EQ- If we continue the way we live now, will the world be sustainable for humans for our future family?

THESIS-We can change the direction of our world if if we make big changes in our lifestyle.


MAJOR ARGUMENTS-
A-World hunger is already a huge issue in our world and in years to come it can only get worse, if we change the portions some people eat in countries like the US, and we give more to places where starvation is an issue, less and less people would die of starvation each year.
B-Global warming is also a very serious issue yet can also be solved by simple things done per capita, if people learned to conserve energy/save power or even if we could find a new source or energy, if hybrid cars were owned by more people or even used more mass transportaion we could slow down global warming by a lot
C-If business would lower their budgets then less of the forest and nature would be harmed in the process and the pollution in the air of trucks and machinery affecting global warming
D-(posssible) .The world oil consumption dropped slightly in the 1970s and then again a little more in the 1980s since then it has only increased.However if we have been able to bring the consumption down before, even if un-intentional, why can't we do it now? With all the technology we have niike hybrid/electric cars, solar and wind power we could.

CONNECTIONS
-When the world didn't hold 6.6 billion human beings, which wasn't very long ago there were more food and resources to go around. Now because of the constant baby boom, and the selfishness of others there is less and less to share with the more unfortunate.
-Before industrial civilization boomed in our world, air pollution and global warming wasn't an issue.
-Also before the industrial civilization we never needed more space to make factories and buildings, or tractors and trucks.
-explains it self for past...

OPV
(get resources of opposing viewpoints in class) many don't think we can stop where we are headed at this point at turn around.
