topic- Gavin Newsom’s electric vehicle mandate set for 2025 is good.
5-6 sources
all claims must be cited
it’s about a 7-minute speech
the teacher’s example outline is below, but can you please write a word-for-word speech and fill out the outline.
Main I Problem: To address the potential for another major drought, some are proposing that the state legislature mandate year-round water conservation, even as soon as next year.
A. (Discuss the very real matter of the long drought we have, with this winter’s rains, only just started to climb out of).
B. (Discuss the proposed idea of year-round water conservation as a proposed solution to alleviate the worst of future droughts).
Main II Solution: The state legislature MUST NOT adopt such a policy! (Notice you are arguing here AGAINST a policy.)
A. (Explain why year-round water conservation would be bad, or why making it mandatory would be bad. This is a value-oriented argument – the value of “bad” – supported by questions of fact.)
1. Cannot really be enforced.
a. Just as we cannot get people to stop texting while driving, no law is going ton ever be able to track and stop those who violate mandates for water conservation.
b. If it cannot be enforced in any real way, mandate is toothless and will not, therefore, do much to help the state save water.
2. And, even if it could be enforced, there is almost no way to make enforcement fair.
a. Some folks may already be conserving water, while others may be unable to for various reasons.
b. The wealthy will continue to water their lavish landscaping, easily be able to afford whatever fines they might be assessed.
B. A better solution is to encourage the use of water conservation via tax credits for water-conscious landscaping, the adoption of water-conscious agricultural practices, and whatever.
1. Rather than the stick (fines and such), the state should use the carrot of tax credits to those who can be shown to be doing their parts to save water.
Main III Counterargument/Rebuttal: So who would say no to this common-sense solution?
A. Some argue that without mandates, the state will simply not be able to guarantee the water savings needed to safeguard against a critical shortage of water when the next drought hits.
1. Could model our laws on those on the books in places like Australia, where water conservation is mandatory year-round.
B. We ought to try every means at our disposal and see what works and what does not before instituting the seemingly drastic measure of year-round mandatory water conservation.
YOUR CALL TO ACTION AT THE END OF SPEECH WOULD BE SOMETHING LIKE: Write to the California Water Resources Control Board and tell them NO to year-round water restrictions.

Consider what we learned in Module 6 about effective presentation preparation, strong presentation structure and organization, and the three modes of persuasion: ethos, pathos, and logos. Review our Module 6 readings, videos, and lessons as needed to help you brainstorm ideas for your upcoming persuasive speech.
For this discussion, you will submit two (2) fully developed persuasive speech ideas. You should spend time doing some preliminary research on both ideas to make sure either one would work well for the persuasive speech assignment.
Address all of the following for two (2) persuasive speech ideas:
1. Topic Idea: What is the topic?
2. Persuasive Argument: What argument could you make about this topic? Your argument should be clearly defined in one sentence.
3. Audience Analysis: Why should the audience care about this topic?
4. Audience Analysis: Why should your audience trust your argument on this topic?
5. Ethos: What is your personal experience with the topic idea?
6. Ethos: How are you qualified to present this information to your audience?
7. Logos: After conducting preliminary research on this topic, share three potential sources of information you could use in your presentation.
8. Title, author, date, and URL (if using a web source) for all three sources.
9. A brief one-paragraph summary of your source, including how the source supports your presentation’s persuasive argument.
10. Pathos: What are one to two potential stories you could share in your persuasive speech? These could be personal stories or stories from others.
also the quicker the better
I have some of the intructions/rubric my teacher has gave me, so if you could go off of what they say, that’d be great. I also have 3 different documents I want you to do these in for the following:
1. Persuasive Speech Notes (Research & Where the Information Came From)
2. Persuasive Speech Bibliography
3.
Persuasive Essay/Speech Outline
*If you have any questions let me know.
Construct a speaking outline for your 6-minute Persuasive Speech that includes at least three websites that you used for the research/forms of support requirements in your upcoming speech (statistic, testimony/quote, and example).
Submit your speaking outline along with your reference list in MLA format by 11:59 pm on Sunday.
The given rubric will be used to evaluate your outline and website credibility.
The 5 W’s of website credibility are discussed below in the Tips section of this assignment. If your websites do not meet these requirements you will lose points.
