1. The author, Katherine Spriggs, has convinced me that this topic does matter. She has persuaded me with not only facts, as well as personal experiences and memories. Katherine Spriggs establishes the importance of her topic by going into detail about the issues, and even providing us with background knowledge. The author shows us how the world is affected today, as well as possible consequences we could face in the future.
2. Some counterarguments that Katherine Spriggs considers include the fact that "buying locally will be detrimental to the environment because small farms are not as efficient." She explains that this is a common misconception.
3. I found the fourth paragraph of this essay especially effective. The author gave a clear indication of why the topic matters to her, telling us a story from her childhood.
4. I think the visuals in Katherine Spriggs' essay do contribute to the essay, helping the reader understand the reading better and visualize what she is speaking about.
