Day 2:

Now what?  Based on the information from geochemical cycles and the materials above, you now have a more informed decision that you can make about climate change.  Your goal is to take this viewpoint and decide what to do for your county/state/country in terms of economics, policy, and action steps.  Create a 2 page document listing 2 economic issues that you will address, 3 policies or laws that you believe should be created, and a series of 10 personal action steps.  You may do this by yourself or with one partner.  (25 points)
