1. The following appeared in a letter to the editor of a journal on environmental issues.

But such disasters can be prevented if consumers simply refuse to purchase products that are made with CCC's copper unless the company abandons its mining plans."
Write a response in which you examine the stated and/or unstated assumptions of the argument. Be sure to explain how the argument depends on these assumptions and what the implications are for the argument if the assumptions prove unwarranted.

This letter and its rearing assumptions are shaky and skeptical and require further data to verify the validity of this letter and the effectiveness of its advice. In what follows, I would list the most doubtful surmise hold by the author in this letter.
