As you read Gibson and Farah, "Environmental Risks to Public Health in the United Arab Emirates: A Quantitative Assessment and Strategic Plan", think about how is uncertainty treated? How do they value "intangibles"? I also want you to think about whether they did a good job in these analyses. What other information would you want to know? If you wrote the report, would you have done things differently? Write a 1-2 page constructive critique of it. You should carefully read it and then consider what its strengths are and how it could be improved. A good way to think of this: imagine that you were handed this analysis as a "draft report" and it was your job to improve it - what would you suggest/try? It isn't required, but the suggestions you make should probably reference some of the many topics already covered in the book Theory and Practise in Policy Analysis by Granger Morgan. Your critique could address the methods, assumptions, presentation style, or other aspects. Did the analysis use the right methods for their goal? Did they properly treat time preference, uncertainty, and human decision making? Are the questions that they answered usefully for decisionmakers?
