In this assignment, you are asked to explore environmental issues in Canada. The premise for this application assignment is that you are the newly elected Prime Minister of Canada. During your election campaign you stated that if elected you promise to take swift action to deal with one of Canada’s major environmental concerns.

In this assignment, you are asked to explore environmental issues in Canada. The premise for this application assignment is that you are the newly elected Prime Minister of Canada.

PART 1: Which environmental problem are you going to tackle?

For the environmental challenge you are working with, please do the following:

(a) Explain the reasons why you have chosen this particular environmental challenge.
(b) Identify scientific sources to validate that this is an environmental concern in Canada.
(c) Describe how you are going to measure this environmental challenge. This is referred to as the measured variable in your assignment.

PART 2: What is your action plan to solve this environmental challenge?

For the environmental challenge you are working with, please do the following:

(a) Describe how you plan to solve your environmental challenge.
(b) Identify scientific sources to prove that your solution to the environmental challenge is valid.
(c) Describe how you are going to measure that your solution was effective. What positive effect did your implemented changes have on the measured variable?

For example:

The importance of potable water is becoming a major concern as less then 1% of the water on earth is potable, which means drinkable.

If I was the “Pm”, I would implement a new environmental policy and give every Canadian household a .5 litre container of bottled water to place in their toilet tank.

This action would reduce the amount of water per flush by .5 Litres x 16 flushes per day for an average family = 8 Litres.

This would result in a savings of 8 litres of potable water per day, per family across our nation.

In this case the measure variable is…the potable water. The positive result is the 8 litres of potable water saved each day.

Please note that this is my example and you cannot use this idea for your assignment. You need to be creative and develop your own idea to improve our environment.
