Instructions
In Chapter 19, the course textbook includes information about Alberta’s oil sands and the Keystone XL pipeline (p. 515), finding and estimating fossil fuel deposits (p. 522), and impacts of the BP Gulf spill (p. 536). Select one of those three topics, and locate one peer-reviewed article in the CSU Online Library about the topic. The article that you select from the CSU Online Library should have been published no earlier than 2010.

Write a review of the article that includes the components listed below.

Describe land use impacts of the fossil fuel energy source discussed in the article.
Describe water quality impacts of the fossil fuel energy source discussed in the article.
Summarize the significant points of the article that support the pros and cons of the fossil fuel energy source being discussed.
Your article review should be at least two pages in length, not counting the title or reference pages. You may also use the textbook as a reference in addition to your chosen article. Be sure to properly cite and reference all sources used using APA format.

Resources

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
