In the process of writing my Junior Theme, I have thoroughly enjoyed researching electric cars. I love to find out new information and to understand just what happened when, and all the chemsitry of why each battery works even better than the previous. However, that is not the point of this. While I love to gather information, it will be nothing unless I can express what I learned in a way my audience will understand. Frequently I have a hard time coming up with the right words to explain everything that is in my head, which is why I see Junior Theme as so daunting. But its time to bite the proverbial bullet and just do it. So here is a sample intro I'm working on. Please comment and tell me what you think.
The year is 2100. What will it look like? Will the world be a green utopia with flying cars and happy people, or will we languish on a destroyed planet filled with our own waste? Largely, the answer to that question lies with our choices of energy. Out of all the energy that humans use, about 30 percent of that energy is used for transportation, so it is imperative that transportation pollutes the least amount possible. (eia) One alternative to gasoline is an electric car that runs off of battery power. While there are many benefits and advocates of using this type of transportation, it has been stopped from having clear successes every time it was introduced to the market. Even today, when citizens of nearly every country agree that global warming is a serious problem, electric cars were still denied access to the roads. The electric car didn't succeed in the United States because of unrealistic consumer expectations, lack of infrastructure, shortsighted companies, and poor government decisions.
Any thoughts? Maybe a clear plastic binder will help... ?
