Last paper setup
Today I finished my paper. Today was all about finding final support for my argument. At first I had to backtrack because I had a while since I last worked on the paper. After I found my place, I started to look for what Slate said about batteries. This took a while and I did not find an exact quote about plane batteries, but about E waste in general. I wrote about how the waste was shipped from America to around the world. Another topic I found that I included in my paper was the fact that most electronics do not last the full time they are built to last for. This could have two meanings. Either People are replacing them much faster than they should be. The other possibility is that the manufactioners have caught on to Americans’ need to constantly buy and replace items. This resulted in the manufactioners making products that last less than half the time they are supposed to. After this I tied everything together and concluded by saying the green movement is a good thing. It may be a good thing, but it is catching on gradually and probably not fully replace the American mentality of aiming for bigger and better things.
