Some people believe that factories and private tour operators should bear the cost of cleaning up environmental pollution, instead of the government. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this?

There has been a growing controversy about who should take responsibility for the cleaning cost of environmental

pollution

. While some people might argue that it should rely on the

factories

as they are the main

cause

of

pollution

, others believe it is totally the role of the

government

. In my opinion, I think the cost should be split between both parties and I will outline the causes in

this

essay.

To begin

with,

factories

are indeed the driving

cause

of environmental

pollution

. The toxic gases that they produce through their funnels as well as the huge amount of waste products that are continuously thrown into the sea threaten our planet and marine life. It is fair enough that they should pay for the cleaning up of their wastes and help to save the environment.

For example

,

factories

should buy filters to detoxify the gases coming out of their funnels.

Moreover

, the expenses required for recycling

factories

wastes should be shared between the

government

and the

factories

.

Although

factories

represent the major

cause

of environmental hazards, they are not the only

cause

of these hazards. The running vehicles around the city and hospitals, as well as home wastes, represent another source of pollutions. The

government

takes the financial burden from these sources. The more financial responsibilities are put on the

government

the faster its resources get exhausted. In conclusion, as we are all living in the same environment the cost of making it a better one should be shared. Because the

factories

are the main source of

pollution

and the

government

have many financial burdens, they should share in the expenses required for cleaning up our beloved planet.
