The following appeared in a letter to the editor of a local newspaper in Masontown: "If we want to save money on municipal garbage disposal fees, we need to encourage our residents to recycle more. Late last year, our neighboring town, Hayesworth, passed a law requiring that all households recycle paper and glass, or pay a fine. Since that time, Hayesworth has seen its garbage disposal costs significantly decrease. If we implemented an advertising campaign encouraging our residents to recycle, Masontown would also save money on disposal of its waste"
The argument is made by the author in order to solve the problem of increased municipal garbage disposal fees.The author suggests to he editor of a local newspaper in Masontown. He suggests that for saving money in garbage disposal fees; they must encourage for recyling. Citing the new law of hayesworth ,author tries to give a solution. At the end he also suggests that they should launch a campaign relevant to that so as to save disposal fees.However,when more light is shed on the argument several grave fallacies have been seen in assumptions the author has made with false analogy. More apt information is needed to draw the conclusion which the author has made.
First,author talks about encouragement of recycling products but does not mention how the process of recycling will be done. There is no mention of a detailed solution.Second;author cites an example of Hayesworth but there has been no mention of upto what level the garbage disposal fees were reduced and its various circumstances. A particular model cannot necessarily be implemented at other venue as the contingencies may be different at different levels which should have been mentioned by the author.
Advertising campaign would not necessarily be much effective because the campaigns and public awareness programs does not bound any one to take any specific action relevant to the issue. Advertisement campaign is not a concrete solution to the problem mentioned and there is no guarantee for the reduction of garbage disposal fees.Hence author should come up with some comprehensive plan that would increase the chances of reduction in garbage disposal fees.The author should mention the level of involvement of the municipal corporation and some responsibility of corporation of providing infrastructure to recycle the products.If people are not habituated with the recycling emerging trend people of the town will have to pay fine in accordance with the plan of hayeswoth in addition to the garbage disposal fees which will prove more destructive and worsen the sitiuation.
Thus in a nutshell,the author needs to come up with a more comprehensive and effective plan not just a advertisement campaign.The conclusion drawn by author is unwarranted and arguments given to prove it are not cogent.It lacks more precise data as well as has many logical flaws.
