It is certainly true that environmental problems should be taken seriously in order to prevent disaster in the future. Unfortunately,
however
Linking Words
, most people do not take
this
Linking Words
 threat seriously enough and
this
Linking Words
 is for a number of reasons. The following essay will outline why the majority of people do not care enough about the environment. Perhaps the main reason people do not give the environment much thought is because at the moment it does not affect their daily life.
This
Linking Words
 is because, generally, they cannot see how global warming or pollution is destroying the environment. It is only when a crisis occurs,
such
Linking Words
 as flooding, that people start to consider the reasons behind it.
However

, these are soon forgotten and the situation is once again ignored. Another reason environmental issues are ignored is that people do not know enough about them.
Although
Linking Words
 it is generally understood that recycling helps to save resources,
this
Linking Words
 is perhaps the only step people take to help the situation. Most people have heard of global warming and pollution, but do not fully understand the implications of them. If they did, sure they would use their car less and try at all costs to save resources more. Many people

 believe that these environmental problems will not impact society for another 50 to 100 years.
Consequently
Linking Words
, people feel these problems can be dealt with
then
Linking Words
 by future generations. Overall,
therefore
Linking Words
, whilst there may be some people who are fully aware of the environmental problems facing the planet, the majority of the population still do not give them the attention they deserve.
