Short Writing Assignment 3
Select two quotations you think make a connection, one from each reading.
Lynch: “We should also resist the temptation to single out groups of people as responsible for climate change. Instead, we should forgive those we think are guilty of environmental harm in order to maximize our ability to work together for a better world. Now is not the time for blame, Norlock says, but for new forms of eco citizenship.”
Gunther: “Complicit people and institutions must be called out and encouraged to change. And
the fossil-fuel industry must be fought, and the governments that support the fossil-fuel economy must be replaced. But none of us will be effective in this if we think of climate change as something we are doing.”
Identify the phrases in each quotation that you think connect to each other
Both of these phrases address the underlying crux of the issue,which hinges on the overall stance of larger organizations and figures on the climate change issue. They both, at least in the
aforementioned examples speak of larger structures and issues, the dismantling of which, they deem as paramount to a solution for the global issue of climate change
Write a sentence in which you explain the connection using each of those phrases.
They both lean into the larger aspect of the issue, placing blame on a so-called deep state and people of higher caliber and store as the crux of the matter.
Expand on this sentence to create your analysis of these quotations. 5-7 sentences. While the original essays differ greatly in overall tone and messaging, the essays do share some interesting parallels. Both essays rely heavily on societal structure as well as the classical

appeal of ethos to put their points forward. They both also heavily rely on statistics and by extension logos, to further cement their ideas and views on a very complex matter. In the above quotes the common points lie clear for all to see. Both deal extensively with the purported view of the common man, and by extension the reader. While they may defer in critical points in this regard, they unite to promote the overall message of self actualization and
responsibility of organizations, rather than the so deemed, average worker, of no special class or standing. The everyman so to speak.This is evidenced by the leverage of anti establishment ideas and rhetoric to mobilize drive and elicit emotion in a reader.
Select two quotations you think make a connection, one from each reading.
Lynch: “Think of the way that dreams of success and wealth function in American society. Low-paid employees in precarious positions are told that determination and hard work will result in greater opportunities and economic security. In actuality, class mobility is very limited. ”
Gunther: “ This is a battle against the forces of destruction to save something of this achingly beautiful, utterly miraculous world for your children. The fossil-fuel industry and the governments that support it are literally colluding to stop you from creating a world that runs on safe energy.”
Identify the phrases in each quotation that you think connect to each other
While seeming initially divergent, such phrases as colluding and class mobility tie very deeply into each other. Both selections further build on the concept of affluence breeding corruption and attempt to elicit an emotional response, from the often decrepit citizens of these nations.
Write a sentence in which you explain the connection using each of those phrases.
Each phrase builds on the other, acting as a cry for justice and a denouncement of the nefarious
activities of the people in power, i.e. the so-called upper crust and government workers.

These sentences, each coming from a wholly separate essay, each in a different context, seem to become as one. Herein both authors unite in their denouncement of privilege and the admonishment of the often wasteful and destructive activities of certain people, typically of great stature. In this denouncement, both appear to attempt to appeal to a potential reader's emotions, provided they are in the middle class or below. In condemning the deeds of a few, and sheltering away any blame from the many, they very clearly and methodically align themselves with the vast majority of individuals, rather than the elite, as so many publications and institutions do. Thus, they stand out and enhance their bond with a reader, appealing to the universal hierarchical struggles, and elitist resentment, prevalent in the minds of many people.
Select two quotations you think make a connection, one from each reading.
Lynch: “As the Guardian reports, a recent study shows that 100 companies are responsible for 71 percent of the greenhouse-gas emissions since 1998.”
Gunther: “The IPCC stated in no uncertain terms that climate change will threaten the lives of hundreds of millions of people in the next decades unless greenhouse-gas emissions halve in 10 years and cease entirely in 30”
Identify the phrases in each quotation that you think connect to each other
Lynch's phrase “100 companies are responsible for 71%” really ties into Gunther's anti elitist view of the large scale issue plaguing both. Similarly, Gunthers analysis plays into Lynch's field of view, taking a somewhat dour and nihilistic tone on the issue, and elaborating on its severity and the imminent danger it poses to everyday life.

These phrases connect well, in that each works with the other to again, develop a common ground between the vastly differing and unique writers and styles. Each quote emphasizes a point made in the other, serving as a metaphorical bridge between the two. Each also establishes themselves and leverages the credibility of outside sources to further develop their ideas. They also appeal very much to ethos, presenting a previously trusted institution or figure, and utilizing that established goodwill to its own benefit. Both also reference data and analytics to further solidify their message, and very much shock the reader with sheer numbers.
