i had thought of AIDS in darfur but that was about it.... thank you very much.... yea my teacher plans to sit and talk over our topic ideas w/us before we pick... she wanted it to be broad so we could pick just about anything.. your ideas were great!

Answer 1

Well, the biggies are global warming, which will push species out of their target zones, resulting in huge diasporas and loss of habitat. Similiarly, human encrouchment is also taking a significant toll on wildlife, world-wide. Population is also a global issue. Health issues run the gamut from infectious disease, to heart disease, to cancer. Infectious diseases are more treatable, the global AIDS epidemic comes to mind. Also bird flu (avian H5N1 virus) is threatening a mass pandemic.

There is no shortage of topics, but everything described above is so broad, you need to really think and define your problem so you can get a decent paper on it which is not to broad and deals with scientific facts. You should definately discuss with your teacher and figure out what they have in mind, and see what they think of whatever topic you choose (seriously, do this, it's very important to see eye to eye on this, otherwise you could get a very bad grade if you don't do what they want).

There are some exciting recommendations before published, yet when I have been to have the comparable task i might initiate with whichever subject I already knew the main approximately and seek for connections from there. For me, Gregory Bateson's books STEPS TO AN ECOLOGY OF innovations and innovations AND NATURE lined the two physics and biology in a fashion that i might desire to stick to. His familiar topic in the two books became right into a thank you to seek for varieties that connect. you've got not have been given any issue getting a minimum of 15 pages of notion from the two e book and their bibliographies. I incredibly enjoyed the way Bateson related the 2nd regulation of thermodynamics, entropy, and evolution.
