What is the Three Gorges Dam?
How and why is the dam significant?
What do you think are the Top 10 most important pieces of information about the dam from the article?

16. Industrial China: The Three Gorges Dam
Mr. Glueck’s Top 10:
10 - The project took more than a decade to complete.
9 - While official estimates put the cost of production at $23 billion, international experts believe it cost more than double that.
8 - It's intended to stop the frequent flooding in the region.
7 - 1,300 archaeological sites have also been submerged.
6 - The project also increased the amount of cargo transported across the river to 50 million tons, triple the maximum annual amount prior to the dam's construction.
5 - The dam may have exacerbated China's 2011 drought, in addition to stranding ships and causing central and eastern China to face a power shortage.
4 - Environmentalists say the reservoir is accumulating silt and waste from cities and industries.
3 - It serves a purpose, however — The dam generates more than 18,000 MW of power a year
2 - The number of landslides and other natural disasters has increased by 70 percent since the reservoir filled up in 2010.
1 - But China still wants to build more dams!

“Smog Journeys”
As you watch the video, record any images that stand out to you, as well as what you believe the intended message of the video may be…
What did the piece suggest about the pollution in China?
What does the director believe…
Chinese director Jia Zhangke has a history of making films with a social message and has previously been censored by the Chinese government for his work.
In this film he tackles the air quality crisis which has seen particulate pollution at levels 20 times WHO safety limits in Beijing and other cities.
"The one thing that fascinated and shocked me the most was the fact that even on smoggy days, people still lived their lives as usual," he said of the new short film.

18. Fixing the Environment: Creative Solution!
Imagine you are a creative artist that has just been inspired to act because of the environmental issues in China!
You are going to create a piece of work titled “Fixing China!”
Your piece could be a poem, song, letter, cartoon, etc.
Your main focus should be on ways that the environment could be fixed in the country of China, as well as why you believe the environmental problems should be fixed in China!
FYI, President of China: President Xi Jinping

23. Go Geography! #47 – Population Density Effects on Daily Life…
3 CEV’s
Read the following information about how one area of life has been affected by population characteristics in certain places…
Rush Hour Subway Usage in Prominent Cities
Hamburg, Germany: about 3 passengers/square meter
New York, United States: 4 passengers/square meter

24. Population Density in SE Asia…
Some countries in South to East Asia have the highest population densities in the world.
Japan is one example of a highly densely populated area.
Japan, which is roughly the size of California, has a population about half the size of the United States!
ADDITIONALLY, the majority of the population is settled in about 16% of the country.

25. Population Density Examples
Comparing population densities (2017):
China
1.38 billion people / about 3.71 million square miles
The United States
325 m. ppl/ about 3.6 m. sq. miles
Australia
24 m. ppl/ about 3 m. sq. miles
Japan
127 m. ppl/ about 146,000 sq. miles
Japan’s arable land (land suitable for agriculture): about 18,000 square miles
Jumps from about 860 ppl/square mile to 7,000 ppl/square mile!

26. Reading Notes: Population Density and Japan…
Use the map provided and your textbook (map on pg. 445) to answer the preview questions 1-2 for Ch. 31
For sections 31.3 – 31.6, it may be helpful to use a jigsaw method to split up the work in your table groups
