Part+A

**//PART A: Research Land Degradation on a Global Scale://** //You should find as much information as possible about the following issues:// · Desertification · Deforestation · Urbanization · Draining of wetlands · Salinity · Over fishing and many more. //Questions to guide your research should include:// · What is the issue? · How does it happen? · Where does it occur? · Who is responsible (both directly and indirectly, eg- local farmers might clear forests (direct influence), but this may be in response to international demand for a particular resource or even unfair wages meaning farms must expand to survive (indirect influence))? · How does the issue affect People/Economy? · How does the issue affect the environment? · What is being done in response to it? · What solutions could you suggest to minimize the impact of the issue? **//NOTE: All research should be kept and presented as an appendix to PART B – any research, sketches, ideas noted throughout the task can add marks to your overall result…PROVIDED THEY ARE REFERENCED ACCURATLEY//**
