Impact of Global Warming on Local Communities

By

Global warming is a social issue that is widely discussed in the U.S.  and across the world today.  The impacts of this social problem on  local communities are far-reaching. In this discussion you will examine  how global warming is expected to impact your local community, as well  as discuss how different social groups are affected in different ways.

 For in-depth information on what global warming is and how it impacts  (or is expected to impact) coastal cities in the United States review  the following resources:

 To investigate how global warming is expected to impact the region where you live visit the 2014 National Climate Assessment (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. website.   Be sure to click on the “Explore Regions” link for a list of all the  regions in the United States.  You can also review the Surging Seas Risk Zone Map (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. if you happen to live in a coastal city.

 As  climate change intensifies, experts note the increasing incidence and  growing severity of natural disasters.  To learn more about how issues  of race and class are related to disaster response review the following  articles:


After reviewing all of the resources above, address each of the following:

  1. How does human activity impact global warming?  What are two  environmental problems related to global warming that experts expect to  occur in coming decades?
  2. According to the National Climate Assessment website, what are  the main environmental issues that the region where you live (or if you  cannot find your particular region, the region where you grew up or  have some connection to) will face due to global warming?  What can you  do to help?
  3. What role did race and class play in the response to hurricane  Katrina?  How did the history of structural race relations and  inequalities in New Orleans impact how the hurricane affected different  racial and class groups?  How did the government’s response vary by the  race and class of the residents?
     
Support  your claims with examples from required material(s) and/or other  scholarly resources, and properly cite any references.

1.Starting with this provided code, add the following functionality: Replace hardcoded strings “Zero”, “One”, “Two”, “Three” in the ArrayList based on user typed input (use Scanner or JOptionPane classes). The user will be prompted for the String to be stored in the ArrayList and then hit enter. The user will be able to continue to add items to the ArrayList until they just hit enter without typing anything. Once the user does this (hits enter without typing anything), the program will display all of the elements of the ArrayList, both the index and String values, in a table. It will do this via a single loop making use of an iterator method. 2. Starting with this provided code, add the following functionality: Use a Try/Catch block so that the exception is caught and the program exits a bit more gracefully. Save this file as TryCatch.java. (Be sure to rename the Public Class accordingly.) Starting with the provided code again (without the Try/Catch block), fix the code so that

THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION AND THE EARLY REPUBLIC

By
Assignment Overview The American Revolution and Independence As we saw in the Module Overview, there were numerous factors that ultimately led to revolution and independence. In this second Case assignment, you’ll be researching and writing about some of those factors. Case Assignment Write a 3 to 4-page essay identifying at least FOUR factors which led to colonial independence. In your paper, explain which events triggered discord between the colonies and the Mother Country. Be sure to do some research on your own and use other resources to analyze the thought-processes which sparked independent thinking. The best way to approach and organize the paper would be to create a title for each event and then discuss your findings. For example; for the first one you could write, “Event 1, The Seven Years War”. This would be followed by your narrative on how this war led to independence.
