I want you to watch the documentary Before the Flood (Links to an external site.) (all 1 hour 40 mins of it!) and then answer the following questions. It is free to watch if you click on the link above or here (Links to an external site.). It is also now available on Netflix. If you have never had a Netflix (Links to an external site.) account, you can sign up for a free trial. Or you also probably know someone who has a Netflix account – invite them to watch it with you! Or find your favorite best friend in class and watch it together.
Might as well make a watch-party of it! Gather your family, friends, significant others – heck, everyone you know! (also, if you manage not to be in tears by the end, you’re stronger than I am).
After watching Before the Flood (Links to an external site.), answer the following questions and submit via Canvas.
1.Describe Dr. Michael Mann’s “hockey-stick” graph. What is the data showing?
2. What is one factor that pushed the Chinese government toward greener technologies?
3. What is the island nation of Kiribati experiencing now, as a result of climate change? What is their long-term strategy to deal with these effects?
4. Why would the northern hemisphere get colder due to global warming??
5. Once you finish watching, take some time to gather your thoughts. Combining what you’ve learned by watching this documentary and everything we discussed this semester, spend a few paragraphs sharing what you’re feeling, thinking, if and/or how your views have changed of the planetary challenges we face, and what you think you could do in your daily life to help avoid the worst-case scenario.
