    I need Public Speaking Persuasive Speech Ideas
    My teacher assigned a persuasive speech assignment. I've been wracking my brain,trying to find the perfect idea,but I'm struggling to come up with a really good one. Does anyone have any ideas? And it can't be anything controversial or emotional like abortion,topics based on conspiracy theories,topics dealing with diseases,or topics that endorse particular projects.

    I would really appreciate anybody's help.Thanks

    This was the prompt the teacher gave:

    Persuasive Speech II: The object of the speech is to advocate change. Specific action must be recommended. “Action” is defined broadly to include physical as well as “mental” actions. For example, a recommendation for a “mental” action may advocate a shift in attitude. Feedback will focus on development and support of claims, organization, audience adaptation, delivery, and style. An AUDIO/VISUAL AID and a Works Cited page with AT LEAST EIGHT SOURCES are REQUIRED. Turn in a full-sentence Roman numeral outline. (10 minutes)

    How about the pros and cons of holistic medicine and the medical sector?

    The effects of media on today's children? Are they healthy,fit, active,or not? Compare from 20 years ago to today.

    The advantages and disadvantages of living in a this century? Is life more complicated now?

    "Global warming ... and me?"
    " ... and us?"
    "... and our school?"

    "Become a mentor !"

    "Switch to Chocolate ice cream !" (or some such whimsical/tongue in cheek topic)
