4. What counterarguments do the writers present? How do they respond to them?

themselves

an intensive pronoun is a pronoun that ends in self or selves, such as himself, herself, themselves, yourself, ourselves. since band members is a third person plural, the correct intensive pronoun would be themselves. if the band was talked about as a collective noun, itself would be the appropriate intensive pronoun. intensive pronouns are used to add emphasis to the noun it's modifying which is why it directly follows it.

yes they most likly are and have planed t try to bring human life and supplies there also(due to global warming and other harmful resorces)

the writer needs to avoid using abbreviations and check spelling before sharing.
