I can add pictures in the future but now refer to google maps/google earth.
This is a single road with no light poles. not many speed limits. animal crossing. at night accidents take place by having the wildlife animal come out of nowhere. The aim is to put street lights. I can provide more details and reference pictures in the future.
The short essay should be 1000-1200 words maximum (typed, 12-pt font, double-spaced) exclusive of photos, maps and other illustrations. The evaluation will be based on: evidence of engagement with the ideas and concepts of political ecology and landscape (including readings, lectures, and student presentations); primary and secondary source research; compelling analysis and synthesis; evidence of critical thinking; good organization of ideas; and overall quality of writing (including APA referencing). [Note: APA style uses (author, date) in-text reference for paraphrased material and (author, date: page) for cited material (in quotation marks). Footnotes are reserved for additional explanatory information. All references are compiled into a complete bibliography at the end the paper.]
Books and reports on your local landscape are useful to consult. So are the local library, the local archives, and perhaps the Ontario Archives. If it proves impossible to visit these repositories, try their websites for sources and photos. Note historical photos at OLDTO: Mapping historical photos at https://oldto.sidewalklabs.com/. Check out air photographs that cover different points in time at City of Toronto, Air photographs at https://www.toronto.ca/city-government/accountability-operations-customer-service/access-city-information-or-records/city-of-toronto-archives/whats-online/maps/aerial-photographs/aerial-photographs-1947/). Check out, too, the landscape for lost rivers and water bodies at Lost Rivers at http://lostrivers.ca/disappearing.html. When consulting these sources, do you have the possibility to put together repeat photography sequences? You may want to consult the free app Driftscape to explore local histories. The City of Toronto also has a useful website called StrollTO that contains self-guided neighbourhood tours at https://www.toronto.ca/explore-enjoy/festivals-events/showloveto/strollto/. Stefan Kipfer provides some inspiration in The Naked City: Traversing Toronto in pandemic times (Toronto: Socialist Project, 2020) at https://socialistproject.ca/content/uploads/2020/07/naked-city.pdf. John Warkentin’s Creating Memory: A guide to outdoor public sculpture in Toronto (Toronto; Becker Associates, 2010) could also be of some use. When reviewing these sources, consider what the names of places and institutions tell you about the landscape.
I’ve attached some readings for the paper.
Need a communicative writer.
Reflection commentaries should be two pages (typed, 12-pt font, double-spaced). They should 1) summarize the main arguments presented in each reading, 2) identify the political and ecological processes or relations at play, and, most importantly, 3) make connections between the readings. Use proper in-text citations (APA style) as appropriate. Commentaries will be evaluated based on demonstrating your comprehension of the readings, evidence of original thinking, and the overall quality of the writing.
You must write a short essay on the following topic:
Define “sustainability science” by referring to appropriate academic books and papers.
The essay should be 1000 words. Please include an extensive reference list in the essay and said reference list is excluded from the abovementioned 1000 words.

Assume that you have been asked to give advice to city leadership (mayor, city council, transportation commissioner, planning director) about the potential for improving conditions for non-motorized transportation and encouraging people to walk and bicycle more. To prepare your response, interview 4 people of your choosing. You should interview two males and two females, preferably from various age groups. Develop a list of 6 interview questions about the barriers that prevent people from walking and bicycling more (approximately 3 questions on walking, 3 questions on bicycling) stemming from your engagement with the material from this learning module. Report the findings in a memorandum addressed to city leaders in which you synthesize the responses and summarize to produce findings. Include an appendix with your memorandum containing two key components: (a) a list of your survey questions, and (b) a short profile (without name or other identifying information) of the people you interviewed. Your entire project (including appendix) must be 800 to 1,200 words in length (but no longer than 1,200 words in length). Remember, your task is to use what you find from your interviews to inform city leadership about why people might choose not to walk or bike, and to make suggestions about how to change those choices. Your memorandum should demonstrate mastery of the material in this module. Convert your memorandum to PDF before uploading. Comment on two students’ projects. Students can earn 2 points for this project. Assignments must meet all criteria to receive credit. Incomplete assignments are not eligible for credit. To receive credit, assignments must adhere to the writing expectations set forth in the course syllabus. Before submitting, check and re-check your assignment to ensure that it meets the guidelines of this project statement. Tips Your memorandum should begin with an address block (containing, at least, “to”, “from”, “date”, and “subject”). A generic guide to memo writing can be found here Your memorandum need not conform exactly to those subheadings, but should include the basic layout, in particular the memo heading. Your subsections may be slightly different, focusing on points such as those suggested in the bullets above. Keep in mind that the readability of your memorandum is greatly increased when you provide your narrative in logical subsections separated by subheadings. You should consider various types of barriers that may prevent people from walking and bicycling or reduce the likelihood of walking and bicycling. For example, people may experience access barriers, limited travel options, physical barriers (occurring in the built environment), perceptual barriers (perceived conditions, versus actual conditions, affect decisions), cognitive barriers (difficulties in understanding), information barriers (lack of information about travel options), and other types of barriers, You will include a list of your interview questions in the appendix, but it is not necessary to include the interviewees’ responses (you will, however, synthesize and summarize the responses in your memorandum narrative). Interviewee profiles could follow this format: (a) I interviewed a 38-year–old mother of two children who lives in an older suburb and who works part time in a medical office and chauffeurs her children to school and activities; (b) I interviewed a 23-year-old recent college graduate (male) who lives in a large city and works in high-tech and who does not own a car (but is saving money to buy one). Remember, memorandum writing is a bit different from term paper writing. Remember to put information such as important materials, findings, or facts at the beginning, and recommendations toward the end. Also remember that memorandum writing is very purpose-driven, so it should be concise and to the point. Bibliographic references are not required for this assignment, but if you do refer in your project to published sources, do so in a consistent and proper format (as outlined in the module 3 assignment). An example of a real world planning memo can be found here. Your memorandum need not be this extensive, since this assignment encompasses a smaller effort than the example memo. You should, however, observe and emulate the style and purpose. Note that it is highly organized, and focused on the task at hand, which is identified in the “subject” field in the heading.
