Paper details A brief introduction to your topic (Lake Okeehobee Discharges) and why the scientific understanding of it is important to examine it as a means to develop policy and management strategies that lead to solutions. The main body of your presentation represents the science and scientific conclusions that will later support your policy recommendations, and a determination of causation and its nature (system characteristics). Your policy recommendations for the lake okeechobee discharges and your reasoning behind them including your expected outcomes. My paper is on the Lake Okeechobee Discharges. In my essay discuss the background of the problem and the environmental problem it poses. Discuss the harmful effects of the discharges and why human manipulation of natural landscapes is a serious problem. Discuss proposed solutions to the discharges and pros and cons of the existing policies. Give your own policy recommendation for what you should do. I argue that diverting the water towards the natural flow of the everglades and continuing to build reservoirs is best policy moving forward. But also talk about how I’m skeptical any lasting policy will make a difference because of the politics and damage already done. PowerPoint helps a little with the organization. main thing is to discuss destruction on the environment caused by the discharges, the existing policy pros and failures, and my policy recommendations? going forwards
