What surprised you?

Write an 800–1000 word essay about the film you watched. Make sure to answer the following questions:
What major environmental or social issues were discussed in the film? Briefly summarize them.
What were the causes, impacts, and possible solutions discussed? Explain them.
Did you know about this issue before watching the film? What new information did you learn? What surprised you?
Search for other credible sources that discuss the issue. Do they support or refute the point of view presented in the documentary?
What do you personally recommend as the best way forward to address the issues highlighted in the film? Reference credible sources to support your recommendations.
After you have written your essay, make sure that you have addressed the proposed questions and fixed any grammatical errors. Also, check that you have included at least five credible sources. Make sure you have cited your sources correctly (in APA format) and included a References section in your paper.
