What environmental problem do you aspire to solve?

My topic is Actions to take to Minimize Air Pollution caused by Transportation in Mexico City

  1. What’s happening? Why do we care? [10%]
  2. Why is it happening? [20%]
  3. Ways to respond – Consider alternative ways we can respond – policies, practices, projects, programs [10%]
  4. Finding the “best” way – Describe an appropriate multi-attribute decision making (MADM) method for policy analysis, including the ways you might choose to define “best”. Use what you have learned from the class to date, what you learn from two professors (week 12,13), and any literature sources (Method was introduced in Week 12, 13 was benefit/cost analysis (BCA), multi-attribute methods (MADM) and decision making under high uncertainty that involves systemic risk analysis) [50%]
  5. Concluding Remarks and Reflection [10%]

This is a Policy Analysis class, so make sure you focus most on the MADM , BCA, Smart and AHP (and other methods) to use for comparing policy options. This should be clear in the PowerPoint slide that describes the paper. How do you compare the policy options you will identify to address the air pollution problem?
