Choose either 1 or 2 and answer all parts of the question: 1. Issues with Lead Compare and contrast the Flint Water Crisis and the issue of Albatross being poisoned with lead paint on Midway Atoll. How are they similar, how are they different? Why did it take so long to reach resolution for each of these issues? (5) List at least 5 relevant stakeholders for each of these issues (5 points) Select one of these issues, list at least 3 of the 7 steps in the environmental problem solving (found in Dr. A’s Gugliotta 2003 slides) process we discussed in class and give a brief explanation of how these points came into play in the process of resolving the issue (5 points).   2. Multiple Issues Consider the drastic reduction in terns in Massachusetts as a result of the Plume Trade and the decline in cod fish due overfishing in Newfoundland, compare and contrast the biology of terns and codfish and explain how the biology of these species contributed to their decline in the face of human exploitation (5 points) Select one of these issues, the Plume Trade or the Collapse of the New England Cod Fishery, list at least 5 stakeholders and provide a brief description of how each stakeholder contributed to the ultimate species decline/fisheries collapse or how they helped improve the plight of the species involved. (5 points) Briefly describe the problem of smoke in Pittsburg that we read about in Gugliotta 2003. List 3 of the 7 steps in the environmental problem-solving process (found in Dr. A’s Gugliotta 2003 slides) and briefly describe how these steps played a role in the resolution of this problem.
