Social science – sociology week 10 assignment – critical threats to | SOC 450 – Solutions to Global Issues | Strayer University

 

Overview

The United Nations has continued to retain you as a consultant for a  project that deals with climate and the environment. Most developed  countries see the dangers of releasing too much carbon dioxide into the  atmosphere and are committed to climate policies that attain a  carbon-free future in the next 30 years. They already see the damaging  effects that this gas alone is having on the living conditions of crops,  wildlife, and humans. As a result, many member states are dissatisfied  with the progress of the eight Millennium Development Goals for  international development that they established in 2000. The member  states see a substantial disconnect between several issues that  developed and developing countries believe are priorities. For example,  Burundi wants one of the goals to focus on food security, while Austria  is adamant that a major global issue should be the negotiation of  ceasefires in countries in the midst of civil wars. The UN wants you to  work from the list below and prioritize two of the global community’s  threats that it deems the most serious to environmental stability.

Instructions

Step 1

Select two threats. Listed below are eight issues that the UN feels  pose the most significant threats to global security. Some of these  apply to the Earth’s 7.7 billion people, while others are limited  primarily to developing countries. Regardless of where these threats are  concentrated, your job as a consultant is to identify two of them that you consider the most critical to the globe’s population.

Issue Options

  1. The use of fossil fuels as an energy source.
  2. Globalization.
  3. Insufficient educational opportunities in developing countries.
  4. A lack of access to technology.
  5. Civil war (NOT the U.S. Civil War).
  6. The rise in oceans’ levels.
  7. Covid-19 and the global pandemic.
  8. The dangers of poor countries remaining poor.

Step 2

Write a minimum of an 8-page persuasive paper about your two threats.

Write an introduction paragraph of at least one-half page in length  identifying the two threats you have selected and the purpose of the  paper. Then, for the two threats you chose:

  1. Identify the factors that make it such a serious risk to the global environment that you would choose to present it to the UN.
  2. Analyze the role that humans have played in aggravating this threat to the Earth’s environment.
  3. Suggest initiatives that the global community can take to mitigate the worst effects of this environmental threat.
  4. Write a conclusion paragraph of at least one-half page in length  that summarizes your impressions of these risks for global stability.

Guidelines

  1. This course requires the use of Strayer Writing Standards (SWS). The  library is your home for SWS assistance, including citations and  formatting. Please refer to the Library site for all support. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
  2. In order to earn full credit, the answers to each of the three questions must be at least two full pages long, making six  pages. You must also include the one-half-page introduction and  one-half-page conclusion at the beginning and end of the paper, adding  up to one page of content. Finally, you must include a graph or table (see 5, below) that will be at least one page in length. The entire paper will be a minimum of eight pages long.
  3. You must use at least seven credible sources (excluding Wikipedia, dictionaries, and encyclopedias) that are appropriate for the subjects under discussion.
  4. You must use only double-spacing and not place extra spacing between paragraphs or section headings.
  5. As part of your answer to any one of the questions, you must include a graph, table, or chart using quantifiable data that supports your argument. You need only one graph for the entire assignment, and although you may download this item from the Internet, it may be no longer than one page  in length. You must comprehensively explain beneath the graph what the  data means. Otherwise, it will be of no use to the reader.

The specific course learning outcome associated with this assignment is as follows:

  • Propose suggestions for mitigation initiatives that address the threats to the stability of the global environment.
