REFLECTION QUESTIONWaterWhat would a sustainable water future in your region look like? What needs to change?
yun bai 4/20/2025 2:47 AMIn my region, a sustainable water resource future will be achieved through intelligent water resource management, the application of technological innovations, and strict water resource protection policies, while promoting public awareness of water conservation. It is necessary to accelerate the construction of rainwater collection and wastewater recycling systems, strictly control industrial and agricultural pollution emissions, and guide the whole society to form an intensive water use model through policies such as price mechanisms and ecological compensation. -

REFLECTION QUESTIONTransportationThe US spends roughly 20% of its federal budget on defense. In contrast, 2% goes to education, 20% goes to social security and just 3% goes to transportation infrastructure. Do these numbers surprise you at all? Why or why not? How would you adjust them if you could?
yun bai 4/18/2025 9:22 PMThe allocation of the federal budget in the United States reflects the trade-offs of national priorities: 20% is spent on defense to maintain a global military presence, while education receives only 2%, highlighting the insufficiency of investment in human capital. Although social security accounts for 20% and supports an aging society, it is necessary to be vigilant about long-term fiscal pressure. If the budget structure is optimized, inefficient defense projects are moderately reduced, and resources are redirected to educational equity, infrastructure upgrading, and sustainable technologies, it will be possible to balance security needs and future competitiveness, and inject lasting momentum into social development. -
