8S Christmas Work: Part I

With some of you having exams early in the New Year, we need to keep your Geographical brains ticking over. I have printed you all a resource pack and all of the questions can be answered from that ... although it would do you no harm at all to keep abreast of the news and what is going on around the world.

Please choose a question from below and email me your answer (send your essay as the text of the email rather than attaching a word/Pages document ... it is easier to mark and return)
