SOLUTIONS: Hope for the Future

The future does not simply have to be bleak - instead in can be filled with amazing hope and cool ideas that can come from you!

Today's class focused on solutions for the geographic issues - whether they be development, environmental, or health-based in nature. We reviewed REAL SOLUTIONS, see handout, and watched a series of video clips. Key concepts:

1. Sustainability - Masdar, Formula 3 race car, Giant Jelly Fish, Algae biofuels
2. Issues surrounding Agriculture - Water Use, Eating Local, Small Farms, Organic Foods, Climate change

Next day there will be a quiz on Geo (Thurs - 2/3) (Friday - 7), on chapters 14, 15, and 17. I will upload a quiz outline to the blog. Please use practice questions as your guide.
