TPO41

The reading passage explores the issue of new regulations are unnecessary and might actually have negative consequences, and several reasons are offered in support for this argument. However, the lecturer casts doubt on it and offers several reasons to oppose it.
First of all, even though the reading passage suggest that effective environmental regulations already exist, the lecturer argues that it has a batter way to improvement. That is because that the present liner which companies are using are not good enough, which means the environmental regulations need to improve. Obviously, the lecturer's argument disproves its counterpart in the reading.
Secondly, the speaker for the reading by mentioning the recycling of coal ash. Though the article states that creating very strict rules for storing and handling coal ash might discourage the recycling of coal ash into other products, he says that it can be benefit to the public. Therefore, the lecturer concludes that recycled coal ash products are not dangerous, and may continue to produce the products.
The last reason is that new regulations would result in a significant increase in disposal and handling costs for the power companies. The lecturer convincingly points out that it may increase the cost for the power companies, but the price of electricity will not increase too much; moreover, in order to establish a solid and concrete statement, he offers a example that the companies will have extra cost which around 15 billion dollars, but the household will only pay the original price plus one percent.
In conclusion, based on the evidence presented above, it can be clearly to seen that the stances on both sides are paradoxical. Although the contents in the reading passage seem to be plausible, further scrutiny leads the lecturer to believe that the points of view are not correct.
