Can you help me with my powerpoint
The information you provided in your presentation on Threats to the Global Environment has led to productive debates at the UN General Assembly! There are now questions about prioritizing the issues at hand. Some of the countries are challenging your recommendations and questioning your reasons for not including the issues they believe are priority.
From the initial eight global threats, there are four remaining threats that you did not choose in the list of major global issues. Review the list of topics and reflect on two that you did notuse in last week’s assignment. Defend your reason for considering these topics lower in priority than the ones in your presentation.
Energy sources
Civil war
Globalization
Poor health of entire populations
Lack of educational opportunities
Cultural taboos
Inappropriate uses of technology
Climate change
The completed version of this assignment will consist of the following:
Select two threats from the list above that you did not use in your Assignment 3a presentation.
Create a minimum two-page document in which you outline a counterargument for the two threats you selected:
Write an opening statement describing the perception of each threat.
Write one paragraph for each threat (two paragraphs total) in which you give three reasons to explain why the threat is less of a priority to the global environment than the four you selected in Assignment 3a. Support your reasons with at least three credible sources.
A conclusion statement for each threat.
Cite at least three credible sources excluding Wikipedia, dictionaries, and encyclopedias for your assessment. A brief list of suggested resources has been provided at the end of the course guide.

Cultural taboos
Taboos are beliefs that are related to different communities in the world. Apparently, each community is guided by its own cultural taboos. It is paramount that a taboo common and acceptable in one community may be totally unacceptable in another community. Breaking or doing against these taboos is prohibited and they are passed from one generation to the other as a way of preserving the culture of that community (De Mooij, 2018). The Countries that follow the cultural taboos are likely to experience loss of lives especially when those who go against the taboos are punished. This is a global issue for the United Nations. However, unlike other Global issues such as civil wars, pollution, changes in the Climate and limited education facilities in the world, which are considered by the United Nations as major issues, taboos are not given much weight.
