Today's Check-in:
How does preparation, impact and response to Hurricane Irma in Caribbean and U.S. and Monsoon rain flooding in South Asia confirm and/or challenge our ideas of DTM?
​
We will continue to discuss population policy.  Towards the end of class you will complete the Formative FRQ on early key issues (where do people live? Why is the world population increasing? Why do we see differences in population in different areas of the world?).

For today's class, let's take a look at a few news articles discussing some specific population issues select countries may be facing:
Current Population Issues Needing Policy to Address:
  • Parenthood Policies in Europe (BBC News)
  • Overpopulation in Bangladesh: A Time Bomb Ticking (Article, The Financial Express, 2013)
  • China's Twilight Years  (Article, The Atlantic, June 2016)
  • India's Population Rise Puts it On Course for Rapid Growth (Article, The Independent, 2015)
Historic Population Policy:
  • The Nazi Racial State - Third Reich (BBC History article)
  • U.S. Eugenic Laws in 1960’s forced sterilization of 60,000 people (HuffPost article)
  • Payment to Eugenics Victims in North Carolina, USA - People of Color Targeted in Policy (NPR article)
Other helpful resources for today's class:
  • Population Policy (Fouberg Key Question 5) - Google Slides
