Assignment task: Name the basic parts of an argument (and synonymous terms): conclusion (claim), premise(s) (reason{s}), and implied statement (s) (unspoken assumption{s}). of this statement
"Nobody really believes in climate change. You can tell that by how people act. Political leaders don't pass the legislation needed to change our nation's dependence on carbon-based fuels. Cities do not require solar heating in all new construction. We keep building condos along the ocean in places that will flood as the sea levels rise. We pave over our farms to build suburbs. Instead of wearing a sweater, we keep the thermostat too high in the winter. Instead of taking off our suit jackets, we keep office buildings too cold in the summer."
