Marine SanctuaryTopic 804: The following appeared in an environmental newsletter published in Tria Island. "The marine sanctuary on Tria Island was established to protect certain marine mammals. Its regulations ban dumping and offshore oil drilling within 20 miles of Tria, but fishing is not banned. Currently many fish populations in Tria's waters are declining, a situation blamed on pollution. In contrast, the marine sanctuary on Omni Island has regulations that ban dumping, offshore oil drilling, and fishing within 10 miles of Omni and Omni reports no significant decline in its fish populations. Clearly, the decline in fish populations in Tria's waters is the result of overfishing, not pollution. Therefore, the best way to restore Tria's fish populations and to protect all of Tria's marine wildlife is to abandon our regulations and adopt those of Omni. " Discuss how well reasoned you find this argument. | Score & Analysis The environmental newsletter claims that to abandon Tria's regulations and adopt those of Omni is the best way to restore Tria's fish populations and to protect all Tria's marine wildlife by the contrast between Tria and Omni Island. However, the recommendation is hasty and may cover other possible method to protect marine wildlife in Tria's marine sanctuary. First of all, the report about no significant decline in Omni's fish populations may not credible. It is entirely possible that its fish populations have decreased but Omni didn't report the decline for the reason that it does not want to undermine its good reputation and then tell a lie. Even if there is no significant decline in its fish populations, it may not result from banning fishing. Perhaps, it is caused by the fact that the authority in Omni insists to carry out the regulations of banning dumping and offshore oil drilling so that the marine sanctuary on Omni Island is not polluted and thus the fish populations does not decline. Secondly, the argument is weakened for the fact that it does not take account of the distinctions between Tria and Omni. Granted that no significant decline in Omni's fish populations is due to banning fishing, the regulations of Omni may not adapt to Tria. The reason for the decline in Tria's fish populations may be that someone does not obey the current regulations and continue to dump or drill offshore oil. Meanwhile, the authority in Tria does not discipline these actions so that many fish die from the pollution. Or perhaps, the food of the fish in marine sanctuary on Tria Island decreases for some reasons, which also can result in the decline in fish populations. In short, the author does not exclude the potential factors lead to the decline so the reasoning is reliable. Finally, even if Omni's regulations can serve to prevent from the decline in Tria's fish populations, they are may not the best way. Maybe there are other methods such as In sum, it is necessary to investigate carefully to identify the reason for the decline in Tria's fish populations before appropriate conclusions are reached and then to find out the best way to protect rather than adopt the Omni's regulations solely. - written by cmq816 | Computer score: 4 What to do: |
