Certain

in the world have become extinct and many are on the verge of extinction.
However

,
although
Linking Words
I agree that
this

is an important environmental
problem
Use synonyms
, I do not believe that it is the most critical.
On the other hand
Linking Words
, the disappearance of any living
species

affects the environment. It is undeniable that every
species

on earth is a part of a delicate balance of the ecosystem. To illustrate, if a certain type of snake disappears, the number of mice that are the main food of snakes will increase.
As a result
Linking Words
, without the predator to control the number of mice, too many of them can lead to the destroying of corps and
also

an increase in the number of diseases which has mice as carriers.
However
Linking Words
, despite the obvious
problem

of extinction of a particular type of plants or animals, I still believe that

is more urgent. While it takes time for

to become extinct,
water

happens every day and its results can be seen quite rapidly. Many countries are encountering river and ocean

problems which are caused mostly at the hand of humans. Especially in countries with poor rubbish management, waste and garbage are dumped into a river and end up in the ocean.
As a result

,
water

becomes polluted and neither suitable for drinking nor marine animals to live in. These can lead to a serious food shortage in the future.
Finally
Linking Words
, the most worrisome environmental
problem

is global warming. Toxic fumes from industries, vehicles and farming contribute to releasing greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere and causing the temperature to rise in certain parts of the world.
Consequently
Linking Words
, many countries experience abnormal natural disasters
such

as flash floods and wildfires more than at any point in the history of mankind. These effects from global warming harm humanity directly whereas extinction of certain

indirect effects.
Thus

, it is sensible to prioritise and focus on solving the global warming
problem

first
Linking Words
. In short, While I agree that the loss of certain

of plants and animals is an important environmental issue, I still believe that

and global warming are far more critical and urgent.
