1.    Climate Change

2.    Pollution

3.    Deforestation

#2 When creating my list of “most threatening”, I used specific criteria directly relating to how each individual threat poses an environmental and long term issue in our modern day world. I listed climate change, pollution, and deforestation as being the top three most hazardous and dangerous threats because they are becoming more and more of a threat, and overtime have turned our planet into an environmental wasteland. Each component interferes with our Earth’s temperature, population (sickness), habitat, and air quality.

4. the polar ice caps melting

things we are taught in order to prevent
the effects it has on other things that are unrelated
how it will make a bigger impact for future generations

1. Climate Change is releasing deadly viruses  trapped in the ice (smallpox, anthrax, 1918 Spanish flu)

2. Overpopulation (habitat loss, pollution, resources)
3. Rising sea level

I put the virus first, because this is something that we thought would now be in our past but because of global warming, it now becoming a problem we cannot avoid. In fact a child died two years ago because of anthrax contaminating the water, because it melted. The others fall in place, because everything is connected.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Population
2. Pollution
3. Deforestation
- through their effect on habitats, biodiversity, change of climate/atmosphere

# data[].attributes.body
1. Using coal to produce power
2. Deforestation
3. Unnecessary waste production

These are all preventable causes of environmental harm

It is possible to live without these

There are better alternatives to these problems which are able to do the same job

Society could still function without them

# data[].attributes.body
1. Water scarcity

water is essential to humans for survival and places like South Africa and California are placing rations on water supply as they are facing severe droughts.

2. Pollution

carbon emissions are not only warming the earth's temperature but is also bad for our health.

3. Global warming

the root of the problems the earth is facing and is also caused by the carbon emissions mentioned above and greenhouse gases.

# data[].attributes.body
Climate change (obviously)
-heatwaves
-droughts
-flooding/ storms
-decrease in crop yeilds
-rising sea levels
Deforestation
-depletion of oxygen
-displacement of wildlife
-loss of biodiversity
Overpopulation
-pollution
-deforestation to make room for infrastructure
-more stress on environment
Overfishing
-loss of ocean life

2. Typically the most threatening are the ones that have the greatest longterm impact on the environment, the earth, as well as us as a society

# data[].attributes.body
Population
Pollution
Deforestation

# data[].attributes.body
1. climate change
2. species extinction and biodiversity loss
3. air and water pollution
4. water crisis
5. deforestation
how do you decide if a threat exists?
by determining the severity of the consequences, and how much time we have left to fix said issue.
what criteria do you use to identify the greatest threats?
the threats we cannot fix because it is too late.

# data[].attributes.body
1.  Change in temperature
2.  rising waters
3. water pollution
4. lack of potable water
5. air pollution

3 threats facing our natural environment 

# data[].attributes.subject
3 threats facing our natural environment 

# data[].attributes.body
1.  climate change:
-the changing environmental effects brought on by climate change are the worst kind of threats we are facing.
-climate change is increasing droughts, wildfires, hurricanes and heat waves
-these environmental changes are to drastic and happening at a speed that our planet and its environments cannot adapt to
2. species extinction:
-intense changes to agriculture, fish environments, and habitat loss are to great and threatening for species to adapt and massive loss will be seen
-demands of people to branch out into wildlife and populate habitats for our needs are another leading cause in species dying
3. pollution
-air pollution can become one the leading causes of deaths for humans and animals around the world and large amounts of populations live in areas with polluted air
-water pollution is another major factor that we are facing, it is so great

# data[].attributes.body
that 83% of all water in the world has traces of micro plastics in them.
-chemical pollution from industries is another problem and causes a lot of plants and animals to die from toxins
