In this set of materials, the reading and the lecture are both discussing coal ash wherein the reading states that the US government should regulate handling and storing coal ash, but the power companies have an opposite view. Moreover, the reading provides three arguments to support the power company’s position. However, the professor explains that the arguments presented by the author are unreliable and refutes each the author's points.
First, the author of the reading claims that regulations already exist differently. Companies use a liner layer to prevent coal ash from pass through the soil. The professor refutes this point by explaining that this method is used in the new land, but what about the old land. He mentions that in the old land there are no liner layers, which they cause several damages in the drinking water.
Secondly, the reading says that concrete and bricks that are from recycling coal ash will afraid the people. However, the professor says that people don not scare from recycling materials. Furthermore, he provides an example about Mercury, a hazard item, that people don not afraid of the Mercury recycling materials. In addition to that, they have bought this material form for many years.
Finally, the reading states that new regulations will increase the power cost by increasing handling and storing coal ash. The professor opposes this point by saying that increasing the power cost will not too big. More than that, the range of the rising cost is only one percent. Therefore, every person can pay the bill for electricity.
In conclusion, the three points that made in the lecture contrast with the reading. The first, second and third in the lecture demonstrate that arguments presented from power companies are in doubt.
