Impact
Space?
MLA
FORMAT
Purpose:
To
gather
primary
source
information
To
practice
persuasive
writing
To
consider
and
communicate
an
understanding
of
how
the
organization
of
space
affects
our
understanding
of
the
world
To
consider
and
communicate
the
socioeconomics
and
politics
of
space
Background:
This
project
asks
that
you
examine
how
space
is
used
in
relation
to
waste.
You
will
first
examine
your
own
trash
habits,
and
then
research
an
idea
that
you
have
encountered
in
your
readings
from
Garbology
and
other
course
texts.
You
will
then
write
a
paper
that
describes
and
explains
the
connection
you
have
discovered
between
waste
and
space.
We
are
interested
in
how
spaces
shape
our
conception
of
the
world,
the
self,
and
others,
as
they
relate
to
the
issues
surrounding
trash,
and
how
the
use
of
spaces
and
places
conveys
our
values,
beliefs,
and
attitudes
about
these
spaces
and
the
beings
that
inhabit
them.
You
should
also
try
to
keep
an
open
mind
as
you
explore
and
research
your
topic—you
may
be
surprised
at
what
you
discover.

Writing
Task:
Compose
an
essay
that
argues
for
a
particular
point
of
view
about
waste
and
space.
To
persuade
your
reader,
present
sensory
images
to
convey
the
experience
of
that
space/place.
You
might
consider
visiting
a
space
or
place
where
trash
is
handled,
used,
or
processed,
comparing
two
spaces
or
places,
or
examining
how
a
space
has
changed
over
time
in
relation
to
trash
(for
example,
in
Chap.
2
of
Garbology,
Humes
gives
vivid
descriptions
of
where
and
how
trash
was
handled
in
late
19th
Century
New
York
City).
Your
essay
might
be
evaluative;
that
is,
discuss
whether
one
space
is
better
in
some
way
or
for
some
purpose
than
another.
You
might
describe
how
a
particular
space
or
place

problems
related
to
a
