Human activity has had a negative impact on plants and animals around the world. Some people think that this cannot be changed, while others believe actions can be taken to bring about a change. Discuss both viewpoints and then give your opinion.

Human

has been damaging various ecosystems around the

planet

. While some people argue that

this

damage is irreversible, others argue that we can still save our

planet

. In

this

essay I will address both sides of the argument and

then

I will give my own perspective. On the one hand, some people say that we are in a helpless situation when it comes to reverse the damage we have caused. After the industrial revolution, a significant number of forests have been deteriorating.

Moreover

, numerous natural water sources were polluted.

This

amount of impact cannot be salvaged even if we try. The reason for

this

, is that humans have limited power when it comes to positively impacting environment. It has been proven throughout history that destruction is easier than construction when it comes to our species’ impact on the world.

On the other hand

, some people still have faith that humanity can reverse the negative impacts which it caused. They believe that changing our mindsets and behaviours towards our fellow inhabitants of

this

planet

can have an outstanding improvement on the current situation.

For example

, the pollution levels in the Hudson river in New York

have been decreasing

have decreased

significantly since 2008 when the US government passed a bill to mitigate chemical discharge in that water body. In conclusion.

Although

we might feel overwhelmed with the environmental damages we have caused, I believe that the situation can be reversed if we put the

wellbeing

well being

of our

planet

as a priority. Of course education and media can play a major role

in

making us more optimistic and

consequently

more capable of change.
