Order Instructions
1. Research and find an article or legal case that deals with the liability of corporations for environmental damage that has been written or decided in the last 5 years.
2. Then produce a Point/Counterpoint argument (that is reasons for taking one position and then reasons for taking the opposite position ).These arguments might focus on , for example, the holding by the Court in the case (why you agree or disagree with it) ; Why or why not the corporation should be held liable; Why the EPA should play the primary role in enforcing environmental regulation, or Why legislation needs to be or does not need to be enacted to prevent such pollution in the future.
Note: You may find these articles by using the NVCC Library site and our embedded librarian might be of assistance as well.
3. Include in your Point /Counterpoint your view, as well as, the legal arguments for or against the position. This may also include (but you are not limited to) a discussion as to whether you feel that the EPA should or should not play the primary rule in enforcing the environmental regulation, or what other remedies would be practical and effective.
Make Sure You:
Use proper in paper and works cited references.
Use the MLA format in writing your paper
Reference the legal principles contained in Chapter 37 of your text and those that are mentioned within the article or case you choose
