1) California is influenced by both the macro and micro climates. Which of these have a stronger influencing factor on weather and seasons? How else does the climate effect California (think population distribution, economy, etc).
2) Do the natural disasters we see in California have any necessary purpose for the natural environment? How and why have natural disasters gotten worse?
3) How do you think the two songs, ‘Box of Rain’ by The Greatful Dead and ‘Boyz N The Hood’ by NWA were influenced by the time and place they were each written?
