GGH3708 ASSIGNMENT 3 SEMESTER 1 2025 – FULLY ANSWERED

Description

GGH3708 Assignment 3 Semester 1 | Due 28 March 2025. 5 DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENT PROBLEMS PROVIDED. This assignment focuses on Part 1 of the portfolio but it is not Part 1 of the portfolio. I have
found that many students struggle to identify an appropriate environmental problem for their
portfolio. To address this shortcoming of many students, you must submit a two-page
explanation of the local environmental problem you will be using in your portfolio. It is a
brain-storming exercise to help you to prepare for the portfolio. You must focus on 5 aspects,
namely:
 description and context of the local environmental problem;
 the location and extent of the local environmental problem;
 who or what is causing the local environmental problem;
 how you are associated or connected to the local environmental problem; and
 who or what is being affected by this local environmental problem.
