Code Resource: Energy and Environment “Clinton-Era Rule Protecting Forests Upheld” Friday, August 7, 2009

A national park is a reserve of land protected by a national government from major development. A national forest is used for timber harvesting, livestock grazing, water, wildlife, and recreation

Maggie: “I went hiking in the wilderness and I crossed like 5 roads. I thought there weren’t supposed to be any roads.” Mike: “Building roads makes jobs and so does logging. Anyways, trees are renewable resources.” Daniel: “I know logging creates jobs but clear cutting discourages hiking and hunting. With sustainable logging, you have the best of both worlds.” Maggie: “I’m pissed that my taxpayer’s dollars are going to subsidize road building and logging on public lands.” Gail: “Yeah, these are our public lands to conserve our ecosystems, there’s plenty of logging allowed on private lands.” Mike: “Regardless, roads are needed to get into the forest to do your hiking or logging.” Maggie: “There are tons of roads in national parks. Try hiking in to a crystal clear river to go fishing, you lazy bums.”

Define the Problem What is the problem? What are the different perspectives of the problem?

Personalize the Problem How do you connect to this situation? Are you a hiker, know a logger?

Analysis Are there any common themes? What are the roots/ causes/ consequences of the situation?

Critical Action What are the next steps? Given constraints, what can we do?

Addressing Missing Aspects Teacher observes for language feedback meaning, use and form follow up work

Feedback Be honest: How was this process?
