1 GLOBAL RISK SOCIETY Valeska, Franzi, Caro, Isabelle, Clara, Lennart, Thomas, Peter-Jan, Julius

2 World Risk Society Environmental Problems Technical Problems Modern Problems

3 T ECHNICAL PROBLEMS

4 E XAMPLES Chemical weapons Genetic engeneering Nuclear energy

5 C HEMICAL WEAPONS Chemical weapons are mostly man-made toxins Countries are suspected of chemical weapons For example Iran, Iraq, USA, UK, Syria and China In the Iran there was because of the use of chemical weapons in a war…

6 C HEMICAL WEAPONS Problems : - Use of chemical weapons couses bacl injuries and using them is against very important human rights ever more against human rights than war.

7 C HEMICAL WEAPONS Solution : - A solution would be that you dispose of the chemical weapons and global set designs which prohibits the use of chemical weapons.

8 G ENETIC ENGINEERING manipulation of an organism's genome using biotechnology. E.G. : cloning, gender selection…

9 G ENETIC ENGINEERING Problems : - What if we begin to make other people by machines ? - What if you can choose the Intelligence of baby´s ?

10 G ENETIC ENGINEERING Solutions : - Good agreements with strict laws - We must stop cloning of people

11 N UCLEAR ENERGY Nuclear energy usually means the part of the energy of an atomic nucleus, which can be released by fusion or fission or radioactive decay

12

13 N UCLEAR ENERGY Problems : - Danger of accidents - Pollution because of the uranium - No solution because of the disposal problems - Danger of terrorism - Limited availability of uranium

14 N UCLEAR ENERGY Solution : - Stop producing energy with nuclear power, use renewable energy

15 M ODERN PROBLEMS Overpopulation Today population about 7 billion  2050 = 10 billion Without importing recourses from other countries Europa would have to less food We need much more than we can grow

16 M ODERN PROBLEMS Another modern problem is the world poverty Big problem  unequal distribution of money Rich countries ( Germany) poor countries (Romania)

17 E NVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMS global warming Earthquakes meteor showers

18 G LOBAL WARMING : C AUSES Man-made causes (antropogenic causes) e.g. pollution, population, … Natural causes e.g. release of methane gas, climate changes, … Consequences Health Weather Patterns Wildlife Glaciers and sea levels

19 S OLUTIONS Efficient use of energy Alternative energy resources

20 M ETEOR SHOWER is a celstial event in which a number of meteors are abserved to radiate from one point in the night sky the meteors are caused by streams of cosmic debris called meteorids entering earth‘s atmosphere at extremly high speeds on parallel trajectories most are smaller than a grain of sand, so almost all of them desinegrate and never hit the earth‘s surface
