Here's my introduction to my essay:
I love the automobile inside and out. I have had a passion for cars for as long as I can remember. There’s something about a car that fascinates me, something that draws my attention. Recently, I have become more attached to the automotive industry more than I have ever been and I find myself reading news articles about the goings on or conducting research about issues or problems that occur within the industry. After awhile, I wanted to find problems that I could possibly solve or desired to solve in the future when I graduated with a mechanical engineering degree from Wayne State and possibly enter the car industry. The problem that I came to my mind is how to make the cars and trucks that the automotive industry produces more environmentally friendly than they already are. How can we make production of vehicles cleaner to the earth? Is it possible to use materials that are biodegradable to the planet we call home? Such questions I ask because I don’t have a clear understanding about ways to preserve the environment. Preserving the globe is extremely important because since there are a large number of people on the earth, we need to preserve it for future generations. I want to know more than just making cars fuel efficient, light weight, and changing the ways that people drive on the roads. Of course, these are good solutions to reduce pollution, but I want to know more, I want a deeper understanding. This I-Search essay will explore whether or not the answers I discover will give me that deep understanding that I want.
