Chapter 13

Section 1.

1. Three major reasons for economic change in Europe are genetically modified foods, The Maastriccht Treaty, and because more countries are shifting towards a service industry

2. Since the fall of Communism, farming has improved because farmers have more incentive to work harder, the two television networks linked to form INTELSATs, and the European Union was formed.

Creative Writing: While transportation systems are important for service industries, it is much more valuable and worth-while to first develop communications, because without proper communication between industries, tasks cannot be completed and transportation cannot be improved with their lack of money.

Section 2.

1. Because some farming industries overgraze their livestock, remove too much vegetation, etc. soil erosion begins to occur. Industries that have business in building cities cut down forests in order to make them. Due to industries that produce carbon emissions, global warming causes flooding in cities.

2. In order to protect Europe's environment by legally attacking industries who create too much pollution, replacing carbon fuels with natural gases, and organized clean ups in rivers, lakes, etc.

Creative Writing: The anti-pollution laws and acts put in place by members of the EU certainly help the environment of Europe in the present and in the future. Without these laws, major industrial companies would continue to use fossil fuels and put Carbon Dioxide into the atmosphere to aid climate change.
