Answer:

Answered below

Explanation:

Environmental racism has to do with environmental population of neighborhoods populated by ethnic minority groups and races. Such population include; air pollution, garbage dumps, toxic waste facilities and hazards. An example of environmental racism is the asbestos in used housing and schools located in African American communities.

1) The American culture contributes to environmental racism because of their history with racism and slavery. The environmental policies were made to the disadvantage of minority groups.

2) Food scarcity is still very much a problem and a huge concern especially in poorer countries in Asia, South America and Africa. Increased population in these areas is a concern.

3) A higher population is a burden to resources available to us and therefore people should be concerned. The environment suffers as a result. The rate of pollution increases as human activities cause the destruction of natural protective mechanisms. Such activities include; industrial pollution, deforestation etc

4) Overpopulated countries should control their population growth. Methods such as birth control mechanisms and education would go a long way in helping this. Limiting the growth of an already overpopulated country is beneficial to humans and the environment.

In the given case study, the reliability of internet sources can not be trusted and possibilities are that such sources are biased.

Explanation:

Poaching is an illegal act of hunting or trapping of animals. So, internet sources that the grade 4 learners came across can not be trusted. The reliability of the blog can not be trusted as it supports the poaching system and confirms it to be a source of funding to animals. Since poaching an illegal act a blog that claims to support such an act would be unreliable and biased.

<u>For the fact, all internet sources can not be relied upon because not all of them assures good quality of information, their accuracy can not be trusted. Some sources are biased also. This problem arises because now people have access to post anything on the internet whether reliable or not</u>.
