This time its Economics :)

Hey everyone, as many of my regulars know I have been using my blog for certain assignments here lately for my online school and its mainly been government but now I have an Economics one I have to do so I hope you like the change up some. :) heres the "Prompt" type thing and my answer or assignment part is below. You have chosen an environmental issue to research for your Module Six Project. For this honors assignment, explore another issue that your community is facing. Consider a challenge that has resulted in externalities affecting you and your local area. Perhaps your community has many people without work or a low high school graduation rate. Choose an issue that you feel strongly about, and consider how the issue relates to poverty.Make sure that you address these questions in your awareness presentation:

1. What is the issue?
2. What externalities does the issue raise?
3. How is the issue connected to poverty?
4. What helpful action can your viewers take?

My Part: Population

     In Florida we have many areas that show off the beauty of this state. With more and more people moving to Florida, however, many of these beautiful places are being destroyed and disturbed, animals becoming endangered while others are over populating these areas. We need our officials to step up and figure out a way to Preserve our natural land heritage and the animals in it. If Florida officials don't find a way to decrease the increasing of population then some externalities we could have would vary from endangered animals going extinct, our beautiful lands cut down or polluted taking away from the beauty and making it become nothing, overcrowding of people leading to decrease of jobs, etc. This issue could connect to poverty because if population continues to increase and increase in the state of Florida then it is going to become hard to find a job and then people will get behind in payments and have no money for food to feed their children. They will lose their house, their car, maybe even their children because they have no job to provide for themselves and their families. A good way for people to help I suppose would be to address the problem to the county or state government. Voice their opinions and state why this is such a big deal like I have above. We could get police officers to check more often to see if people have their green cards or not and to tighten portal of coast guard. It may sound mean to see them back to where ever they came from but we need to resolve this issue.
