It needs to be an argumentative research paper. Show why oil companies shouldnt be drilling for oil in Alaska becuase of the wildlife and the natural world. Talk about the other places to drill and research other facts about the subject and show why that is the better decision. Bring up the opposing view points and show why they are wrong or why the idea would not work. Needs to include in-text citations. The thesis statement needs to be a strong, intelligent assertion about the topic, not a question or fact. Try to get a variety of sources (data bases, websites, books, etc.)
