Answer to Question 1
On May 6, 2014, the top economic news story discussed a report claiming that climate change is already harming the economy. The report asserted that climate change is already bringing extreme weather such as floods, drought, and other weather-related disasters, all of which harm the nation's economy.
This story implicitly discusses the how question: Will goods and services be produced in ways that limit climate change or not? It also discusses the what question: Will goods and services that limit climate change, such as solar panels, be produced?
The story implicitly illustrates a tradeoff: If choices are taken to limit climate change, such as reducing carbon emissions from generating power, consumers will pay higher prices but the extent of climate change will be decreased.
