Passage and lecture are both discussing whether new strict rules should be set up by government to stop burning coal. The writer believes that the new rules are unnecessary and may do harm, but the speaker argues that different strict rules should be given to stop the avoid coal ash. One among the three reasons which the writer gives is that effective environmental regulations already exist. The great example is that many companies were required to use linear-special material to prevent coal ash from leaking into the soil. However, the professor is against of this explaining. It is said that existed rules were not sufficient enough. To well explain his point, the professor gives an example that older field would be damaged by new field buildings. Because the coal ash would leak into ground water and may be harmful for drinking water, there should have new rules to address these problems. The second reason to support the reading material is that consumers’ concerns about products which related with coal ash would rise because of the strict new rules. Unfortunately, the speaker reputes the point by another example-an anecdote about mercury. It is said that mercury is a hazardous chemical. Mercury has been safely recycled for 50 years under those strict rules. As a result, the speaker believes that there will be no possible that consumers will be afraid of buying recycled coal ash-products. Increased dramatically, the costs for power companies are the last valid reason that the writer mentioned in the passage. Ten times more than the current costs, the power companies will spend the money on disposing and handling the coal ash. In the listening material, the professor refutes the writer’s point, though he admitted that what said in the article was true. This is mainly because that only 1 more percent of money those companies will pay even though the amount of the money is 15 billion.
