One of the ways Carson makes her case in Silent Spring is by presenting a negative vision of the future that gives the reader an idea of what might happen if the problem is not addressed. Choose one of the problems on the board and ask pairs to generate a list of possible future consequences that could result if the issue is not addressed. For instance, if students suggest that industrial pollution is one of the problems, they might list consequences like polluted water supplies, increases in asthma rates, and respiratory illnesses as possible consequences. Lead a class discussion about the chosen issue.

Ask students to choose a different issue to tackle as a pair. The first step is to make a list of potential consequences. As groups finish their lists, distribute the computers or art supplies. If you use computers in your class, students should create a narrated slide show with images representing the consequences of failing to address the issue.

Another option is for students to build a short narrated movie trailer with music appropriate to the mood and urgency of the issue. If you opt for the art supplies, have the pairs create a collage using magazines. The collage should present the issue using cut out words, images of the consequences, and drawings. Both options should include time to present to the class upon completion.
