Title: Responsibility of Lead Contamination for Safety Reasons  
This paragraph will often include the following information:
Thus introduction paragraph will include me persuading you on the 3 major points of the responsibility of lead contamination. Safety, Environmental pollution with lead and also money problems. You’re probably wondering how this is going to persuade you but in the end you will see why this is so important. You will also see why I am persuading you on this topic and why you should do the same and have a responsibility when you go out to shoot anything. 
I.   Contamination Safety 
A.  Stated in “Outdoor gun ranges under fire for safety said by Marohn, K. (2010) Marcus Carter is making higher beams said at the gun clubs. 
B.  Stated by King, D. (2015) lead exposure can cause multiple serious health hazards that have life-long consequences and it can be easily preventable. 
C.   Stated again by King, D. (2015) says it can be preventable by wearing protective equipment such as clothing and and respirators as well as properly cleaning lead and dust and particles can limit worker exposure and it prevent them from transporting lead contamination home and anywhere else. 
   1. Cleaning up after yourself can indicate you not getting lead over yourself and in areas you don’t want it to be. 
II.   Environmental Pollution with lead 
A.   The waste that led creates in our soil is very detrimental to our environment as stated by Ramesh, . A., Sivapullaiah, P., Kantha, L. H., & B.S. Prakesh, N. (2013)
B.    This is a huge concern across the world and is affected by a variety of contaminants. 
C.     Just leaving lead waste it can be leaded to contamination in soil and water in the environment. 
    1. In order to get this off the “huge concern” list in the world, we need to be even more concerned what it is affecting and what it can be hurting to this environment. 
III.  Money Problems 
A.  Not cleaning up lead contamination in the soil and lead up to major money problems
B.    The Old Regina Gun Range has so much lead contamination that they are on a $1-million cleanup plan approved by the provincial government, the contaminated soil will be removed and stored underneath the church parking lot. (CBCNEWS)
C.    Deeson, M. (2015). St. Pertersburg, Flordia, a gun club is spending lots of money to protect lead contamination by building a barrier. 
   1. $25 billion to remove 496 tons of lead from the gun club park
   2. $2 million to clean up and get a barrier 
 In conclusion I was persuading you to, when you go to gun clubs, clean up after yourself. It keeps you from getting lead on you. If you have a gun club near you with this kind of problem, volunteer to help to protect other areas near by so they don’t have a huge amount of money problems on trying to fix the lead contamination. Unless you and or your gun club wants to deal with lots of money, after you get done shooting, clean up the lead so it doesn’t dissolve into the pollution, soil, and or water. Like I said in my second point on environment pollution with lead, it is very detrimental to our environment and it’s a huge concern we have. So when dealing with lead, clean it up so you’re not hurting the environment by such a little thing that later, will become a tremendous thing.
