Some people think that planting trees in open space in cities and towns is more important than building houses.
To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Green space is currently one the most popular trends among the world.

Therefore

, the idea of planting more trees in urban areas

instead

of building residences is introduced by some people. I totally agree with

aforementioned idea

Suggestion

the aforementioned idea

that we should have more green spaces rather than having more houses in cities and town. The following paragraphs will provide some cases and examples to support my point of view. Planting more trees in cities provides us many benefits, both to the

environment

and to the people living in those areas.

Initially

, it is disputable that the pollutions in many big cities, like New York, London, Paris, have been significantly increased in the past few decades, resulted from a growing number of cars and constructions.

Hence

, it is important to grow more trees to purify the air and filter the dust in those areas to create a better

environment

.

Moreover

, creating more green spaces can greatly benefit people’s mental health.

For example

, countries having

the high

rates of suicide and depression, like South Korea, should plant more trees, since many researches claimed that the green

color

colour

of a tree can surprisingly ease people’s mind and reduce

levels

of stress.

 The reasons that make building more houses in cities seems to be secondary priority are its damages

the

and drawbacks in economic terms. To elaborate, expanding residential area means more

trees and lands will be destroyed to build houses, not to mention pollutions, chemicals, dust from the constructions that will adversely affect both people in

the community

and

environment

in the long run.

Moreover

, in some cities like Taiwan or Tokyo are already packed up

houses and apartments, resulting in

Consequently

, people in those countries will not be able to afford a house, and problems like crime and homeless will be more and more. To conclude, even though some people might hold the view that we should build more houses to facilitate people, I am still convinced that the human activity like construction will cause us the problems in the long terms.
