In the article “Porous Asphalt is King of the Road”, Pave Green (n.d.) believes that porous asphalt is “King of the Road”, as it improves safety, reduces erosion, and mitigates water pollution while giving back to the earth making it “road royalty”. Porous asphalt roads prove to be a sustainable method in reducing pollution due to its natural filtration ability. One of the best applications is found in stormwater management. It can be used on superhighways where it enhances the safety of the road users, especially during winter climates. There is a reduction in the need for deicing and anti-icing practices that contain harmful agents that can be detrimental to the environment and quality of water. It is significantly more cost-effective and environmentally friendly as compared to its conventional counterpart.

Hi Valencia,
ReplyDeleteI think that maybe for your last sentence, "It is significantly ....", maybe you can restated the main subject of your summary instead of just putting "It is" as I feel that there are many main subject that you are talking about in your summary before the last sentence which may make it a little confusing while reading it.
The second sentence that I think you can improve on is your first sentence. I think it is a little long maybe you can spilt it into two sentences to make it more clear on what you are stating.
Overall, I think your summary is great and understandable.
Hi Yume,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your feedback! I will review and edit accordingly.
Sincerely,
Valencia
