Question

If you are developing an argument in favor of a ban on pesticides that harm bees, which combination of resources would be most helpful in supporting your position?
A study showing a correlation between bee hive health and the amount of pesticide applied in nearby fields
A study showing new pesticide options for specific crops by region and by production costs
A study showing a connection between the number of hives and production levels of nearby crops
A study showing the long history of human and natural factors that affect bee hive health and impact crop production

Answer 1

In order to develop an argument in favor of a ban on pesticides that harm bees, the combination of resources that would be most helpful in supporting my  position is that study showing a correlation between bee hive health and the amount of pesticide applied in nearby fields, as it is the option that allows me to demonstrate the hazard of the pesticide and so the necessity of a ban.
