Supporters of [insert the selected issue here]

What group(s) in American society does the perspective appeal

to?

What organizations promote the perspective?

What are the biases in the perspective?

Does the perspective appeal to you? Why or

why not?

What objective evidence is used to

support the perspective?

Electric vehicles People concerned about climate change/global warming, pollution, and natural resource exploitation (oil and gas). These people are usually of a younger demographic (under 40 years of age).

Organizations such as the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) promote the use of electric cars in order to reduce emissions, pollution, and the extraction and use of natural resources for nonelectric vehicles. The makers of electric vehicles would also likely promote the use and sale of these vehicles.

Biases of this perspective would include the assumption that gas-powered vehicles are the sole cause of environmental pollution and that electric vehicles would easily solve or reverse global warming/climate change.

Electric vehicles are most appealing to me because I would personally enjoy using renewable power rather than relying on a non- renewable resource such as gas or oil.

Empirical evidence from the U.N.’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) concluded human- induced climate change is happening and the effects are already evident.

Maintaining gas-fueled cars as primary means of transportation

Car enthusiasts would likely support maintaining gas-fueled cars because very few high-performance cars are electric; most are fueled by gas.

Automotive lobbyists, car manufacturers, and oil producers would promote maintaining gas-fueled cars.

Automotive lobbyists, car manufacturers, and oil producers profit a great deal from the creation and sale of gas- fueled cars as well as the gas that is sold to fuel them.

I have owned a gas- fueled car my whole life and it is expensive to purchase gas for it, so this approach appeals least to me.

A study by Christopher W. Tessum and colleagues (2014) reported a battery- powered car recharged with electricity generated by coal-fired power stations is likely to cause more than three times as many deaths from pollution as a conventional, petrol-driven vehicle.

Issues Behind Addictive Drug Use

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, read the required chapters from the text and review the required articles for this week. Humans have engaged in psychoactive drug use, sometimes in formal (ceremonial) settings and sometimes recreationally, since before recorded history. It has only been in the last century or so that abuse and addiction have become large-scale problems. Using the literature and your own insights into these issues, formulate an argument as to why the problem has reached its current scale. In your discussion, evaluate the employment of psychoactive drugs from the aspects of a risk-benefits analysis and ethical considerations such as the risk of addiction versus the cost of punitive action. Also explain purely pharmacological issues such as pharmacokinetics and routes of drug administration and dose. If needed, include factors such as supply, cultural attitudes to drug use, and the context of drug use

E. STUDENT’S QUESTION

Based on his current habit, which talent have you identified in your child? I believe my child will be pro in sports. Do you believe that you are financially stable to raise your son in a healthy environment? Yes.

Reaction

I have learned multiple things from this interview. Firstly, pregnant mothers are usually healthy-wise and so require a lot of care. Two, children like adults can work/play in groups. Three, children too have their favorite meals. Four, just like adults, children also can identify their favorite TV program (Gutnick et al., 2011). What surprised me the most is that children usually fall sick frequently in their infancy. I wonder how parents manage to sense the change in their health conditions, given that toddlers cry although regardless of whether they are sick.

During the interview, I empathized with the mother when she said that her health condition was very delicate during her entire pregnancy and when she said that her son felt the same during his infancy (Koren et al., 2012). However, I liked it when she said she sees her son as a sports’ pro in future. That was so motivational for me. In general, the mother was very corporative, and I love that.

Before this interview, I used to think that all toddlers have to be reminded to go to the bathroom. But now, I know some can know when they want to relieve themselves and notify their parents or guardians. Also, before this interview, I used to think that toddlers do not have their favorite meal (i.e., they love anything sweet). But now I know that kids’ too have their favorite meal, including “non-sweety” foods (Dias et al., 2011).
