1. Please read pages 3, 4 and 5 of the EPA brochure at the following site prior to this Friday's group activity. It is directly available from the Section42/42 D2L site under “Content” then item ix in Unit 4 Additional Readings:

It will probably take about 15-20 minutes.

 

2. Then come up with one detailed scheme for reducing the greenhouse gas emissions.  You should consider the greenhouse gases described in the brochure (and the large table therein, which summarizes the sources and amounts of greenhouse gases).  Your idea could be related to one or more of the following: methods to reduce anthropogenic CO2 emissions from specific sources; energy needs for our society and/or capitalism; taxes on energy/carbon; incentives; energy conservation; energy efficiency; alternate sources of energy; CO2 sequestration; non-CO2 greenhouse gas emissions.  BE SPECIFIC, LOGICAL and COMPLETE (3-5 sentences or clear bullet points).

Put your scheme in writing, because you will need to write it into one of the GA4 pages on Friday.
