Population vs resources PRESENTATIONS

Your task is to produce a presentation lasting 10 minutes which examines the theories of Malthus, Bosreup, Ehrlich, Simon and the Club of Rome. It must include the following:

  1. Background about the person and their theory.
  2. To what extent is it true? For this I would like you to find examples.
  3. You must be critical of other theories also. This should be included in points 1 and 2.
It is up to you how you wish to present it. The Malthus group, the Club of Rome group and the Ehrlich group could join together and present a pessimitic view of the future whilst the Boserup and Simon groups could also get together in order to present an optimistic view. You must still present for 10 minutes though each though.

You can present your research in the form of a role play, PPT, film or all three. It is your choice.

YOU MUST ALSO PRODUCE A 1 PAGE HANDOUT THAT SUMMARISES YOUR RESEARCH/PRESENTATION.
