PRACTICE PROMPT
Use this fictional setting to practise clear reasoning. It is not an assessment or institution paper.
The setting
A client concerned that a lower-carbon scheme will cost more.
Your task
Write addressing the cost question honestly, including where the assumption is wrong.
What a useful response would show
Not overclaiming; conceding where carbon does cost money.
Reflect afterwards
- What assumption mattered most?
- What would you check before using this on a real project?
- Could another engineer follow your recommendation?
