Introduction to Science Writing

Who Cares What They Say

My essay is on how The Greek Tree on the SUNY Geneseo campus is related to William Cronon’s ideas in “The Trouble with Wilderness.” I wrote about how The Greek Tree in many ways agrees with William Cronon about how nature should be appreciated and admired by all. The Greek Tree is in the perfect location for everyone on the SUNY Geneseo campus to see and appreciate nature.

For every piece of writing or for everything in general there will always be people to give criticism and to put one’s work down. I think that skeptics would say that my writing does not have enough of my own ideas and does not give enough examples to back-up my most critical points in my essay. I can respond to the skeptics by seeing if I did have enough of my own ideas and that I did provide enough examples. Finally, I would say “so what” and “who cares” what the skeptics say.
