It is often argued that the government should carry out the whole responsibility in protecting our globe. While some people think that every person should also be responsible in looking after the universe. This essay discusses both sides of this argument and then I will give my own perspective.
On the one hand, I believe that the administration institutions must set a very restrictive rules to protect the environment. To be more precise this means that the management department needs to apply special law that prohibits people to throw any cans or bottles in the rubbish but recycling them instead. Taking the US as an example, when the government banned anyone to get rid of any debris at the beach this resulted in cleaning the environment as well as reducing the pollution.
On the other hand, every person plays an essential role in taking care of the atmosphere. This because when an individual feels that he holds the full responsibility to keep the area where he lives in clean. Moreover, he will be counted for his behaviour if he breached the rule. In this case a lot of pollution problems will be diminished. To illustrate, according to the survey that has been conducted through the government in Turkey, which states that every individual is enforced to contribute in a voluntary action also should propose a viable solution to decrease the impact of greenhouse gases.
In conclusion, although the authority bare the complete responsibility in decreasing environmental problems. I believe that people should also be participating in maintaining the cleanliness of the globe.
