2.3 Writer's Workshop: Persuasive Argument
Revision is where your writing is taken to the next step.
Your teacher has given you feedback on one or more items to revise in your writing.
Return to the draft of your essay to revise based on those comments and any other revisions you might want to make. This is an important part of the writing process and you will be marked on whether or not you were able to make the necessary revisions.

Revised:Time and time again, science has shown that arctic drilling is dangerous. It is not worth the risks environmentally or economically."
