What is the main focus of "The Damnation of a Canyon"?

Which of the following statements from "The Damnation of a Canyon" demonstrates the author's use of a slippery slope fallacy?A.The defenders of the dam argue that the recreational benefits available on the surface of the reservoir outweigh the loss of Indian ruins, historical sites, wildlife and wilderness adventure. Relying on the familiar quantitative logic of business and bureaucracy, they assert that whereas only a few thousand citizens ever ventured down the river through Glen Canyon, now millions can or will enjoy the motorized boating and hatchery fishing available on the reservoir.B.Because the annual spring floods are now a thing of the past, the shores are becoming overgrown with brush, the rapids are getting worse where the river no longer has enough force to carry away the boulders washed down from the lateral canyons, and the beaches are disappearing, losing sand that is not replaced.C.Or as ex–Commissioner Floyd Dominy of the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation pointed out poetically in his handsomely engraved and illustrated brochure Lake Powell: Jewel of the Colorado (produced by the U.S. Government Printing Office at our expense): 'There's something about a lake which brings us a little closer to God.'D.Eventually, as is already sometimes the case at Lake Mead, the stagnant waters will become too foul even for swimming. The trouble is that while some boats have what are called "self–contained" heads, the majority do not; most sewage is disposed of by simply pumping it into the water. It will take a while, but long before it becomes a solid mass of mud Lake Powell ("Jewel of the Colorado") will enjoy a passing fame as the biggest sewage lagoon in the American Southwest.SUBMITarrow_backPREVIOUS
