Today's schedule is D-C-Lunch-A-B

D - Geography 12 - Today we will finish the review of Jared Diamond's book Collapse. After this we will take a quick look at global warming and climate change along with potential impacts here in BC and across the globe. We'll watch the National Geographic DVD "Six Degrees Could Change the World". In the documentary, National Geographic visualizes the devastating ecological impact each single degree increase in temperature could have on our planet over the next century.

For more information see the National Geographic Preserve Our Planet website and the Six Degrees interactive site..

C - Introduction to Law 9/10 - Since we had a surprise library block yesterday, today we'll finish watching the Law & Order episode "Family Values" (Season 5 Episode 4). This episode is based on the Amy Fisher attempted murder of her lover's wife Mary Jo Buttafuoco. Check out the following websites to find out more about the case:
