This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: 2nd project, We must counter-act the threat of risks therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) We must counter-act the possible risks of NSPs, NSPs are very useful therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) NSPs will get a lot of use, We don't know how NSPs will affect us or the environment therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) NSPs are a possible danger, If there are regulations in place, there will be a decrease in the amount of growth of science therefore (ArgScheme: modus tollens) Regulations are proposed for nanotechnology, Private insurance must be used to insure us against the risks of NSPs Supports The regulation of Nanotechnology, We must continue to study NSPs in order to be safe therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) More money is needed to study the potential risks of NSPs, NSPs pose the threat of a lot of danger therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) We must continue to study NSPs in order to be safe, Possible widespread danger is the necessary and sufficient condition for the threat of a lot of danger therefore (ArgScheme: equivalence) NSPs will get a lot of use, Useful things get a lot of use therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) NSPs will get a lot of use, The FDA task force on NSPs needs the power to counter-act risks Supports The regulation of Nanotechnology, Possible widespread danger is the necessary and sufficient condition for the threat of a lot of danger therefore (ArgScheme: equivalence) NSPs pose the threat of a lot of danger, If there are regulations in place, there will be a decrease in the amount of growth of science therefore (ArgScheme: modus tollens) If regulations are imposed, the growth of nano technology will decrease, If the growth of technology causes harm, then safety of the general public is more important than the growht of technology therefore (ArgScheme: modus tollens) growth of technolgy can cause harm, If the growth of technology causes harm, then safety of the general public is more important than the growht of technology therefore (ArgScheme: modus tollens) The safety of the general public is more important than the growth of technology, We must counter-act the possible risks of NSPs therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) Private insurance must be used to insure us against the risks of NSPs, If we don't know how things will affect others they may be dangerous therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) NSPs are a possible danger, Nano sized particles (NSPs) are extremely small therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) We don't know how NSPs will affect us or the environment, We don't know how extremely small things, such as NSPs, will affect us or the environment therefore (ArgScheme: modus ponens) We don't know how NSPs will affect us or the environment, The safety of the general public is more important than the growth of technology Supports We must study dangerous things in order to be safe., More money is needed to study the potential risks of NSPs Supports The regulation of Nanotechnology
