Q/ Some people think that human needs for farmland, housing, and industry are more important than saving land for endangered animals. Do you agree or disagree with this point of view? Why or why not? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer

The debate on the competition between preserving the

land

to cover human necessities like housing and farming and protecting the

land

for animals who are seriously at risk of extinction, have been going on for decades. While some environmentalists advocate for the

wellbeing

Suggestion

well being

of animals over humans, others may think the opposite. In my opinion, protect the

land

to cover human demands takes precedence over animal protection. I feel

this

way for two main reasons which I will explore in the following essay.

First

of all, the lack of space in big cities and the primary

necessity

of being close to jobs and schools, has

provoke

provoked

an increase in housing development projects and an expansion in construction sites. Is a general believe that life can be more pleasant and civilized in urban areas compare to rural zones. So, with

this

new tendency, the

necessity

of

preserve

Suggestion

preserving

more

land

has become a government's priority.

In addition

, because of the growing

population

, the

necessity

of expansion has taken precedence over other areas of interest, which have become a nightmare for developers that need to comply quickly with the city's

demand

. My own experience is a compelling example of

this

. I remember when I bought my house a few years ago. The

neighborhood

a surrounding or nearby region

neighbourhood

was small and quiet, with affordable mortgages, few cars on the road and noiseless places to visit. With the

population's

Suggestion

population

increase, the city's mayor, with the help of architects and other authorities, had to plan an urgent solution for an emergent problem. Starting two years ago, new houses and complex apartments were built, along with other amenities, and people started moving-in in a short time. Nowadays, the

neighborhood

a surrounding or nearby region

neighbourhood

where I live became in a beautiful municipality, where shopping places,

theaters

a building where theatrical performances or motion-picture shows can be presented

theatres

and restaurants try to please the high

demand

of

population

Suggestion

the population

.

Secondly

, is important to design an agricultural system able to support the

population

's

demand

, as well as to develop industries that provide

jobs

Suggestion

job

opportunities and ensure the well function and progress of a future city. For

this

reason, preserve the

land

is an important matter and people need to make aware

on

Suggestion

of

the importance of

land

preservation for future generations.

Although

animal conservation is crucial to keep endangered species from risk, I consider zoos and aquariums good places to take care of them.

For example

, I remember reading an article about the Ogallala Aquifers and the

necessity

of

preserve

Suggestion

preserving

the

land

and the water underground for crop development, so crops can continue growing healthy, providing the food supply needed to satisfy the increased

population

.

Furthermore

, the article not only supports the importance of

land

conservation and water resources management, but

also

invites to reflect on the overuse of

land

and the consequences for humans and the environment in the large run. In conclusion, I strongly believe that preserve the

land

for building and farming purpose is more important than preserve the

land

for animals in great danger of extinction.

This

is because the

land

can be used to expand overcrowded cities, providing more space for houses, schools and factories, as well as for agricultural intentions

to support

Suggestion

support

the

demand

of the growing

population

.
