the passage and the lecture are discussing a device called TED for saving endangered sea turtles
Both the author and the lecturer discuss on a device for saving sea turtles called TED. The passage claims that TED is not effective and it is more disadvantageous and provides three reasons for support. However, the lecturer finds all the ideas implausible and presents some evidence to refute each of the author's points.
First, the author argues that based on shrimpers experience turtles are trapped only rarely and using TED is so much costing the shrimpers. On the contrary, the lecturer opposes this point by highlighting the fact that it might be true that turtles are trapped rarely in the nets of each shrimpers boats, but there are 1000 of shrimpers boats on the sea and accidentally thousands of sea turtles are trapped. she announces that the population of sea turtles are already too small. Therefore, this is a significant number among sea turtles.
Second, the article posits that other alternative methods to protects sea turtles are more beneficial including limiting the time that shrimp boats are allowed to keep their nets underwater. In contrast, the professor dismisses this point by saying that time limits is a good idea but only a theoretically good idea. she states that it is impossible to impose this limits on 1000 boats on the sea and sea officers cannot monitor them all. However, TED is easier to impose and its presence can be checked on each boat that leaves port.
Finally, the passage states that TEDs are not effective for larger species of sea turtles. Conversely, the lecturer counters this idea by bringing up the fact that producing appropriate TEDs for larger turtles is not a problem and they can be easily created. Thus, when these types of TEDs are produced, inefficiency for huge species of sea turtles will not be a problem.
