✨ Do you want to improve your IELTS writing?
It is commonly believed by most that conducting an international sporting
event
can cause several problems to the local
community
while some people argue that the benefits that local people receive from that
event
in terms of economic are far more than the difficulties.
This
essay will demonstrate both viewpoints and highlight my opinion for
this
argument. On one hand, the international sporting
event
can cause a serious environmental problem
such
as traffic jam and air pollution in local
community
due to a large number of participants who join the
event
.
For instance
, during the Olympic game in China, it had been reported that the amount of air pollution put young and elderly people
to
Suggestion
at
higher risk of lung cancer.
In addition
, littering that had been produced during the
event
also
cause the local government to spend a large amount of money to destroy and burn those garbage, which results in a large amount of carbon dioxide in the air.
On the other hand
, tourism and hotel industry as well as local merchants in the
country
that hosting the sporting competition,
also
earn high revenue according to international tourists who travel to join the
event
.
For example
, the Asean games, which has been conducted in Thailand in 2012, brought more than ten millions of tourists to Bangkok, where the
event
has been placed.
This
result in large money flow to domestic economy due to the increasing number of tourists from other countries, namely China, Indonesia and Malaysia to the
country
. In my view, the international sporting
event
help boost economy in the
country
. In the other words, when the economy in the
country
is strong, people will have a higher quality of life due to higher income per capita. Once the problem of quality of life has been resolved, the government can focus on environmental issues.
Therefore
, the advantages has been outweighed the environmental issue that it causes to
community
. In conclusion, establishing the international sporting
event
may create a lot of environmental
problem
Suggestion
problems
to
Suggestion
in
the local
community
;
however
, the benefits that people will receive from
such
event
is far more than the cons.
