Writing Style
I can write in any style. Consider this excerpt of a properly straightforward piece which appeared in the New York Times:
“The earth’s soil naturally contributes ten times more carbon dioxide to the atmosphere than all of humankind’s activity — or, 60 billion tons of carbon per year. This odorless gas comes from the myriad of creatures which inhabit the soil—microbes, pill bugs, worms, fungi, and algae — as they breathe, “pass gas,” and expire. Until recently, the increase in carbon dioxide gas produced by small-scale tillage was compensated for by the natural reabsorbtion of plants. Now, according to Professor of Biology Tyler Volk at New York University, tillage is a large contributor to the surplus of carbon dioxide. When soil is stripped of its living cover to grow crops, up to one-fourth of its stored carbon is lost as carbon dioxide and most of this squandered carbon is never replaced by agriculture. The warming of the bare soil by sunlight also speeds up the activity and death of the soil microorganisms, thus increasing the outgassing of carbon dioxide”

For more fun, but just as much substance, consider the beginning of this article for the late lamented Garbage Magazine:
“Remember composting? Remember back when everybody cooked their veggies in regular pots with those metal-petaled steamers that always lost a "petal" or two? Remember when everyone boasted about their ordeal in the line at the gas station, not at the auto teller? Remember those innocent days when Arlo was trying to take some stuff to the dump, not the "sanitary landfill"— and before we found out the dump's seepage was poisoning the town's water supply? Remember thinking that compost would transform the world, or at least fertilize the garden that would grow all the vegetables we'd ever need? Perhaps not. Compost didn't even rate a background mention in that "thirty-something" nostalgia flick The Big Chill.
