ESCI D.S5.O2.A5 Earth Science Literacy

Much of what we can do to improve how we use energy and our natural resources depends on how educated the public is. The more citizens are aware of the issues related to resource use and extraction, its impact on Earth systems, and how they can help, the more we can do collectively to lessen our impact. Based on what you have learn throughout this course, I want you to think about what is the most important environmental issue related to energy and resources that we face right now. If you were to want the public to be informed about one thing, what would it be?

Your Assignment: I want you to find an article about a the issue you think is most important. You should then:

1. Paste the URL to the article.
2. Write a paragraph why you believe it to be an important issue and what should be done about it.
