Hello. My name is Jonah Kim. I currently reside in Lansdale, PA, but I usually tell people I was raised in Naperville, Ill. Currently I do not know for sure what career I want to pursue. Being a Political Science major, some careers that interest me are lobbying or working on a campaign. My interest in this course comes from geography sounding like a life course that should be required in order to be an inhabitant of earth. Other than that abstract reasoning, geography just generally sounds interesting I am not really too knowledgeable in the field which is why I am taking it now!
One issue that I think is important is the whole of idea of sustainability and how we as inhabitants of earth can better live in harmony with the earth. It’s especially important now with the earth reaching a threshold in regards to global warming, that many scientists have never seen before. And the whole idea of cooperatively coming together to help make our interaction with nature more sustainable is important.
Hi Jonah! It’s so nice to learn more about you. My cousin is also studying political science and I think it’s a really cool major that a majority of people don’t study. Another interesting job you could have with political science is working with the government doing risk analysis jobs. I wrote my second paragraph similar to yours as I wrote about climate change and how we do need to live better with Earth in order to not endanger it. I think the impacts humans have on earth and sustainability have some similarities.

I completely agree with you about the importance of sustainability. In order to protect earth and our natural resources we all need to figure out ways to survive without destroying our environment. However, I feel like it will always be difficult for people to come up with good solutions because there will always be people who disagree with one another. Hopefully, one day everyone will try and make a difference to save our natural resources along with earth.
