The current urbanization and industrialisation have a greater impact on the atmosphere and on the water by making them completely polluted. In
this
essay, I shall discuss the causes of
this
problem and
also
the preventive measures that can be taken. To start with, one of the major reasons for air pollution is the high percentage of undesirable gases in the atmosphere
such
as sulphur dioxide and carbon monoxide.
For example
, let's consider the plastics that come out from the industries. As they are made from oil and as the process of extracting and turning it to plastic is carbon-intense, it does not break down quickly in nature, which leads to carbon emissions. These can
also
cause respiratory problems for people staying near or around.
Similarly
, the waste that comes from these buildings is going directly to the rivers.
This
way the reservoir is getting depleted and
also
it is a serious threat to the aquatic animals living in it. The solutions to these issues are,
firstly
, to reduce plastic and increase the efficiency of equipment and invest in renewable energy.
Besides
, treat the aqua in different stages, before releasing them into ponds. To
also
, start rainwater harvesting.
Lastly
, To keep fossil fuels grounded. All the countries need to move their economies from fossil fuels as soon as possible. I conclude by telling that, we are only purely responsible for the damage of our motherland.
Hence
, the government should pass strict laws discussed above and should make sure the industries and the constructions sites follow them at any cost.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
