Some people say that the main environmental problem of our time is the loss of particular species of plants and animals. Others say that there are more important environmental problems. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

There are various environmental issues that exist in the world today and these are one of the most discussed topics. Some people say that the most crucial environmental problems of our time are the loss of particular species of animals and

plants

, meanwhile, others believe that there are other environmental problems that need to be focused. In my opinion , the extinction of

plants

and animals is a major environmental issue. The following essay will inform us about both the views and

also

will give an explanation on my opinion. On the one hand,the extinction of particular species of

plants

and animals is the most vital issue because

this

will disturb the food chain.

For example

, if carnivores

such

as tigers will get extinct ,

then

more number of herbivores

such

as dears will be there and

this

would disturb the food chain as herbivores will eat more number

plants

and

then

there will be no balance maintained. To illustrate , if there are less number of

plants

,

then

the level of carbon dioxide emissions will increase.

On the other hand

, other environmental problems are

also

very important.

For example

, depletion of the ozone layer will lead to global warming and

this

will affect the climate.

For instance

, nowadays icebergs are melting which will lead to a rise in sea level. Climate change

such

as unusual rainfall like acid rain affects numerous amount of

plants

and

this

is leading to disturbance in the environment. To conclude, in my opinion,it is very important to focus on the extinction of species because

this

will

also

affect the climate and will lead to a major environmental issue .
