You can see in the map that the southern most areas of Eurasia are the hottest. That is because it is closest to the equator. The northern most areas are the coldest, because of how close they are to the Arctic Circle. ]]> 2016-09-27 15:22:59 UTC https://padlet.com/katelynmul6286/w4i6reje445w/wish/126704114 katelynmul6286 https://padlet.com/katelynmul6286/w4i6reje445w/wish/127287624 Russian policies impacted their environment because they did not pay enough mind to it. For example, they were so focused on economic growth that they didn't realize how much pollution was in the air, and it damaged their resources. Also, by not paying attention to the Aral sea, too much of the water was used for irrigation that the Aral sea is now shrinking. The incident in Chernobyl is also an example of this. Safety was not accounted for so that when this incident occurred, it greatly damaged the environment. Russian policies impact their environment when they fail to consider the environmental consequences of their decisions.]]> 2016-09-29 15:12:38 UTC https://padlet.com/katelynmul6286/w4i6reje445w/wish/127287624 katelynmul6286 https://padlet.com/katelynmul6286/w4i6reje445w/wish/128850454 2016-10-06 15:13:00 UTC https://padlet.com/katelynmul6286/w4i6reje445w/wish/128850454 katelynmul6286 https://padlet.com/katelynmul6286/w4i6reje445w/wish/129844753 The population problem in Russia is that their population is declining. Reasons for this are that they have a high death rate, low birth rate, encouraged abortions, alcoholism, and little immigration. Opposite of immigration, many people emigrate because they want a stronger economy. Also, men have a lower life expectancy than women because of alcoholism.]]> 2016-10-11 15:13:52 UTC https://padlet.com/katelynmul6286/w4i6reje445w/wish/129844753 katelynmul6286 https://padlet.com/katelynmul6286/w4i6reje445w/wish/130476017 The causes for change in USSR and Russia were government policy and the various leaders that lead them.]]> 2016-10-13 15:14:09 UTC https://padlet.com/katelynmul6286/w4i6reje445w/wish/130476017 katelynmul6286 https://padlet.com/katelynmul6286/w4i6reje445w/wish/131176991 When Eurasia was in a communist state, the economy was declining. There were unfair taxes and there was too much focus on industrialization that the economy suffered. Also, everyone had an equal job even if it wasn't a great one, causing the GDP Per Capita to go down during communism. However, after the fall of the Soviet Union, leaders like Gorbachev and Yeltsin transformed Russia into a more free place to live.]]> 2016-10-17 15:15:00 UTC https://padlet.com/katelynmul6286/w4i6reje445w/wish/131176991 katelynmul6286 https://padlet.com/katelynmul6286/w4i6reje445w/wish/131506133 2016-10-18 15:11:34 UTC https://padlet.com/katelynmul6286/w4i6reje445w/wish/131506133 katelynmul6286 https://padlet.com/katelynmul6286/w4i6reje445w/wish/132372755 Democracies have free and fair elections.
