Term Paper Assignment
Using course materials as well as your own research, respond to the questions posted below..
Q1. Describe the role of values in the rise of the modern environmental movement (i.e. 1960s-1970s), and how this shift has influenced the formation of environmental laws. Based on the readings and your own analysis, discuss the various roles of environmentalists and conservationists, in terms of urban and rural residents. Discuss whether you believe there are fundamental differences in environmental policy based on urban-rural residency.
Q2. Using the Kraft text as a guide, briefly identify who you think of as the most important actors involved in environmental policy. Why did you chose those actors? While there are many key players in the formation and implementation of environmental policy, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has a pivotal role in environmental protection in the U.S. Discuss how the EPA implements environmental policy and the critical role of the Presidential Administration in affecting the EPA's mission. Make sure to include a discussion on the implementation of environmental laws.
