Analyzing Purpose

In this post I have attached a coggle brainstorming the goals of my project, the plausible reactions and their consequences, and the not plausible reactions to Project 3.  The coggle addresses questions 1-3. from Writing Public Lives pg. 326 (pictured below).  I have also included a paragraph addressing the audience of this project which corresponds to question 4.

1-3. The link to my coggle can be found here.

4. I hope that my audience can cover the political spectrum, religious spectrum, and a wide variety of levels of scientific understanding.  My goal is to persuade the audience that acknowledging that humans can negatively impact the environment can only benefit the population of the entire planet.  I want to relay accurate credible information to my audience, but I want to also want to avoid drowning the audience in information or sarcastic bias as to avoid losing credibility.  The Pope also took this approach in his appeals to find human kindness and charity and help create a positive impact on the entire planet.  I would like to adapt this approach to convincing liberal audience why a religious voice may be beneficial, a conservative audience why addressing climate change is a charitable action, and the younger generations why this is such an important issue to speak out on.  Hopefully this project will result in the strongest reactions of these three groups; liberals, conservatives, and the new generations.  Liberals are already supportive of the environment, conservatives can find allies in the liberals and team up to make changes, and the younger generation will be the future voices in the government and are crucial to future actions.
