, Introduction
My aim in compiling this portfolio was to reflect on the things that have struck me throughout
this crazy module.
My starting point for doing this was to revisit my opinions to the multiple choice questions
which were presented in the Crossroads assignment. I present these current opinions, together
with my original opinions, and some brief notes in the section entitled: “Back at the
Crossroads!”
Once I have done this, I draw some key conclusions about this crazy module and about the
things that did indeed strike me.
Back at the Crossroads!
1. (YOU MUST WRITE NOTES ON THIS QUESTION) “Unless fossil-fuel use slows dramatically, the
earth’s average temperature could rise by six degrees Celsius in the next 100 years.” My personal
opinion on this statement is most closely described by:
a. Who cares?
b. I don’t believe this climate change nonsense.
c. Six degrees will make winters much more bearable to me personally.
d. I’m a bit concerned about this, but there is nothing that I can do about it.
e. I’m a bit concerned about this, but why should I invest my personal time, effort or money in
solving a general social problem.
f. I think that individually we can and should strive to solve this problem for the greater good.
Choice now: I think that individually we can and should strive to solve this problem for the
greater good.
Choice in assignment 1: I think that individually we can and should strive to solve this problem for
the greater good.
Notes: The tone is cautionary and the sentiment is one of warning
