Reiterate your stand and points

When you edit your post, do so after my comments and leave them highlighted and bolded.]]> 2020-03-24 00:07:33 UTC https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/471876775 Aloy https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/471914660 As many disagree with online food delivery as drivers will spill drinks, deliver cold food to you (do not use short form, spell the full word) ✔ and deliver late   (This is rather confusing - is this agreeing with or opposing your stand? Please rephrase.✔) Although it is very convenient, there are also small things that delivery drivers do that makes it have a terrible view of having to order online food. Therefore, many people would tend to go to restaurants and eat as you get service and food cooked on the spot ready for you to eat. Although these are the small things delivery drivers do but delivering late its not their fault as restaurants do take their time to make the food, and the restaurant could have many customers to serve then move on to delivery food. Going to a restaurant may not have perfect experience and service there are ups and downs. Traveling is also a very troublesome thing to do, going to a restaurant you have to spend money and time to your destination but, ordering food online you just need to stay home and wait for your food to arrive.

In conclusion, both restaurants and online delivery has its ups and downs. But i personally would prefer eating by ordering food delivery as it is convenient and i have very less bad experiences from online food delivery.
(This is more like a conclusion to a DISCURSIVE writing. This is an ARGUMENTATIVE writing where you have to take a clear stand - online food delivery or dining at restaurants)

(Please check through your sentence structures as they sometimes confuse and mar the clarity of the ideas that you are trying to convey,)]]> 2020-03-24 01:12:09 UTC https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/471914660 Finian https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/471915629 However most people reject the positives of online delivery apps and state that the negatives heavily outweigh the positives of online delivery.one of these disadvantages is the largely discussed plastic pollution and hence leading to climate change.But what is the relationship between online delivery and plastic pollution?when deliveries are made there is always some form of plastic present in the delivery bag be it plastic cutlery, plastic bags,plastic boxes.when most people are done with this packaging,despite having a recycling bin in almost every household people dump it in the normal bins which in turn would most probably be dumped in the ocean polluting the seas and killing maritime animals.Or dumped in a junkyard exposed to infrared radiation, the reason this is a problem is because when plastic is exposed to heat in any form it will cause the release of greenhouse gases ,therefore increasing greenhouse gas emissions and hence leading to global climate change.. This was for example seen in in the extremely heavy rise in greenhouse emission in relation to popularity of online delivery apps spiking.However people who are complaining about this factor completely disregard the fact it is totally possible to request for no plastic packaging and use your own reusable cutlery at home which would cause no harm to the environment whatsoever. (You have gone off tangent and rattled too much on global climate change. Main focus should be on online food delivery and plastic waste. No need to go into so much details.) however if you are in need of the cutlery you can still use it without causing harm plastic bags and plastic cutlery are reusable and can be used for other purposes if you are ever in need of a plastic bag or plastic cutlery.such materials need not go to waste and can be reused ,I fo example continue to reuse the plastic cutlery provided by online delivery and see no harm in reusing them again.
In conclusion, there are different people with different perspectives and the different perspectives sounds out of their own points.
(Conclusion?)]]> 2020-03-24 01:13:46 UTC https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/471915629 Sela https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/471915844 (add in the point about how opponents may contend that online food delivery services result in spike in the use of plastic wares and is, therefore, not environmentally friendly.) By eating at the comfort at your own home, you can do whatever you want, eat however you like. (this part does not address your point about the environmental issue) Though food delivery contributes a lot to the climate change because of the carbon dioxide left from burning these plastics and I too agree that food delivery uses high amount of plastics and is bad for the earth, but you can always request for no plastic cutleries and use your own cutleries at home that are reusable.  

Food delivery is supposed to make it convenient for and you can choose your own food restaurants be it near or far without going to that particular area. With just a few clicks, you’re settled with your meal and can prepare while waiting for your food to be delivered, whereas if you traveled to the place to eat your meal, it’ll just be wasted time when you can do other things. If you don’t have much time, you might not even eat what you want to eat and have to settle on food that are nearest to you. Food delivery can let you enjoy any food you want and crave. They also offers food vouchers sometimes, so you can not only save time but also save money while enjoying the food of your choice. ]]> 2020-03-24 01:14:10 UTC https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/471915844 Xavier 筷子 https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/473813741 Base on many reports on food delivery services , most customers are satisfied with the food available for orders , there are a variety of different restaurants that can be delivered right at your door . However punctuality of food delivery might not be excellent ,because many food delivery man might not be able to reach on time due to traffic congestion and the path that the delivery man take might be crowded with pedestrians which makes it challenging to make it on time , customers are not satisfied by the speed and time of delivery as promised by the customer service .

(Conclusion?)
Hence , food delivery is not fast enough and it might be expensive due to the excess delivery charges and surcharges applied when ordering delivery . Food delivery might not be a very good way of getting food , getting to your nearest restaurant or food center will save you some money instead of ordering delivery]]> 2020-03-25 02:34:33 UTC https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/473813741 Char & Wenliang https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/473816807 On the other hand, food delivery might be bring in a huge convenience to consumers but there are also disadvantages that leads to the negative sides of food delivery. Food delivery might be convenient but food ordered may take a longer time to deliver due to certain circumstances such as bad weather or bulk orders, there are chances that the food might not be as fresh as food served in a restaurant. One of the example is when consumers order food online such as sushi or fresh-cut salad, it would not be as "fresh" as it is due to the period of time delivered. 👍When compared to getting served in a restaurant, the food is prepared and instantly served while food delivery have to go through many processes before delivering to the consumers and that may affect the quality and freshness of the food.
In summary,  food delivery may have some negative aspects to it but overall, food delivery brings in convenience and compared to eating at a restaurant, 
(This is a good CA, what about your rebuttal? How would you rebutt/ argue against this to say that online food delivery is still better and in what way?)

(Conclusion?)]]> 2020-03-25 02:39:47 UTC https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/473816807 Dalton https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/473817214 However as good as it sounds. People ,especially the older generations think that food delivery not good and dining at restaurants is better.these people say that it is not good as this service do not exist in their time and also they think that it is too expensive and always assume untrue things like the deliveryman are ex-convicts and that their dangerous or think that the delivery man would do something disgusting to the food.there are many examples of this all over the media.one such incident happened in 2017 when a child said that he wants to be a food delivery man in the future because he saw he delivery man .but the mother replied to the child saying that these people are ex -convicts in front of the delivery man. (Are you sure? Where did you get such notion from? Source? Credible? This is not an objective reason. Please recraft using a different point.)
Therefore people still have negative mindset about food delivery services

(Conclusion?)]]> 2020-03-25 02:40:39 UTC https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/473817214 Jingxuan https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/473819945 However not everyone agree that food delivery have any positive as they might think that online food delivery services make people more lazy and it also increases the usage of plastic. For example, people who don't use online delivery services think that others use it because they are lazy to go out to eat and they think that the plastics that is use is too excessive. However, the people used online food delivery is not only because they are lazy but is that some of them are too busy and they have no time go out and buy food and the food delivery services make their life more convenient as they can order food and it will be deliver to their home. Most people think that the usage of plastic is too excessive and this will increase our carbon footprint but restaurant use more plastic to package the food to ensure that there is a low chance of spill the food and we can also request not to have any plastics and this will lesser our carbon footprint.

Therefore, online food delivery service and dining at a restaurant have it pros and cons, but I feel that online food delivery service is more beneficial to us. As food delivery service make more convenient as we don't need to go out to buy food.

Food delivery is much more expensive and the food ordered will take a longer time to reach consumers, by the time the food delivered might just not be as fresh as food served in a restaurant. Hence there are also disadvantage sides of food delivery which leads to the negative side of food delivery. I prefer online food delivery because it is very convenient for both me and my family and we get to save extra time too.
In conclusion, online food is very convenient as one does not need to travel from place to place to settle their meals and get the comfort of eating at their own homes. Rebuttal? - why then do you still prefer online food delivery over dining at restaurants?)

But my stand is that dining at the restaurant is better as you get to be outside interact with the people and you get to eat with the people you love. Thus dining out is better. Can ask the people to clean table for you.

Therefore , dining at the restaurant is better and very efficient.

Plastic packaging is not recyclable and it is harmful to the environment. Just 4% of Singapore’s plastic waste was recycled last year and a study shows that Singapore uses about 1.76 billion plastic items each year. This implies that we are contributing to plastic wastage in Singapore when we deliver food and throw away the plastic packaging.

Sometimes, food delivery can also be more expensive compared to going to a restaurant because of the delivery charges that would be added on to the price of the food. For example, the delivery charges at Mcdelivery Singapore  is approximately $4 excluding gst. There is also a minimum payment of $15 at Mcdelivery. The prices of the food at Mcdelivery are also more expensive than the prices of the food at a Mcdonald’s restaurant. This means that you would have to pay more compared to eating at a restaurant.Therefore, eating at a restaurant would be cheaper than food delivery services.  (Excess info/ points for CA. Where, then, is your rebuttal - your point to refute/ argue against your opponent's point?)

In a nutshell, online food delivery services is efficient and saves time however is also costly and contributes to plastic wastage in Singapore. We still prefer online food delivery services because of it’s convenience and efficiency. (So? Then what is the compelling reason for you to still prefer online food delivery over dining at restaurants?)]]> 2020-03-25 02:50:24 UTC https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/473822358 Audy & Eiliyah https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/473822911 (How would your opponents argue this to say that dining at restaurants is still preferable?) While others prefer dining in a restaurant, some disagree that the benefits of online food delivery services do not benefit us at all. Thus, they choose to dine in a restaurant instead however there are disadvantages to dining in a restaurant. On the other hand, when we choose to eat in a restaurant, we tend to overspend due to all the food presentations and how it tempts us to want to order the food even more. By doing so, we tend to be unaware that we are overspending over the highly placed price and go over our budget for a certain meal. For example, when we are eating at Pizza Hut, one might tend to look at the pictures of the food which is placed in the menu and be more intrigued by the visuals of it and will end up ordering it the food, this leads to overspending. Thus, eating at a restaurant does not make us aware of our overspending habits. (👍AGREE!!! Plus the overeating habit!)

CONCLUSION:
In a nutshell, online food delivery services are better compared to eating in a restaurant as it is cheaper, accessible and convenient. Therefore, this is why we prefer online food delivery services to eating in a restaurant.(These last two sentences are just repetitions of what you have just stated.

However, the people used online food delivery is not only because they are lazy but is that some of them are too busy and they have no time go out and buy food and the food delivery services make their life more convenient as they can order food and it will be delivered to their house. Most people think that the usage of plastic is too excessive but restaurant use more plastic to package the food to ensure that there is a low chance of spilling food and we can also request not to have any plastics and this will make the usage of plastic to be more lesser. 👍

However, people do not support the online delivery as it increases the use of plastic utensils and containers which destroys the environment. A solution to this is to reuse the plastic container for a few days and recycle it after using. 👍

Conclusion
In conclusion, online delivery is very convenient as you do not have to travel to the place and you get the comfort of staying at home.]]> 2020-03-25 02:54:45 UTC https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/473824605 Trena and Kelly https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/473825147 Although some people still remain to prefer online food delivery services to eating in a restaurant, others however still prefer to dine in than using the online food delivery services.Thus, there are more disadvantages that prove eating at a restaurant is more of an inconvenience for people compared to online food delivery services.

One of the many disadvantages of eating in a restaurant,might be caused by the extra charges when it comes to the bill. These extra charges will contribute to the person's bill and it will definitely cost you more than what you have expected from a meal itself. For example, the service charge, the 7% of Gst and some will even choose to tip the waiter or waiteress which will all be added up to actually quite an amount of money leading you to not being wary about the money you just spent on. Hence, eating in a restaurant makes people unaware of the extra charges that they have to pay for.(In this in support of your stand or against your stand? If this is in support, then where is your CA - points that your opponents would raise against online food delivery?

If this is against, then where is your rebuttal to say that even though online food delivery is this this this, dining at restaurants is still better because....?)

To conclude, both food delivery and eating in a restaurant have advantages and disadvantages but we prefer food delivery to eating in a restaurant. We can save time by ordering the food, it is also convenient and cheap. Sometimes due to wet weather it may delay. Therefore, this is why we chose online food delivery  compared to eating in a restaurant. If there are pros and cons, why then do you still prefer one over the other?)]]> 2020-03-25 02:55:46 UTC https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/473825147 Felix https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/474285038 While restraunts might offer reusable cutlery to further prevent climate change, some might argue that the time taken to travel to the place and to go back home is to long, and travelling there just for reusable cutlery is inconvinient and a waste of time,when you could just ask for no plastic cutlery and use your own reusable cutlery.This maybe true ,however,the time to get your food can be delayed by factors such as weather or traffic.Also the increase in plastic use is not only due to plastic cutlery but also plastic bags. (Good. You've gotten the idea of CAR!)

(Conclusion?)
In a nutshell,restaurants are far more eco friendly than food delivery , as they offer reusable cutlery.Also sometimes offering more efficient servies.At the same time being a little bit more inconvenient for some people.However, the pros of restaurants weigh out the cons

However, not everyone will agree with this and state that the disadvantages will outweigh the advantages.
One of the disadvantages is that the food might take quite a long time to deliver the food. Once the food takes too long, it will not be as fresh as before and might not taste nice. For example, some online food delivery takes more than 30 minutes to deliver the food. And if the food doesn't taste nice, we have to wait another 30 minutes if you want to order another one. Therefore online food delivery will be longer.
However, the total time when you dine at restaurants might take about the same time as food delivery. There are a lot of factors that make up the total time. For example, there are factors like time taken to walk there, time taken to wait in line, time for food to be delivered and time taken to walk back. Therefore dining at restaurant sometimes takes equally as long.(So, how would you rebutt - argue against such a CA?)

In conclusion, online food delivery has many advantages like enjoy food at the comfort of your own home. However there are also disadvantages like longer waiting time. But I prefer online food delivery because it is just so much more convenient.(But...? What is the compelling reason, then, that causes you to prefer online food delivery?)]]> 2020-03-25 13:02:01 UTC https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/474482530 Caden Geraldine Anthea https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/475648588  At the same time, people might get over reliant on online food delivery and will start to neglect leaving their house which will then impact their health and their social life. Usually, one will have to spend a certain amount of money in order to get the coupons which in turn could lead them to spend even more money without realising. Furthermore, coupons have an expiry date which could pressure the customers to use it on something they don’t desire.

In a nutshell, online food delivery has indefinitely changed the world and will continue to advance as we speak. Whether online food delivery is overrated could go either way as it is convenient and reliable but in turn could cost you a bomb. Hence, if online food delivery deserves all the recognition and praises from the society is still up for debate.

In a nutshell ,food delivery is better than dining but food delivery do have it flaws like excessive use of plastics but it’s advantage like convenience and  cheaper pricing out weighs its disadvantages ]]> 2020-03-26 01:50:44 UTC https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/475650550 https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/475651680 However not all people will agree to dining outside rather than online food delivery but dining outside will reduce the use of utensils and  plastic forks and spoons. There are also disadvantages of dining outside as you may have to queue in line for a long time but this could be solved by just waiting in line and not complaining. Therefore, dining outside is still better than online food delivery.




To sum it up, dining outside may have it's disadvantages but the advantages are not only good for you physically but also good for the enviroment]]> 2020-03-26 01:52:44 UTC https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/475651680 chloe https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/475652484 However, there are also disadvantages to dining at restaurants. For example, people tend to go out to eat dinner as they are either lazy to cook or just likes going out to restaurants to dine at. People tend to eat around peak hours and during peak hours restaurants are mostly crowded and will have to wait 20 to 30 mins for their seats. Therefore, dining at restaurants can bring us disadvantages.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, dining at restaurants have advantages and disadvantages. We can enjoy the scenery and taste how fresh the food is but sometimes restaurants might be crowded and has no seats. Therefore, dining at restaurants have pros and cons.]]> 2020-03-26 01:54:16 UTC https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/475652484 Amirul https://padlet.com/MrsHwee/eghamd4b4xrk/wish/476855552 However, many would say that dining at restaurants is more environmentally friendly as they offer reusable cutlery. When using online food delivery, plastic cutlery and containers is given out to customers thus harming the environment. This is true, but consumers could always choose to have no plastic cutlery in their order. More restaurants have also implemented different ways to reduce the amount of plastic used such as changing the plastic containers to cardboard containers and using paper bags. The consumers could then either reuse or recycle these materials. So far, this might be the lowest amount that we could reduced it to but in inevitable situations like when there is a pandemic, restrictions or a lockdown might happen. Restaurants might be forced to only do online food delivery. Hence, people would still use online food delivery as it is reliable and safer despite being less environmentally friendly. Yet, people still argue that you are still releasing carbon footprint when using online food delivery as they are so concerned about the environment. This is also true but some people travel in cars or use public transport to get to restaurants. Doing so is still releasing carbon footprint due to petrol emitting greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. Electric cars are better alternatives but they are not clean off carbon dioxide as manufacturing them still emits harmful gases. The electricity generated to charge the battery can also be indirectly harmful to the environment depending on where it is generated from. On the other hand, most online food deliveries are delivered by bicycles. This are far less harmful and does not leave any carbon footprint besides manufacturing them which produces much lesser amount of harmful gases. Therefore, online food delivery is still better than dining in at restaurants.

In conclusion, online food delivery is convenient and offers you a wide variety of food choices to choose from. Although many said that it is not environmentally friendly than dining at restaurants, if you take into consideration on the mode of transportation to get to the restaurant, you might be releasing more carbon footprint without realising it when dining at restaurants.
