Global Issues & China(Big Box Mart 2:25)

Pollution/Climate Change:•Definition- Global warming is an average increase in the temperature of the atmosphere•How- Global warming can occur from a variety of causes, both natural and human induced. It can occur as a result of increased emissions of greenhouse gases from human activities. •Why is this a problem?

• Human health can be affected directly and indirectly by climate change in part through extreme periods of heat and cold, storms, and climate-sensitive diseases such as malaria, and smog episodes.

• Animal habitats and food sources are in danger • Rising sea levels and melting glaciers

•What is China’s role?•Increased pollution due to lack of regulations in many Chinese industrial centers has decreased air and water quality. •China accounts for 20% of all greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere.

Global Issues & China

Definition- Movement in the late 1960s early 1970s to increase crop yields and avoid famines due to poor agricultural production. How? Technology was utilized to create better seeds that would increase the amount per harvest, be more resistant to disease, require less fertilizer and sunlight, and be able to adopt to various soil compositions. Why is this important? The worlds poorer nations and regions were suffering from poor crop harvests thus triggering famines and political instability. It was also viewed as a humanitarian issue.

Title: Cambodia

Warm-Up:1. How many Koreas are there?2. How many Vietnams are there?3. List three facts about the Korean War.4. List three facts about the Vietnam War.

Problems in Cambodia•1975: Communist rebels- Khmer Rouge – set up a communist regime- brutal, violent•Leader: Pol Pot•Goal: transform Cambodia into a rural agrarian society•How: relocates people- forceful marches out of cities to the country side•2 million people are slaughtered during the “transformation” to “Year Zero”•1978- Vietnam invades and overthrows the Khmer Rouge- a less repressive government is installed

The enormity of what Pol Pot and his Khmer Rouge party did in the latter half of the

1970s defies hyperbole. The only word for it: genocide. The

death toll: certainly more than a million,

perhaps twice that amount. Among

the first evidence of the horror, this "killing field" was

uncovered in 1980.

One of the purveyors of massacre was the Khmer Rouge secret police, which turned this Phnom Penh high school into its headquarters, renamed S-21. Thousands were tortured and executed in former classrooms.

The school has now been refashioned into the Tuol Sleng Museum of Genocide. Thousands of pictures of Khmer Rouge victims hang on its walls: men, women and children -- including this unidentified girl and the people in the photos that follow -- who were duly photographed, then tortured and killed.

The name Khmer Rouge, which means "Red Khmers," was given to a left-wing Cambodian faction in the 1950s. Led by Pol Pot, it gained control of Cambodia in 1975. And then began one of the century's greatest massacres

Pol Pot declared "Year Zero" and began a radical program to create an idealized agrarian communist society. He crushed social institutions such as banking and religion and emptied cities of their inhabitants

Intellectuals and anyone else seen as standing in the way of the new social order were mercilessly killed, while many of those who escaped execution died from overwork and starvation

The Khmer Rouge was ousted from power by a Vietnamese invasion in 1979. But it had already caused the deaths of between 1.5 million and 2 million people, according to Western estimates. Many victims, such as this unknown woman, may never be identified.
