Looking for a good topic and some good sources to help me write a paper.

Discuss a region or location that is facing or has faced a shortage of resources (energy, productive farmland, clean water and air, or minerals).

a. Write a clear description of the problem, the political and economic issues behind it, and how the shortage is affecting the community.
b. Analyze resource management factors that contributed to the shortage or management factors that could be used to alleviate the shortage.
c. Compose recommendations for addressing those resource management issues, and defend your proposed solution on both economic and environmental grounds.

Charts - Marginal cost & Cost benefit diagrams can be used to illustrate your case.
