You have read two short texts about clean energy and fossil fuels. Write an argumentative essay in which you explain whether the government should invest more in clean energy sources or continue supporting traditional fossil fuels.
First, I think the government should invest more in clean energy sources because clean energy is better for people. In Passage 2, a study was done in California on kids who lived in environments with air pollution and kids who lived in environments with clean air. The study found that kids who lived with air pollution were more likely to develop asthma. If the government invests more in clean energy, less kids would have asthma. This is why I think the government should invest more in clean energy.

Next, I think the government should invest more in clean energy sources because there are healthier ways to get energy. One healthy energy source is solar panels. They can be used to light our homes and keep us warm. Another healthy energy source is wind turbines. Wind turbines can power several homes. These kinds of energies are healthier because they come from natural sources: the sun and the wind. This is why I think the government should invest more in clean energy sources.
