The real issue is that the use of nuclear power and
nuclear weapons is forcing humankind, and indeed the
whole ecosystem, to participate in a particularly cruel and
totally uncontrolled experiment. Given the scientific
evidence that there is no safe dose of radiation, this is an
experiment that has already gone awry
The real question is whether we, as a human race, can
afford in good conscience to risk annihilation with our
continued reliance on nuclear technology. Can we
continue to despoil our environment with long-lived
radioactive materials that are scattered to the wind and
embedded in our precious soil, randomly exposing large
populations, and foisting health impacts on unsuspecting
future generations who have no choice in this matter?
We may choose to do so. But if we do, I am quite sure
that our children and grandchildren will roundly
condemn us for our lack of foresight and our selfishness.
As they struggle to deal with a noiconon environment
appeal to emotion because the passage describes
the potential impact on children
bandwagon because the author states that
everyone agrees on this issue
ad hominem because the author questions the
honesty of scientists
false dilemma because it states that we must end
the use of nuclear energy or die
appeal to emotion because it describes possible
catastrophe

explanation:

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
