Discuss any two environmental problems and the negative consequences associated with each of these problems. Name one type of global response to environmental problems and provide an example.
What will be an ideal response?
Correct answer varies but should discuss any two of these problems: destruction of natural habitat; adverse effects on marine life; decline in freshwater (water pollution, marine pollution, scarcity of water, water inequality, flooding); desertification; global warming (drying and wetting of areas, loss of glaciers, greenhouse gasses, changes in weather patterns, rise of sea levels, rising temperatures that speed up pollution problems, disease in animals and insects). Global responses include the fact that problems are traceable to the capitalist economy, and different efforts have tried to address them through sustainable development and technological fixes.
