Hyperlinked Task

Dani E's paper can very easily relate to something like lack of contraseptives...over population...dwindiling food supplies, living space....harmful to the environment....lack of resources will lead to fighting and basic human instinct....dehumanization....animalistic qualities...nations breaking down....apocalyptic meltdown....zombie invasion...death to all humanity.
Rori F's paper could easily introduce the idea of humans being the one's undergoing extinction as opposed to any animal currently on the list of endangered species. We become the hunted, the few, the endangered. A scarce civilization in the amazon living on what they find, living in fear of giant bugs, snakes and other animals.
Kari Koga's paper discusses how a blanace is difficult to obtain for kids between sports, school and keeping  a social life. What if sports were the only thing that got you anywhere in this world. The smart non-athletic kids would jet nowhere and the sporty maybe not so intelligent kids would rise to power and become the leaders of this world. We already see how sports strongly affect how high schoolers get into college with sports scholarships etc. What if this was the only way to get a higher education even if you are only at a certain level because of you abilities in sports? How would this change the world as we know it?
