Question

Analyze sustainability as an approach to addressing social problems in Puerto Rico. Do you think this would help alleviate social problems? Discuss if you support or do not support statehood for Puerto Rico. Discuss how that would or would not be a positive step in helping to fix the urban problems.

Answer 1

Puerto Rico is located in the Caribbean sea and is one of the vulnerable locations for the people to live due to the frequent storms and hurricanes in this region and Puerto Rico is greatly affected by these storms. Some of the major social problems in this place are as follows:

• First, the infrastructure that is directly affected by the storms and the Hurricanes of the region.
• A long terms plan for the region that will give direction.
• Most importantly, the low educational reach is one of the major social problems and it can be solved by the efforts of the government as well as society as a whole.
• Proper management of natural resources is also a major concern for this region because nature is abundant in this region and many more.

Yes, a well-guided plan has the potential to alleviate these social problems.

Yes, I support the statehood of Puerto Rico because of its unique culture and traditions and its vulnerable position in the Caribbean sea and Statehood will provide this region to grow and prosper to framing guidelines for its developmental goals.

Urban problems can be dealt with the consultation with the people of the region and by a long term plan for the region.
