Today, we finished watching the film Flow. The students then broke into assigned groups in order to answer the questions. Once these were handed in, they were given the questions to answer for Chapter 13. These are located below. They are also due tomorrow.
Chapter 13: Questions
INSTRUCTIONS: Read all of Chapter 13: Impacts on Environments (p 268 – 285). Then answer the following questions (point form is fine).
1. People used to develop the resources they needed locally; today, this is not the case. How does globalization affect resource development?
2. A specific example of this is found in Alberta. Explain the development of this resource, how much we benefit, and the problems we are or could be faced with as a result.
3. What perspectives are there about developing the Oilsands? Place the perspectives on page 275 on a continuum.
4. What alternatives have been suggested instead of oil? What are the pros and cons?
5. Should land be left in its natural state or developed for human uses? Examine the perspectives presented, reach a decision and then justify your reasons.
6. How does the global community attempt to resolve resource development and environmental issues? (mention the agreements and legislation and explain them as well)
