Use Evidence Suppose you live near a reef that draws thousands of scuba diving tourists every year. Your community depends on that tourism. A developer wants to build a large resort and golf course, both of which will result in excess nutrients in the coastal water. Write an open letter to the developer to argue against the plan (minimum of two paragraphs):

Open & close your letter professionally.

Provide information about who you are and your involvement with the scientific study.

Explain in scientific terms what the expected change will be to the reef ecosystem. (Use appropriate vocabulary from class notes and/or the textbook.)

Cite specific data with appropriate units from this virtual lab activity.
Reference specific graphs, and what they mean, as support for your arguments.

Choose and include specific graphs which are the best support for your arguments, particularly those which show a strong cause-and-effect pattern between nutrient levels and changes to the coral reef’s populations.

Make sure your inserted graphs are at a size and shape to clearly show the cause and effect relationship or the developer won’t see the connection between excess nutrients and your evidence!

Describe to the developer what the evidence in graphs mean and how that reflects on what will happen if the report and golf course is built.

Provide a clear rationale on how the predicted changes will impact the local tourism industry.
