Make up assignment for: Lecture on sustainability, resources, and global energy systems
Assignment: Please write a short paper (2 pages, double spaced) on one of the topics below:
- How human-made garbage is managed, and new ways we might address it
- Food waste (e.g. how and why so much food gets wasted--at every level of production and consumption)
- The places where slavery and human trafficking are still prevalent today, and the ways in which the products we use and consume tie into this (i.e. examine what is meant by the "slavery footprint" -- see more info here: slaveryfootprint.org/)
