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 four of the most critical threats to the global environment. Critical threats include:



  • Energy sources.

  • Globalization.

  • Lack of educational opportunities.

  • Inappropriate use of technology.

  • Civil war.

  • Poor health of entire population.

  • Cultural taboos.

  • Climate change.


Instructions



Step I. Narrow the List from Eight to the Four Most Critical Threats

To complete this step, complete the following tasks in order:



  1. Review research on each of the eight threats.

  2. Determine what you believe to be the current and potential future impacts of each threat on the global environment.

  3. Choose the four threats that you see as the most critical by considering which pose the greatest or most immediate risk.



Step II. Create the PowerPoint Presentation

The completed version of this presentation will include a minimum of 16 slides. Your audience consists of the United Nations General Assembly.



PPT Content and Structure

    3. For your third threat (this is the threat you consider to be the third greatest threat/highest priority):

      • One slide on a brief history and assessment of the threat.

      • One slide on the countries most affected by the threat, and how those countries are affected (please give examples).

      • One slide on the effects of this threat on the world population as a whole.

      • One slide including a chart, graph, or compelling visual that relates to the content you present in body slides a–c.



    4. For your fourth threat (this is the threat you consider to be the fourth greatest threat/highest priority):

      • One slide on a brief history and assessment of the threat.

      • One slide on the countries most affected by the threat, and how those countries are affected (please give examples).

      • One slide on the effects of this threat on the world population as a whole.

      • One slide including a chart, graph, or compelling visual that relates to the content you present in body slides a–c.






  4. Conclusion Slide:Summarize your findings for the Assembly.


  5. (Optional) Reference Slide:You can include full-text citations in the Notes section of each slide or provide a reference slide at the end of the presentation with the full citations of your sources.



Note:



  • Please discuss the threats in order of priority as described above, so the threat you consider the greatest should be discussed first in the presentation and so on.

  • Please use at least five credible sources to back up your discussion.

  • The body slides should summarize your key takeaways, whereas the notes section of each body slide should discuss the evidence and the details that support your takeaways. The content in both the notes and body sections requires citations and sources.


This course requires the use of Strayer Writing Standards. For assistance and information, please refer to the Strayer Writing Standards link in the left-hand menu of your course. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.

Assessment of Threat of Civil War
Civil war is the highest form of conflict that promotes organized violence aimed at social group in mission to fulfil their objective.
Whether war is driven to gain justice or not, it is conducted for offensive or defensive it includes most horrendous as well as brutal atrocities to humans
War has resulted in establishing small groups and villages that incorporates larger political chiefdoms
Global Overview of Threat
As a tool of power, a set of institutions—the central government, the armed forces, the regulatory and police agencies—whose most important functions involve the use of force, the control of territory and the maintenance of internal order
War contributed indirectly to the industrialization and technological sophistication that characterize the modern world
Countries most affected by the Threat
Countries which are mostly plagued by this threat is Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Seria
The increasing sophistication of military technology has commanded a large share of resources, totaling $1.63 trillion worldwide in 2010, or about 2.6 percent of the total global domestic product.
Global military spending has been increasing since 1998, with dramatic increases between 2002 and 2008, as a consequence of expenditures for U.S.-led operations after September 11.
Glimpse of Developed Countries & Developing Countries
Countries in Blue represents Advanced Economies
Countries in Yellow represents Emerging and Developing Economies
Countries in Red represents least developed Economies
Third World Countries represents developing and have below mentioned characteristic
Low standards of government and suppressed or no democratic discipline
Inadequate social institutions and initiatives
Under-developed industrialization
Paucity of human rights that can guarantees for citizen
Brief History of Assessment of Threat
Today, education remains an inaccessible and unapproachable right for millions of children around the world.
More than 80 million children who are at the age of primary education are not in the School.
Approximately 750 million adults are illiterate and do not have the awareness necessary to improve both their living conditions and those of their children
Cause of the Threat
Marginalization and Poverty
Lack of Funding for Education
Having untrained Faculties
No Infrastructure
Exclusion Children with disabilities
Countries most affected by Threat
At Macro level, countries like Kenya, Somalia, Haiti, Comoros and Ethiopia that are plagued by poverty are on worsening trajectory.
Overall, employment rate is inclined to be more among adults with education advancement. This trend is seen globally and also displayed in the chart (next slide)
The chart particularly compares the employment rate among the employees with a high school degree against those who are qualified for the job.
Deep diving into the dataset all the countries appear below the diagonal parity line except for Saudi Arabia where the employee market is structured implying higher education rates for those who are more educated
While on the other hand, difference in some countries are huge. For instance, in Slovakia, the employment rate are very poor. People with tertiary education is twice as large as the rate for those with completion of secondary education
Current State of Lack of Education
Poor Health of Population & Health Crisis
Problems like poor healthcare, lack of proper hygiene standards and issues with sanitization that emerge from national boundaries that may be influenced by experiences & circumstances
Climate change
Urbanization
Malnutrition
Health protection, insurance and coverage is crucial for every individual as well the economy of the country because productivity of labor mandates healthy workforce as well as employment effects of health domain
Countries most affected by the Threat
Life Expectancy Standard represents a duration of life expectancy at birth. This corresponds to an estimate of the average number of years a newborn infant would live if the patterns of mortality prevails at the time of birth throughout the life
In low income economies, the average number of years that an infant can expect to live is lower than the high-income countries
Range of life expectancy from just 50 years in the poverty ridden countries is much more than 80 years in developed countries
Mortality in child is much higher in low income countries. In many countrues sub-Saharan Africa more than 12% of children die before they reach the age of five. In developed economies this figure reduces to 1%
Life Expectancy & Child Mortality in Countries
Brief History of Assessment of Threat
Common assets and energy sources, including resources like water, energy and ripe land, are the reason for our life on Earth
Nonetheless, mankind's quickly developing utilization of these assets is causing serious harm. Our atmosphere is changing; new water holds, fish stocks and woods are contracting; rich land is being crushed and species are getting terminated.
To keep on blossoming with this planet, our ways of life should turn out to be more maintainable, so we can ensure our regular asset base and the delicate eco-frameworks on our planet.
The world economy today utilizes around 30% less assets to create one Euro or Dollar of GDP than 30 years back; in any case, generally speaking asset use is still expanding.
Asset proficiency has improved consistently in Europe and around the world. Be that as it may, as we burn-through developing measures of items and administrations, this positive pattern is more than exceeded by the general development of our economies.
