Options (choose 1 of these):
- Given the long timescales involved, should the current generation be responsible for the wellbeing of future generations?
- Does an emissions trading scheme remove any individual responsibility for emissions?
- Vulnerability of small island developing states
These are examples I liked, feel free to adjust any of these questions to better suit the essay.
Outline:
There are a wide variety of ethical dimensions to the responses of individuals (such as scientists, politicians, environmental activists, journalists, and "normal" people) and organisations (e.g. Government, business and the media) to the information that human-induced climate change is occurring (and the misinformation that it is not).
The goal of this assessment task is to write a short essay (1000 words) presenting an in-depth analysis and discussion of a single ethical issue raised by climate change. You should aim for depth, not breadth. As is normal for an essay you are expected to read a variety of sources and produce a synthesis of what you have read. Headings and detailed referencing are not required (nay, frowned upon), although you should directly reference quoted material and refer to sources where you are closely following an argument; you should list all of your sources in a bibliography at the end of your essay. The bibliography does not count towards the word limit.
Marking will based on the following, equally-weighted criteria:
1. Does the essay address an appropriate topic in depth?
2. Is adequate context provided?
3. Does the overall structure contribute to explaining the issues to the naive (but intelligent) reader?
4. Is the information presented at an appropriate level and in appropriate detail?
5. Is there evidence of the synthesis of information drawn from a variety of sources as well as intellectual input from the writer?
