Some people say that economic development is necessary to reduce the poverty in the world. Others say that economic growth should be stopped immediately to stop damaging the environment. Discuss both sides and give your opinion.

In

this

contemporary era, the world is changing rapidly and dramatically. Economic development is an important thing to counter some gigantic problems like poverty and unemployment in each and every nation.

However

, some obedient citizens believe that it harms the

environment

in that way, which will not be irreversible, so it should be halted immediately. I cent per cent agree with the latter view.

First

and foremost, economic growth is the backbone of any nation. It definitely helps them to overcome poverty and unemployment, because it offers a huge amount of job opportunities. Due to it, if people have jobs,

then

they will able to buy basic amenities, because of

this

they would have chances to improve their lifestyles.

On the other hand

,

this

development creates more harm to the

environment

, owing to achieve it, industries and companies, not only have to generate

energy

but

also

manufacture products and in

this

process, lots of fuel is used, which creates pollution by emitting reek and particles into the atmosphere.

This

eventually damages the

environment

. In my opinion, to halt economic growth is not the best option. Nations must find another way to stop polluting the

environment

.

For example

, nowadays, everybody knows that renewable

energy

sources are the cleanest

energy

resources because they harness their

energy

through the natural sources

such

as sun, wind and water, they do not emit poisonous gases into the atmosphere. To conclude, the government should enact stricter laws for damaging environments, so it can be reduced greatly.

Also

, think about alternative

energy

sources, which generate

energy

without polluting the

environment

.
