In Essay 3, you will prove a claim about biodiversity in one specific area (health, environment, hunger, etc.). Your essay will have to be a rigorous analysis of the scientific support for and proofs against your position, and you must justify your position in light of both, especially through your counterargument. You will also have to analyze the validity of the studies you use to support your position and those that impeach your opposition. Consider flaws in reasoning, bias, exclusion of perspectives or data, poorly constructed experiments, etc. You must prove your thesis through well-reasoned, well-researched, well-organized argument.
You can pick any topic, hobby, activity, or interest that appeal to you and see how it might intersect with biodiversity.
Possible essay topics include, but are not limited to:
How a particular ecosystems biodiversity affects climate change
The effects of tourism OR urban development on a particular ecosystems biodiversity
Biodiversitys connection to medical/pharmacological developments
The effects of monocropping in agriculture
Pollinator biodiversity and its effects on agriculture
REMEMBER, this essay is an argument, not a report. You have to prove your claim.
You have a reason why your claim is true, and your essay needs to prove it through evidence and strong arguments.
