Look through recent popular literature (newspapers, magazines, etc…) for an article that deals with an environmental issue with a biological component.
You will then write a short (about 2 double-spaced pages) summary of the issue, followed by your evaluation of its validity , and your opinion on the issue.
There is no way your opinion can be right or wrong, but you need to support it with reasons … you do not need to cite literature in support of your opinion, but you do need to describe why your opinion is what it is using a logical thought process.
