I’m looking for a topic to write a paper about for my environmental science class. It has to somehow affect me and I’d like to write about something controversial or interesting, and possibly put some kind of spin on it so that there isn’t an obvious solution. Our ES text book has a few ideas that everybody else will be writing about but that’s really not what I want to do. The subject can’t be too broad. Here are some examples of the type of subject I’m looking for:
Lead poisoning
Radon
Cigarette smoke
asbestos
A specific nitrate or something in fertilizers

I don’t want my paper to be like everyone else’s so any help you kind folks can lend will be great.
I think the first guy means Dihydrogen monoxide…. Anyway, the other two are too general. If I was to do either of those I’d have to zero in on BPA or say, lead in the water. That’s exactly what everyone else will be doing and not interesting enough.

Any other ideas?
