For this assignment, you will write an essay that examines U.S. and international environmental law.
The first part of your paper should discuss one U.S. law from each of the following categories: air, water,
toxics, waste, energy, and natural resources.
Following your overview of the six U.S. environmental laws, select another U.S. environmental law, and
describe at least two positive and two negative impacts of the law.
Subsequent to your analysis of U.S. laws, explain why there are international environmental agreements.
Then, select an international environmental agreement, and discuss it.
In the last paragraph, summarize your essay, reflect on what you learned most in the course, and present
how the course will help with your career.
In your paper, limit the amount of direct quotations. The vast majority of your paper should contain
paraphrased information from your sources and should include your own thoughts on the laws that you
present.
