Notes

You should see that this paragraph follows almost the same model. There is one clear and simple idea in the first sentence. It relates back to the question words: while others think humans should still take some action. The rest of the paragraph explains that idea:

moral duty because it is our fault (reason why)

science can now help through genetics (second reason why)

zoos are not the only solution (extended second reason why)

Key concept – you don’t need to include all your reasons and examples

My “notes” for this essay included all this. They are my notes, so you don’t need to understand them all. What I want you to see is that I have not included everything. In an academic essay I might have. Here I have selected the ideas that were easiest to write about.

zoos (example)

breed in captivity (example extended)

preservation (how)

giant pandas (example)

medical benefits (why)

loss of habitat (why)

river dolphins (example)

biodiversity (reason)

logging and rainforests (example)

dams (example)

progress of man (why)

deforestation (how)

bamboo forest (where)

science (why)

cloning (example)

genetics (example)

moral responsibility (why)

Key concept – balance your paragraphs

There are a number of different possible essay structures. My default (normal) structure is to have 2 paragraphs that balance each other – it is surprising how often this structure works. It is good for the coherence of the essay, it also makes it easier to write – especially if you are short of “ideas”. You use the second content paragraph can reflect the ideas in the first paragraph, but from the opposite point of view.
