Solution
As in 1949 when it was founded with the creation of the Council of Europe, the European Union\'s mission for today is to continue prosperity, freedom, communication and ease of travel and commerce for its citizens. The EU is able to maintain this mission through the various treaties making it function, cooperation from member states, and its unique governmental structure.
With so many different nations participating, the governance of the EU is challenging, however, it is a structure that continually changes to become the most effective for the conditions of the time. Today, treaties and laws are created by the \"institutional triangle\" that is composed of the Council representing national governments, the European Parliament representing the people, and the European Commission that is responsible for holding up Europe\'s main interests.
The Council is formally called the Council of the European Union and is the main decision making body present. There is also a Council President here and each member state takes a six month turn in the position. In addition, the Council has the legislative power and decisions are made with a majority vote, a qualified majority, or a unanimous vote from member state representatives.
For countries interested in joining the EU, there are several requirements that they must meet in order to proceed to accession and become a member state.
The first requirement has to do with the political aspect. All countries in the EU are required to have a government that guarantees democracy, human rights, and the rule of law, as well as protects the rights of minorities.
In addition to these political areas, each country must have a market economy that is strong enough to stand on its own within the competitive EU marketplace.
Throughout the 1990s, the \"single market\" idea allowed easier trade, more citizen interaction on issues such as the environment and security, and easier travel through the different countries.1) To strengthen the democratic governing of participating nations.
2) To improve the efficiency of the nations.
3) To establish an economic and financial unification.
4) To develop the \"Community social dimension.\"
5) To establish a security policy for involved nations

I Need Help To Prepare
1. There is a range of tectonic hazards associated with both volcanoes and earthquakes, including lava, pyroclastics, ash, lahars, ground shaking, displacement, liquefaction, and tsunamis.
2. The specific impacts of tectonic hazards vary depending on factors like the duration and scale of the hazard, how frequently it occurs, its magnitude, and the level of economic development in the affected area.
3. Countries approach coping with tectonic hazards in different ways depending on their wealth and access to technology, employing strategies like modifying hazards, reducing vulnerability, and mitigating losses.
Unit 4 Student Guide
The document provides guidance on writing a report style essay for a geography exam, including:
1) Research and preparation is key, with planning, gathering a balanced range of sources, and organizing materials into a file.
2) Practicing report writing helps understand the required structured format, which merges traditional essays with elements like numbered sections and diagrams.

Roots
The document discusses trends in the UK population including aging, immigration, and regional shifts. Some key points:
- The proportion of over-60s is expected to rise significantly, increasing the dependency ratio and challenging the economy.
- Immigration has helped offset population aging but its future impact is uncertain.
- Younger workers have moved to southern and eastern regions while older residents settle in coastal and rural areas.
- The upcoming decades will see the large "baby boom" generation retire, placing greater burden on a smaller working-age population to support them. Careful planning is needed to address this challenge.
World Cities
By 2030, 60% of the global population will live in urban areas, with Asia's urban population rising from 1.4 billion to 2.6 billion. There will be close to 30 megacities with over 10 million people, including Istanbul, Guangzhou, and Bogota. Many cities, especially in developing areas, face problems like sprawling slums, lack of infrastructure, and pollution as populations grow rapidly. Solutions require better planning and more sustainable practices around resource use, transportation, and waste management.
Global Groupings
The document discusses various ways that countries and economies can be grouped on a global scale. It examines economic groupings based on development levels and types of economies. Political groupings like trade blocs that countries form through international agreements are also covered. The impacts of transnational corporations on both host and source countries are summarized, noting they can bring both benefits like job creation but also costs such as environmental impacts and profits leaving the host nation.
Global Networks
Global networks come in many forms, including business, communication, transport, production, and political networks. The document discusses the growth of internet usage globally and some key factors related to development and connectivity. It also describes global hubs as highly connected places that other locations seek to connect to, often hosting large transnational corporations. Creating connections for poorer countries requires infrastructure investment, economic reforms, stable societies, human capital development, and attracting foreign direct investment. One example discussed is China's success from economic growth and reforms. The document also summarizes the One Laptop Per Child initiative and some criticisms of the project.
On The Move
The document discusses global migration trends, including types of migrants and factors that push and pull people to migrate. It focuses on migration within Europe, including illegal immigration across southern European borders and migration of eastern Europeans after the EU's expansion. Specific examples analyze eastern European migration to the UK, costs and benefits for both source and host countries, as well as challenges around managing migration.
Globalisation
Globalization refers to the increasing economic interdependence between countries through rising trade and financial flows, as well as the spread of technology. Developments in communication and transportation technologies have reduced distances and facilitated globalization over recent decades. This has led to growth in world trade and the rise of large transnational corporations operating globally. While some nations and people have benefited from these changes, globalization has also increased economic inequality between wealthy and poor countries.
Climate Change & Causes
Climate change occurs over short, medium, and long timescales. Short-term climate change involves global warming over decades, while medium-term changes occurred over thousands of years according to ice core and fossil records. Long-term changes shaped climate over hundreds of thousands to millions of years. Recent climate change has led to 0.5°C warming globally since 1970 due to increased greenhouse gas emissions from human activities like burning fossil fuels. This enhanced greenhouse effect from carbon dioxide and methane emissions is trapping more heat in the atmosphere and causing unprecedented global warming according to temperature and Arctic sea ice records.
