- Where is the location of the country?
- What are its border countries?
- What are the natural resources listed? Do you notice any potential conflict minerals?
- What are the listed natural hazards?
- What are the current environmental issues?
3. Using what you learned about your country create an infographic, or powerpoint presentation that describes the country and the various environmental impacts facing that country.
