Today's generation is termed as more environmentally aware compared to our forefathers. Which is in fact accurate as well as it is the need of the hour. Our home planet is undergoing one of the most severe climate changes in recorded history.
Although

we have a good number of people supporting the

of plants and animals as the key factor, I disagree with the majority. I believe other problems
such
Linking Words
as industrialization have deeper impacts on the environment.
Firstly
Linking Words
, we must understand what effects does the
loss

of specific
species

of plants and animals cause. Numerous studies suggest that the
loss

of any type of living being would disrupt the immediate beneficiaries and in turn disrupt the entire ecosystem.
However
Linking Words
, in the entire documented history we have never seen
such
Linking Words
drastic impacts. Not only the claims for damages to the ecosystem are unproven but
also
Linking Words
the accusations for disturbing the food pyramid were found to be false.
Therefore
Linking Words
, it would be a safe bet to rule out the
loss

of
species

as a pivotal environmental problem.
In contrast
Linking Words
to the above claims, the impacts of industrialization have been proved and experienced by many of us. It might not be shocking nowadays to read the headlines about another piece of forest that was acquired by unethical means for the expansion of businesses. As the forest land has reduced we are facing an immense shortage of rainfall.
In addition
Linking Words
, disposing of the harmful waste in the environment by different means has made our worst fears come true.
For instance
Linking Words
, arctic ocean water near Norway was found to be 35% more polluted compared to 15 years ago.
Thus
Linking Words
, it seems pretty evident that industrialization has impacted mother earth. To conclude, I would reiterate that we should never ignore the effects of the
loss

of any particular

. But, there are many other factors that are causing more danger to the climate.

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
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
