Questions:
1. Thus far this semester we’ve asked what considered how what we do now impacts people and other living creatures in the future. What does it mean to consider the rights of future persons? Do you agree with this premise? Why or why not? Be sure to answer this question using one or more examples of how considering the rights of future persons may play out in the present.
2. Watch one or more of the Coal Ash Stories from The Lilies Project, a local environmental justice action creative project https://theliliesproject.org/hear-our-stories. Explore the site a bit. How does a project like this draw from/relate to two or more of our readings so far this semester? What you think and/or how do you feel about an approach like this? Why?
