Climate Change Reflection
- Did any of the Options appeal to you more than the others?
- I thought that the relocation of communities was an interesting option. I didn’t think that relocation would be considered an option as it is view unrealistic for me. Mainly because as much as I understand why certain location should change, it wouldn’t be ideal for people in low income families. A lot of the options listed had financial/social issues involved with it. Although all of the options would help climate change, it is unrealistic when thinking about people from low income.
- Did you hear or think of any new way of addressing the issues associated with the warming of the climate?
- From one of the discussions heard from the group, one member talked about the use of solar panels, which I thought was interesting because I didn’t correlate solar panel with climate change before.
- What are your thoughts on the use of Public Deliberation in the classroom or the community? Is this something you would like to facilitate?
- I think that PBI is great to help bring out ideas and discuss and counter argue some of the ideas that are already “planned out.” As many people already have their own options, its better for people that has a neutral aspective to give in some inquiry about the options for climate change. Although all of the options are great ideas despite having a few counter arguments and whether if its ideal or not, it all depends on the people’s motivation of wanting to help stop climate change.
