Argumentative essay

/in /by

Write an entry for an environmental science blog in which you argue whether or not the U.S. should restrict its lands and waters from being tapped for natural resources.  Your essay must be based on ideas and information that can be found in the “Natural Resources” passage set.

 

Manage your time carefully so that you can

  • read the passages;
  • plan your response;
  • write your response; and
  • revise and edit your response.

Be sure to

  • include a claim;
  • address counterclaims;
  • use evidence from both sources;
  • avoid overly relying on one source.

Your response should be in the form of a multi 5- paragraph essay
