Assignment: Toulmin argumentative essay in 3rd person. “Research your position using collegiate-level resources. As part of your essay, present the opposing side correctly and without bias. Rebut points of the opposing side as part of your total argument.”
Topic/issue: Do electric vehicles truly emit less greenhouse gas emissions than conventional gas-powered vehicles?
The transition from gas vehicles to electric vehicles will help Americans reduce their carbon footprint.
The United States still uses fossil fuels to generate electricity which contributes to global warming/gas emissions. Although electric vehicles are not currently living up to their zero-emission potential due to fossil-fueled power plants, their emissions are still lower and will continue to decrease as the U.S. moves towards a renewable energy infrastructure.

Choose two of the 4 processes listed below and explain the evidence available as to how this process is relevantto global climate change. The evidence can be an explanation of how it is correlated to global Climate Change or you can statistics number, charts or scientific studies count as evidence depending on A-D below.
Sea level rise
Increase in atmospheric CO2
Ocean acidification
Increase in atmospheric temperature
(5 points) Geologic research has shown that, historically, atmospheric CO2 concentrations have increased when oceanic ridges are spreading quickly, and atmospheric CO2 concentrations have decreased when oceanic ridges are spreading slowly. Today, oceanic ridges are moving slowly. So why is CO2 higher today than historical records?

Do you think people who are ill should or should not do research on the Internet? Or, do you think they should but they need to go about it the right way
March 14, 2021/in English /by Eunice
Most people say it is best to research one’s health condition on
the internet. However, many doctors would disagree because they
claim that many patients have become “cyberchondriacs”: they
diagnose themselves by doing a Google search…and then they
imagine the worst! The article called “The Anxiety of Waiting for Test
Results” says that people can benefit or maybe over-react to learning
the results of their test results.
