versus one who loses in a less than dignified manner. Provide examples to justify the answ

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

A graceful loser is a person that takes a loss "on the chin" and does not act bitter, but instead congratulates the winner in a non-malicious manner.

For example, if a player loses a tennis match and is quite happy to go across the court to shake the hands of his opponents, wish him well and walk away, then he is a graceful loser.

On the other hand, a person who loses in a less than dignified manner is a person that throws tantrums, complains, or rejects the result of a match because he feels he was treated unfairly or his opponent did not deserve the win.

An example is a tennis player attacking the umpire, shouting and rejecting the outcome because he feels some of the umpire's calls were wrong and his opponent was lucky to win

Discussion:

Growing up, we all learned an important, simple principle: Clean up your own mess.

As transitioning to renewable energy becomes more urgent to control the worst effects of climate change, the government needs to raise funds to help build a more sustainable country and world.

In essence, it only does make sense that the companies that have helped fuel the climate crisis should be cleaning up the mess they started.
