Transcript: Solution 1: Negative - This would make all factory workers lose their jobs. Business Firms Air pollution is a very big problem around the world. Of course as we all know, we need it to survive! So why are so many people willingly polluting it? After millions of years of the air being polluted, it is now making people ill. This is an issue that will eventually lead to major health problems. It not only effects people, it also effects animals and plant life too. Rest of the World Households The only solution that would meet my criteria would be solution 2. I picked this because this is the only solution that would avoid jobs being lost and the government to pay billions of dollars. With solution 1 and 3, millions of jobs would be lost. If the government officials kept a lookout for people air polluting, like revving engines, this would eliminate a lot of pollution. Factory owners should find an alternative to mass produce products without air pollution. Solution 2 has the most positive externalities and is the solution that takes the most sense and saves the most money Does the public need to be aware of and support the solution? Negative - It would cost billions of dollars to change all factories In many house holds, people don't even notice that they are polluting the air. Fumes from gas/coal/wood ovens are the most common pollution from households. Businesses that cause air pollution, such as dry cleaners, car repair shops, and factories are harming the environment dramatically . Air pollution not only may kill plants, but it can also effect the health of people who breath it in What positive or negative externalities does this issue present at each sector of the economy? Refer to your circular-flow diagram Absolutely. If the world had to stop producing everything that was made in a factory, millions of people around the world would lose their jobs. A majority of things that are on the self in the super market are made in factories, so this would also cut a lot of food production. Companies would go bankrupt if the world had to shut down all factories that gave off air pollution fumes. Positive - This will eliminate most of the air pollution in the atmosphere. What challenges are there to implementing each solution? Module 6 Project 06.02 Solution 2: What do your parents/others in the community say about the issue? Are there budget or labor concerns? Circular Flow Diagram Solution 3: design by Dóri Sirály for Prezi Guided Question #2 The government doesn't push its citizens enough to keep the air clean. Almost all factories emit fumes into the air and the government doesn't do anything about it, even though there is a Clean Air Act Everyone in the world would have to support this issue. If people didn't support, then the issue would never be fixed. Not everyone would agree that shutting down all factories that emit fumes into the air is a good idea. Its a loss of many jobs and resources for millions and millions of people around the world. Guided Question #1 What Is The Issue? The first solution would make all factory workers lose their job. The second solution would probably cause a lot of people, especially with big trucks, to receive tickets. The third solution would cost billions of dollars. Rest of guided questions are answered in my circle diagram. Households: People don't notice that they emit air pollution from their home What incentives do individuals, businesses, and government have to act on each possible solution? Negative - This would cause a lot of government officials to be on the look out and all homes, businesses to be evaluated. Why would some people oppose the solutions you have chosen? Government: The government does not currently push to keep up with the elimination of air pollution Every single sector including individuals, businesses, and government have the incentive of CLEAN AIR! individuals will get sick from the air, causing them not to be able to attend work. Eventually the air is going to become to unhealthy and polluted that more and more people are going to get sick. There are 2 solutions when it comes to air pollution: make factories that don't emit fumes into the air or completely diminish all factories at once. Of course the first choice sounds better, but it is much more costly. My parents and others who live in my community say they are all for no air pollution. My dad is somewhat against the issue because he works in the construction industry so most to all of their parts are made in factories and with all factories being shut down, he wouldn't be able to do his job. 6.05 06.03 In the environment, the air pollution harms so many habitats for animals. Some animals can't live with air air being so polluted. Animals such as bird and smaller animals die everyday from air pollution. Explain how the issue you have chosen affects your community. Be sure to include impacts you perceive to be both positive and negative - The issue of air pollution affects my community because it
