The two types of sources that were common in the results were websites and blogs.

Individuals, and especially the environmentalists, wrote most of the blogs that were available. The two sources shared different types of information.

On the other hand, most of the blogs were written by activists who are interested in highlighting environmental issues in Fayette County.
Identify one source that seemed to be the strongest, and describe what is most useful or interesting about the source.
The source that seemed to be the strongest was the website. There was diversity in the information that was presented. Some of the websites came from some of the most reliable sources, and that means that the information was of help (Fayette County Administration, 2015). The local administration has been communicating about the environmental issues that are affecting the county. When the local administration shares information, the information must have come from experts. With this in mind, it is no doubt that the information available was the strongest.
