What are some specific environmental issues that I could write a paper on?
I need to write an environmental issues brief on a specific topic. Does anyone know of some topics that have a lot of research done on and on the web that could be used as sources?
The Expert answers:
The most prominent topic would be climate change. If you search for climate change you will get a raft of excellent resources. I would suggest narrowing the topic down to something like ‘the impact of climate change on biodiversity’. Alternatively you could search for other major environmental issues such as deforestation, desertification and over-fishing. You could find some good suggested books here http://sustainablebusinesstoolkit.com/green-gadgets-and-resources/

How is the chemical industry becoming more aware of environmental issues?
Give examples of how the chemical industry is becoming more aware of the environmental issues.
The Expert answers:
The industry is making things more environmentally friendly to the environment eg: by considering more carbon remission into the earth’s atmosphere and cutting down on releasing poisonous substances like sulphur dioxide, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulphide and other related gases through factory smoke…..etc
Also, they are trying not to exhaust the earth’s gas/coal supplies and rely on other methods like wind farming, oil seed rape, vegetable oil and turbine energy and cut down drastically on nuclear power……
Hope that help for starters!
Good luck….
