Question 2: Water as a Resource

When we discussed water, we considered the Chesapeake Bay. The main resource for that discussion

was the website of the Chesapeake Bay Foundation

the Bay” or “The Issues.”

In one type-written page, summarize the factual information.

In a second type-written page, discuss any economic or social or other effects that might be

associated with the issue. For example, air pollutants and agricultural runoff contribute to the health of the bay;

minimizing air pollution or agricultural runoff would be beneficial to the health of the

bay. Are there any economic or societal impacts associated with that?

Question 5: Air Pollutants

(
