week of Sunday, October 7: so we looked at possibilities for climate change-- what laws and stuff we could possibly enact and enforce that had to do with climate-- think of El Nino and enacting legislation in places like Peru when the first warning signs are found. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem too much-- i've found stuff on acidification, as well as salinity and temperature, though those don't seem particularly relevant to what we're doing here.
week of Sunday, October 14: getting ready for our group presentation on Friday. I'm supposed to be one of the presenters, so I'll look at the ppt in a bit to prepare.
week of Sunday, October 21: went on the Gloucester trip yesterday. I thought it was great, getting to see so many of the things we talked about in a more hands-on manner. main points: subsidies won't work, GPS system should work as long as it becomes a legit policy, fishermen are conservationists, and many of them are anti-government.
Okay, so I've moderated most of our out-of-class meetings. It doesn't sound that impressive, I guess, but we've spent a lot of time discussing and I think that's where most of my contributions have come in. =)
