A title page that includes your First and Last Name, your class day and time, the title of your report, and the due date. 
Distinct sections: 
an introduction, a body which presents your findings, and a summary/conclusion;
In the report you must include an introduction of the topic, a body which presents your data with an interpretation of your graphics, and lastly, a conclusion that you have drawn from your data.
The report should be a minimum of 1000 words and You should have 5 paragraphs minimum.

The Introduction:

The Body: (include your charts and graphics in this section). In three separate paragraphs:

1. Identify the total world growth and trends.

2. Determine the impact on the growth rate by factors such as social economic status, education, religion, culture, women’s rights, and attitude towards birth control in different regions or countries. Remember, state the facts as you find them without opinion or ethical/moral judgment on your part. This is a science paper.

3. Lastly, identify the impact on natural ecosystems, wildlife, ocean resources, etc., that the human population is having, either regionally or globally.

(You won’t be able to cover every point in numbers 2 and 3, so pick two or three topics to emphasize and limit the focus of your paper.)

The Summary:

In your summary paragraph, after summing up your findings, you may state a conclusion or judgement as to whether or not, after analyzing the data, you believe that the current level of growth is sustainable indefinitely, or what actions you believe will ensure sustainable human population levels. Be sure to cite evidence from the body of your paper to support your conclusions.

The graphics:

You must include a data table (properly cited) and a graph or chart that you created from that data. 

You must include at least two other graphs, charts, or maps that support your topic.
