C. to respond to the counterclaim that veganism is bad for the environment <3

ICE Princess25 [194]3 years ago
3 0

Based on the given excerpt, the most logical answer would be C. "To respond to the counterclaim that veganism is bad for the environment."

The information cited clearly shows that the writer is against the consumption of meat. Choices A and D are more like personal attacks on those of the opposing side of the issue, which is inappropriate during an argumentative essay. Choice B is also invalid since the statistics provided don't mention anything related to an individual's personal health.

1. Looking Down Constantly at the Laptop Screen

Poor laptop posture

What most people do when using a laptop is to simply place it on their desk (or God forbid on their laps). This might be okay for a short while, but any time longer, and your neck and shoulders will start to feel it.

According to studies, even a 15° tilt of the neck to look down at the laptop screen doubles the amount of force exerted on our necks to hold up the head. If you place your laptop on your lap, that force can be 3 times as great compared to a straight neck.

Dr. Kenneth Hansraj, in his research found that, even though the human head only weighs 10 to 12 lbs on average, the weight drastically increases as the head tilts forward. At a 15° angle, the weight jumps to 27 lbs, 40 lbs at 30°, 49 lbs at 45°, and 60 lbs at 60°.

Hence, though the motion of looking down might seem harmless, doing it for long periods of time can lead to neck pain, upper back muscle spasms, and even damage the vertebrae.

Solution: Use a laptop stand to elevate the laptop screen to eye level.

Laptop stand ergonomics

The solution is simple,- use a laptop stand or even any old cardboard

How do you assemble a graduation announcement? I just got my graduation announcements, invitations, and thank you cards today in
In-s [12.5K]

The invitations are for everyone (mostly relatives and close friends) that will be able to join you in your graduation and will have reserved seats during the ceremony itself. On the other, the announcements are given to those who require more time to prepare for your graduation – they may be the ones living far away from you and/or those whom you see rarely because of their tight schedule.

The larger envelopes are used to contain your smaller envelopes. The larger ones are the ones used for mailing purposes and for formality. The smaller envelopes are the ones that hold your announcement and other important details for your graduation, they usually are more intimately labelled “For Dad”, “Nana”, etc. Your seal should be placed in the smaller envelope. Moreover, your clear sheets can be cut so they will fit your invitation. You can scribble on them or you may use them as decorative purposes. Just make sure that all the necessary details are put in the clear sheets if ever you plan to write on them. 

Lastly, you should send your “Thank You” notes to those who attended and congratulated you on your event. Priority should be given to those who attended and then to those who exerted effort for your special day, respectively.
