The 3 resources,"The Power of the Wind , Deacon Residential and Commercial Wind Turbines, and Wind Turbines 101 are about how wind energy is beneficial to human life.The text" The Power of The Wind "has a strong argument , while " Deacon Residential and Commercial Turbines" has a weak argument while the video,"Wind Turbines 101" needs some improvement.
The text "The Power of the Wind" is strong because the text has good reasoning because the author has logical reasoning to support his claim and he never uses bias. That statement is proved because in Paragraph 5 it includes,"Wind is an excellent for of energy because it is renewable, meaning that it will always be replenished by itself." This proves my claim because it shows that he states true facts and that it is logical because compared to coal and oil who emit gases and it is not renewable so it proves that wind power if beneficial. another piece of evidence from the txt includes,"However wind turbines cannot be placed just anywhere...Both

For example in the text, it included,”…and larger farms can provide much more clean energy for our homes and business…” This proves that the author has logical reasoning because it explains the benefits of wind turbine energy and how it gives clean energy to homes and business. The author is giving evidence why it is beneficial and he is giving logos which backs up his claim so that is good for his text. Some negative things is that he uses bias. It included in the passage,”…on land or offshore a reliable and renewable, clean energy source.” This proves that the author is bias because he is only taking his side and he is not giving any facts about why wind power is bad or any defects of wind power and turbines. The author is giving only good things about the turbines like the evidence above because he wants you to agree with you but he actually uses
Out of six First Nation groups, we agree Lower Kootenay Band to be the most favorable one to propose our wind energy project to after discussing with my group members. They have a very open territory of 6,000 acres, and a small population. Currently, they are seeking “Clean Energy Opportunities” and our business fits right in the criteria. The reason we did not choose Hesquiaht and Tsawout First Nation is because both are located on Vancouver Island with relatively denser population and many tourists. Ferries and ships occupy the sea nearby, almost impossible to develop offshore wind turbines.
Steve Olson uses rhetorical devices, such as, imagery, sarcasm, style, tone, voice, and symbolism to make his argument stronger and more effective. Olson begins his essay with imagery. The imagery in Olson’s essay helps reveal the biases
In 2010, it would have made sense for the construction of the Muskrat Falls Generation Facility to go ahead. With Nalcor, the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, and the First Nations living in the surrounding area as the primary stakeholders, the main concern is the dam’s effect on the environment. Examining the problem from two schools of ethical thought, utilitarianism and formalism, leads to the conclusion that the advantages for the average citizen would outweigh the drawbacks from damaging the environment. Utilitarianism would state that the creation of a dam would benefit many people living in Newfoundland and Labrador by creating jobs and allowing the province to be more self-sufficient. Clean energy allows the province to start replacing the damaging energy sources of oil and coal, positively influencing Canadians for generations.
Whitman uses two kinds of proofs in order to persuade his audience. Firstly, whitman uses a proof known as Examples: “For example, X and Y demonstrate that Z happens.” Whitman implements this proof by first making the claim, “America led the world in race-based law making…(Whitman para. 3 ).” Whitman then supports this claim by providing an example of
The author will usually rely on his examples to prove is arguments. He does not explain the claims he makes, which decrease the strength of his arguments. For example, he mentions that a high-five is “not the mutual appreciation of achievement, but the feeling we get upon the achievement of mutual appreciation”. This statement is arguable, some people perform the high-five to actually show appreciation of achievement rather than of trying. The author does not signify whatsoever why the high-five does not mean “job well-done”.

Furthermore, the type of examples Kluger, Aciman, and Steinmetz utilize involve strong data and facts to support their piece and make it more convincing. To illustrate, they describe, “ Just since 2004, the share of Americans who identify themselves as optimists has plummeted from 79% to 50%, according to a new Time poll. Meanwhile, more than 20% of us will suffer from a mood disorder at some point in our lifetimes and more than 30% from an anxiety disorder. By the time we 're 18 years old, 11% of us have been diagnosed with depression” (Kluger, Aciman, and Steinmetz 2). Given that their audience consists of more educated, well-read people, this evidence is particularly useful due to the fact it contains numbers and data that prove the writer 's’ main point and persuade their readers.
Stumbling on Happiness delivers an intuitive way of providing an explanation to a rather important and unsolved mystery. In the novel, Daniel Gilbert refers to using many techniques to create a well directed argument such as rhetorical questions, relaxed diction, parentheticals, pathos, logos, graphs and charts, and allusions. Developed throughout in which Gilbert uses to make the essay readable to everyone, that is those who have a slight understanding on psychology related to human emotions. Moreover, he never loses his ethos as a Harvard professor, which is important; if he were to l the book is the toneose ethos, then the whole argument would have been a waste.
The explanations are in good length, and the arguments includes the “to-what-effect.” The analysis demonstrates close-up reading by the
With green energy supplying electricity to more than 14% of American homes, there is no doubt that it is a worthwhile endeavor.., Though highly contested, the Cape Wind Project, proposes a wind farm to be constructed off the coast of Cape Cod. The Harvard-educated Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an opponent of the project, expresses his doubts and criticisms of the project in his op-ed column printed in the New York Times, “An Ill Wind Off Cape Cod” which he composed when he first heard that the company Energy Management is trying to build a wind farm on Nantucket Sound. He utilizes a genuine tone in order to get his thoughts across. Francis Broadhurst, a proponent of the Cape Wind Project and distinguished writer, writes “Cape Wind Is Sound for
(Pg 77-778) - The diverse and copious amount of examples Gladwell provides pushes his thesis on his audience since if he can pull this pattern out of any example of success then it must be true.
