Please select one of the three prompts below and draft an argumentative response in your best academic voice. Your response should be submitted as a .doc or .docx file. Remember, you have access to Office 365 as an OCC student if you need access to a word processing program. Google docs or links will not be accepted for this assignment.  Your answer should be well-developed and represent your best writing. Prompt Choice #1: The COVID 19 pandemic of 2020 and beyond provoked a debate about how nations should manage responses to highly contagious diseases. Experts in various fields have argued that nations and states need to enact strict laws that close businesses like bars, gyms, and restaurants to stop the spread of the virus.  Opponents of the above argue that the economic devastation of business closures is more detrimental to the nation than allowing the virus to spread.  Please draft an argument that explores your opinion of the prompt. Prompt Choice #2: Large numbers of high school graduates have identified careers as content creators on social media platforms such as YOUTUBE and Tik Tok as their preferred profession.  The role of content creators in the national economy is a relatively new one and there is little data about the long-term future of content creation as a career.  Is content creation a good career choice? Please draft an argument that explores your opinion of the prompt. Prompt Choice #3: A fundamental problem in environmental science is the movement of carbon from the ground to the atmosphere and how this adversely affects our planet.  Since the industrial revolution, humans have utilized fuels like gas, coal, oil, and wood to create energy to live.  Burning these fuels moves the carbon from the fuel and releases it into the atmosphere.  As more carbon moves from the ground to the atmosphere the carbon balance changes in a harmful way. In your opinion, what is the best way to restore the carbon balance? Please draft an argument that explores your opinion of the prompt.   Your submission should be approximately 1,000-words (or around 4 pages as the target length), be double-spaced, in 12 point font, with 1″ margins. Remember to use what you have learned in Module 1 to brainstorm and draft your ideas to form an organized essay.
