Answer the question and response two classmates’ feedback

magine you have been hired as a consultant for the United Nations. You have been asked to write an analysis of how global population growth has caused the following problem and how it affects climate change or population growth in a developing country of your choosing:

A growing global population that consumes natural resources is partially to blame for the release of greenhouse gases since human consumption patterns lead to deforestation, soil erosion, and farming (overturned dirt releases CO2). However, the critical issue is the burning of fossil fuels (hydrocarbons) such as coal, oil, and natural gas to produce energy that is used for things such as electricity production, and vehicle, heating, and cooking fuels. 

The UN has asked that you choose a developing country from this list: https://www.mrs.org/developing-countries-list.

The UN has also given you the following guidelines. 

Content

The UN has asked that your paper contain three sections.

The UN also asks that you use examples from your developing country when answering the questions. 

Introduction

Provide an introduction (a half-page minimum) that addresses points a-e below.

1. Explains the problem the UN has asked you to address in your own words; 
2. Identifies the three sections your paper will cover; 
3. Identifies the developing country you will consider; 
4. Tells the UN which causes of greenhouse gases you will explore; and 
5. Provides a one-sentence statement of your solutions at the end of your introduction paragraph. 

Section I. Background

Success Tips

• In answering each question, use examples from your developing country to illustrate your points.

• Create headings for each section of your paper as follows:  
  • Section I. Background 
  • Section II. How Emissions Cause Problems for the Developing World 
  • Section III. Causes of Greenhouse Gases and Solutions to the Problems Greenhouse Gases Cause 
• Use and cite at least five credible sources in your research. A list of potential resources is available below.

Scenario

John is one of the best parcel delivery employees where you are the direct employer of John. 

Under his employment contract, it is John’s duty to deliver packages on the east side of town on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. John, who has never been a religious person suddenly becomes devoutly religious and joins a highly respected religious group. 

John notifies you suddenly that it is against his religion to deliver packages on the east side of town on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays and therefore would be unable to do so. John then proceeds to notify you that his religious objection is protected under Title VII, The Civil Rights Act of 1964. 

You also realize that if John refuses to discharge is his employment duties on the grounds that it violates his religious beliefs that it would cause an undue hardship for the company and risk losing some very valuable accounts. 

As the company owner, what actions would you take in order to be sure that you are compliant under Title VII, The Civil Rights Act of 1964, yet ensure that packages are delivered on the side of town on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.

You are now ready to present to management a final report on  establishing a project team and project phases needed to initiate the  changes for a more centralized model of delivering HR services. Once the  management team receives the report and is thoroughly briefed on the  direction the project will take, you and your project team will begin  work on the project.

The management team report will be a consolidation of the  previous assignment papers you have written in this course plus a report  overview (sort of like an executive summary) and final conclusion  (offering importance of topics and recommendations for next steps). You  may make up a fictitious company name (do not use a real company) and  create your own HR project team name.

Instructions

Prepare a 25–30 page paper in which you:

1. Create a full 2-page (minimum) report overview (executive  summary) summarizing and emphasizing the key points of the report’s  contents, which are the topics from previous papers in the course. Hint:          
   • What Is an Executive Summary?
   • How to Write an Executive Summary for Your Proposal.
   • 12+ Best Executive Summary Templates & Samples.
2. Copy and paste all content with headings from the previous  course assignments minus any cover pages, running heads, introduction  and conclusion sections, and reference pages.
3. Prepare and include an original conclusion section to be  placed immediately after the paper content. Note: Do not use any  previous conclusion sections from past papers in the course. The  conclusion section must take all previous papers into account.
4. Create the reference page(s) by copying and pasting  all references from the previous four assignments and any new references  as a result of this report. Remember, the reference page should be  separate from the other text.

This course requires the use of Strayer Writing Standards  (SWS).For assistance and information, please refer to the Strayer  Writing Standards link in the left-hand menu of your course.
