My environmental issue was climate change. Climate change affects everybody iun the community. It has determined farming hours and dramatically effected our temperatures in general.
A circular flow diagram is used to basically demonstrate how one action impacts every sector of our economy. Climate change affects every single section of the economy.
Some criteria for any solution to work include budget and labor concerns, public awareness, challenges, and possible externalities. There really arnt any budget or labor concerns, just no laziness. Public awareness is key though, everybody needs to know so they will be able to help and prevent harm. The challenge lies in the money, no money, no solution to our problem. Externalities should always be considered in anything this large.
One solution is more Hybrid/Electric vehicle instead of the old combustion engines. Positive externalities include happier people about the very high gas mileage. Negatives include the ol' school people that would much rather stick with there old vehicle then switch to some wimpy car.
Next is solar energy. Positives include cheap electric bills if any bill for it. Negatives include electric companies going out of business and the panels are pretty expensive so not everyone can afford them.
Lastly is safer industrial factories. Positives include better overall health of the surrounding area and cleaner breathable air. Negatives include Insanely high bills to convert from traditional factories to newer high tech ones.
In conclusion, I believe that the best solution would be hybrid vehicles. I believe this because they are relitively inexpensive to manufacture and with gas prices rising every single day everybody would enjoy the comfort of knowing they wont have to fill up for a while.
