People are divided on the role of economic
development
. Some opine that it is essential in addressing poverty, whereas others say that it should be stopped as it is causing irreversible damage to the
environment
.
This
essay intends to analyse both perspectives. I personally believe that both arguments have waited as poverty has to be mitigated, but saving the
environment
is
also
equally important. So, we have to look into methods of Sustainable economic
development
. Stopping economic
development
is not the way out. It is irrefutable that by the

forms a very small part of what is used on a significant scale. Effluents from large factories are being dumped indiscriminately and landfill sites are filling up with non-biodegradable wastes. All
this
is being done in the name of
progress
. Looking at both arguments, it is clear that with economic
development
, the damage to the
environment
is Inevitable. But, we cannot put a halt on economic
progress
because the status of the underprivileged has to be improved.
Therefore
, we have to look into methods by which we can achieve
progress
without damaging the
environment
.
For instance
, we know that there are renewable sources of
energy
which are less polluting. So, the answer lies in the green technologies, which increasingly use renewable resources of
energy
. We should
