Define
the situation or problem
- With global warming comes rising sea levels, meaning that much
of Florida could soon be underwater
|
- Explain how the issue you have chosen affects your
community. Be sure to include impacts you perceive to be both positive and
negative.
- What do members of your family and community say
about the issue?
|
- The issue I chose affects my community because I
live in the part of Florida that could be underwater in the future if we
don’t stop the rising sea levels
- Some of the people in my family don’t believe in
climate change, but science shows this is real. My sister believes that we
need to take steps in order to reverse the effects of global warming.

Construct
a circular-flow diagram that incorporates effects of your chosen issue on
economic products and various sectors of the economy.
Based
on your diagram, answer the following questions including positive and
negative effects on each economic sector.
|
- How does this issue affect households and local
residents?
- How does this issue affect area businesses?
- How does this issue affect our government at the
local, state, and national levels?
- How does this issue affect the rest of the world?
- How does the issue affect resources, goods and
services, and finances?
|
- This issue would greatly affect households and
local residents because they will no longer have homes or be able to reside
here.
- This issue also greatly affects businesses such as
tourism, energy, steel and other major industries in the area because they
will no longer have the land.
- This issue effects government at local levels
because they will no longer be in existence, state because they will lose
revenue from these areas and national because they will also lose money.
- This issue effects the rest of the world because
Florida has many goods that people all over the world use and will no longer
have access to if we are underwater.
- The issue effects resources because obviously if
we’re underwater, there will be none, goods and services because we can’t
provide them without resources, and finances because without the resources
needed to provide the goods or services we won’t make any money.
