 Guiding Inquiry: What role do different individuals, organizations, and corporations have in taking action? (3.5.b, 3.4.c, 3.2.a, 1.2.c, 1.2.d)

Guiding Thought Question: Whose responsibility is It to take appropriate actions to preserve the environment? (individuals, non-profits, corporations, or governments) What can we do to ensure that those groups actually take responsibility and fulfill their duties?

Today's Learning Objective: Students will examine the ideas of individual vs. corporate vs. government responsibility by examining examples of issues and how they are caused, versus how are they being addressed.

All parties are responsible for the environment. We can hold our government accountable with our votes. We can hold our corporations accountable with our purchases.

I think that the government should have the responsibility of protecting the environment. This is because the government has the resources in order to properly take care of it. In order to make sure the government takes responsibility, there should be various checks and other forms of regulation in order to make sure that people are doing their job.

All groups should take appropriate actions to preserve the environment. Each of these groups must then hold all the other groups accountable. Individuals should hold the government, NGOs, and corporations accountable for protecting the environment, the government should hold individuals, non-profits, and corporation, etc.

I think the government should be in charge of protecting the environment because their job is to protect the people. We can influence the government by speaking up and voting for green energy! Also, day to day actions can help protect our environment, everyone just needs to take accountability and responsibility.

I feel like everyone needs to have a part in environmental preservation, as we all contribute to the downfall of the environment. It's incredibly hard to make sure everyone's doing what they're supposed to, and I'm not sure how we would do that.

All parties should take responsibility but the government should do the most because if they set regulations corporations will follow that. Some rules could be made for individuals as well. Non profits don’t really need laws to be eco friendly

I think that everyone plays a part in protecting the environment, however it should mainly be the government that is in charge of setting regulations and enforcing environmental protection. Individuals and companies can also help but they may not care about it and be more concerned with economics.

I think it is everyone the responsibility to take care of the environment because everyone need to work in order to see a big difference
