Select an environmental risk, such as climate change, and research two articles from peer-reviewed journals that have different perceptions of the level of risk (i.e., low, high).

   

Prepare a 1,050- to 1,400-word paper based on your chosen articles. Provide a summary of each article.

   

Compare and contrast the risk perceptions presented in each article. Identify any environmental stressors that are related to the environmental risk.

   

Conclude with a discussion of your own risk perception of the issue. Explain your stance and be sure to cite appropriate sources. This should not be strictly based on your opinion.

   

Format according to APA standards.
