Threats to the Global Environment
Congratulations! The members of the United Nations found great value in the two analyses you provided. They are now asking you to develop a PowerPoint presentation that addresses the four most critical threats to the global environment. They are listed in the table below. MAKE SURE YOU CHECK OFF EVERYTHING WRITTEN ON GRADING RUBRIC!
