Do you think modern-day political leaders are doing enough to address these problems? Here are a few tips: Organize your essay by using the aforementioned questions. Be sure your work answers all the questions, but in essay format. Proofread your essay. If possible, have another person proofread it as well. Correct all grammar, punctuation and spelling errors before submitting your paper. Complete a Works Cited page where you cite sources and / or websites. (This is not counted in the four pages) During your review of the environmental justice literature, you want to select between three and five peer-reviewed articles that highlight a case example of environmental injustice in the US. Read each article thoroughly and make notes summarizing the main problems from each and the steps taken or recommended to address these injustices. This will assist you greatly in your write-up. You should consult the readings posted on Sakai in the Week 5 folder, but you are not limited to just these. Please feel free to do your own independent search of journal articles and online sources, if you like. You are also not restricted to US case studies. kim___verweij_2016.pdf mahlanza_et_al._2016.pdf mckenzie_et_al._2016.pdf paavola_and_adger.pdf cantu_2015.pdf Get a 10 % discount on an order above $ 100 Use the following coupon code : NURSING10
