  1. Find a scientific or news article from a credible source that describes the relationship between human activities and one or more of the following planetary boundaries:
    • Biosphere integrity
    • Novel entities
    • Atmospheric aerosol loading
    • Ocean acidification
    • Biogeochemical flows
    • Freshwater use
    • Land-system change
      1. In your own words, explain the relationship between human activities and the planetary boundary/ies addressed in the article. Include specific information about the mechanism/s by which human activity places strain on the identified boundary/ies.
      2. Provide the complete, correctly formatted citation for the article you used.
        1. This week you learned about the four root causes of unsustainability, three of which are grounded in a scientific view of sustainability: (1) transfer of large quantities of materials from the Earth’s crust into the biosphere; (2) accumulation of substances (human-made or natural) that natural processes can’t break down quickly enough; and (3) inhibition of naturally occurring cycles through land-use changes and other activities.

          Find a scientific or news article from a credible source that discusses an environmental issue connected to one of the root causes listed above. Make sure that you choose an article that is different from the one you wrote about for Part A and do not choose the topic of microplastics.

        2. In your own words, describe the environmental issue and explain how researchers know that this is connected to human activity.  Drawing from Robèrt’s definition of sustainability and other ideas from this week’s Learning Materials, explain why this activity is unsustainable. Include in-text citations as appropriate.

        3. Provide the complete, correctly formatted citation for the article you used.
