Choose one factor that is contributing to or is a consequence of climate change. Explain what that factor is and how it relates to climate. Discuss how you think anthropologists might be able to address that factor in order to limit the negative consequences of climate change. Be specific and use examples.

Examples of climate change factors include, but are not limited to:

Rising sea levels
Greenhouse emissions
Deforestation
Burning of fossil fuels
Severe weather
When considering what anthropologists can do to help, think about:

Holism
Anthropological methods
Applied anthropology
Local communities
