The bioregional quiz brought many challenging questions. For example, the course of drinking water from precipitation to tap is not something that is automatically known by most. The length of the growing season for a specific location is also something that is not so easy to answer. The quiz was very difficult and definitely would have required a lot of research. However, McKibben's podcast was much easier to understand. McKibben brought up a variety of valid points which are also most likely not thought of on a daily basis. McKibben said the earth is changing, and the altered earth is no longer able to support the population and economic growth which has been constantly taking place for years now. The overgrowth will eventually cause societies to collapse. This is a new way of looking at what is taking place across not only the nation, but the world.
