Determine whether the following passage is (or contains) an argument."The argument advanced at a recent government hearing-that because we will not be dependent on plutonium for more than a few hundred years it 'will not be an important problem indefinitely'-entirely misses the point. Though we may rely on plutonium for only a relatively brief period, the plutonium produced during that period may be with us indefinitely, and it may jeopardize the lives of many times the number of generations that profit from its use."-Ronald M. Green, "International Justice and Environmental Responsibility"
