a) Click on the article, "Hurricanes vs. Homes: Should Building on U.S. Coasts Be Stopped?" Discuss the article's point of view, and how it pertains to population, environment, and ethics. (10 points)
| OK |
The article states the point of view of two Florida representatives, one wants to keep the process of building and selling because of revenue and one wants to stop the building all together. This of course leads to funding problems because the government can not pay for all the land that is in danger zones. But he would consider more strict building codes as an alternative. The population is involved because the hurricane directly effects them and their economy. The environment would be better off if the building stopped because natural habitats could be restored, but on the other hand it would take away from the economy in the form of lost labor, tourist revenue, etc. Ethics is in reality different for political parties. Of course one wants to keep the areas they way they are now and the other wants the areas to be shut down all together. It depends on your political stand point and morals and ethics. I think it should not grow anymore and the current building codes should be more stringent.

The article says China needs help and we and other countries should do so. Two thirds of China's energry is produced by coal burning. This has created a global warming issue. China does not have the revenue to put towards oil technologies and the mere fact of discovering oil. The article states that the government pretty much runs the energy that supplies China and all other countries should invest in making China more efficient. The population would benefit a lot from the outside help. The environment would become more clean do to better technologies. The ethics on it vary from country to country, but I would say most countries would be for it.
