About the public lecture.

A few weeks ago, I went to McGill to listen to a public lecture titled Good Dams and Bad Dams with some classmates. Before i went there, I was a little excited because it was my first time. When the lecture started, I got nervous because I knew I was not able to listen to it twice. However, I gradually had confidence in listening their lecture. After listening to the lecture, I felt satisfied because i was able to participate in not only group work, but also a public lecture.By attending it, I could consider that the differences between good dams and bad dams for hydroelectric power in terms of their environmental and social impact as well. If I have eough time, I am going to go to public lectures as much as i can in order to have many good experiences.

POPULATION

1. Technology is going to help people increase food production.
There will be more various cultures.

2. Food is not going to be enough and growing population is going to consume more resources, and cause more pollution

3.people shoud give more assistance and organize social systems.

4. I believe that population growth will cause several problems with society, environment,and economy.However, if the governments prepare to find solutions and figures problems out , these problems will be solved.

POPULATION
1. My grandparents had 2 sons and 1 daughter,and my parents have 1 son and 1daughter.
I want to have 1 son and 1 daughter.
2. The korean population is approximately 48,782,274. I think the population has negative consequences on the quality of life. Because if there is population explosion , it will cause many social problems such as houses and land.
3. The earth's population is approximately 60 hundred million.
4. I think there are several factors such as death, food, and disasters. Similarly, these apply to the human population through nature.
5. I believe that the governments are not allowed to control population. Because giving a birth is human instincts and a human right. It can cause lack of balance between human beings and nature.

Happiness

Before reading the articles, happiness was that people just feel satisfied with themselves or achieve their goals.However , by reading them, I realized that there are many factors such as wealth, inheritance, achievement, flow, relationships, and Faith. These give various influences on people. Happiness can be interpreted as different perspective as well.
