DeVry University Gene Editing In Environmental Impact Discussion

Need a discussion post just like outlined below. My topic is gene editing in environmental impact. I will have further work on this in the future as well

To get started this week for your initial post, provide a summary of your section and an outline. Follow this format:

• Topic:
• Your Angle:
• Main idea of your section:
• Key points of evidence:
• Preliminary analysis of evidence:
• Conclusions and recommendations:
• References (provide at least one high-quality source at this point)

Here is an example:

• Topic: Geoengineering (this is a topic we’ve used in previous classes)
• Your angle: legal/political section writer
• Main idea of your section: Because geoengineering is an emerging area of study, few laws govern its use. The problem is that different nations have different climates, and each may approach geoengineering in a different way. Leaders of the world need to get together and discuss this important issue.
• Key points of evidence: Political leaders do not discuss or even mention geoengineering publicly. It is a political hot potato.
• Preliminary analysis of evidence: Politicians are most likely considering the use of geoengineering behind the scenes.
• Conclusions and recommendations: We need to have an open, honest discussion and craft appropriate regulations.
• References

Discusses how “marine cloud brightening,” a form of solar geoengineering, could potentially reduce the temperature of the ocean and save coral reefs. From a legal/political perspective, who gets to decide if this experiment should be allowed?
