Going "Green" Structure and Style.

In the essay titled Going "Green," the author does give a clearly stated thesis which includes examples of what the author will be arguing. The author also does well on constructing his sentences, for they are clear and concise and are always complete and never leaves the reader hanging.The author does provide all the necessary background and definitions and includes examples of each. He provides a background of the green movement and includes the time period in which "Environmentalism" became a popular topic and even provides today's definition of the subject. While the author gives us definitions, he also applies different definitions from the college stand point which is important because the main topic is going "green" around college campuses. The author uses many transitional phrases such as "For example," "In fact," and "although" that help to guide the reader along smoothly. The author does uses opposing arguments and also refutes them properly. The paper uses great wording through out without being too "vague" or "wordy". The concluding statement could be a lot stronger.
