“Slowing Down Global Warming”

 

Main Discussion:  As Hite and Seitz (2016) discuss in Chapter 5: Climate Change, reputable scientific studies continue to show that the Earth is warming at an unsustainable rate because of a rise in the release of CO2 and methane gases. 

Task 1) What is the relationship between population increases and climate change? 2) Discuss possible benefits and/or negative consequences of intentional governmental control of an individual or couple’s decision to have children. 

Task 2) From the “World Bank 2020 List of Developing Countries” (See Course Info) or use internet address, https://www.isi-web.org/index.php/capacity-building/developing-countries?Itemid=167 select two (2) developing countries (that might interest you for the Week 4 Assignment).  Post the names of those two countries of the countries you have selected (to this discussion).
