Some people believe that the main environmental problem of our time is the loss of particular species of plants and animals. Other say that there are more important environmental problems. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
Some people believe that the extinction of certain species of plants and animals is the major environmental issues, while others argue that there would be more vital issues threatening our environment/ natural habitat. I entirely support the latter view and think that
climate
change
and earth contamination are the two other detrimental problems that deserve our attention.
On the one hand, losing the richness, evenness, and compositions of certain plants and animal species will have many adverse consequences to our surroundings. Firstly
, there is considerable evidence that ecosystem functioning such
as (nutrient cycle and productivity) and its stability will be affected. The only loss of one type of rare breed can adversely influence other creatures' food chain. Secondly
, biodiversity decline may also
diminish human well-being by decreasing the services that the ecosystem provides for people. Changes in the ecosystem pose an immediate danger to food security for mankind. So, since the global extinction has been proven to be an irreversible issue, aid rescuing flora and fauna should be encouraged through preserving practices, including establishing more ecological zones, breeding programs.
On the other hand
, climate
change especially
global warming and waste disposal into the environment are the two most serious environmental problems. The evidence of the sea-level rise and associated flooding with loss of homes and lands are becoming frequent. In Accept comma addition
change, especially
this
way, both humans and other living creature's habitat will be destroyed. Secondly
, by the spread of human habitation, urbanization, and industrial sectors more waste has been discarded into the environment. The chemical emissions from factories pollute rivers, harm sea life which can hurt people's health as well. Moreover
, People by discarding plastic bags are spoiling the natural beauty spots which destroy the tourism industry, and consequently
, the economic growth will be decreased. In this
way, birds and marine animals can die through being trapped or caught up in plastic bags or ropes. If the major contributors to climate
change
/emergency will not control, there would be little hope of future life.
In conclusion, although
the loss of endangered species both
flora and fauna is a great regret, I believe that if Accept comma addition
species, both
climate
change
and damage from excessive plastic waste continue, there will be less habitable land, food for everyone including plants and animals which is devastating.Submitted by mahla on
