Economic Environment




1.       What newspaper did you visit?
I visited the Telegraph Journal.
2.       What article did you choose?
      I chose, “Same mistakes led to Great Depression: economist.”
3.       What law or regulation was in question?
The economic policies are in question.
4.       Does it provide an opportunity for the business or industry? Or a threat? Explain.
It could lead to another global recession and financial crisis. That would definitely cause a threat to businesses and industries. No money would lead to know business.
I chose this article because it could cause a lot of issues in our country. We don't want a situation like the U.S. has.

      1.       What newspaper did you visit?
I visited the Telegraph Journal.

2.       What article did you choose?
I chose, “City Hall teams with environmental program.”

3.       What law or regulation was in question?
Federation of Canadian Municipalities’ Climate Protection Program is in question.

4.       Does it provide an opportunity for the business or industry? Or a threat? Explain.
It provides a threat to certain businesses and industries because the Climate Protection Program is trying to prevent great amounts of greenhouse gas emissions going into the atmosphere. They are trying to make the air better and the environment in general but certain industries that need to give off the gases in order to make their products are endangered.

I chose this article because some businesses and industries are violating the regulation about gas emissions.
