Environmental protection is the responsibility of politicians, not individuals as individuals can do too little. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Due to the detrimental impacts on our

planet

, environmental

preservation

has become one of the most concerning problems. Many assume that politicians are responsible for

such

an important task, as citizens can do too little.

However

, in my opinion, I absolutely disagree with

this

notion, and the reasons will be explained in detail in the following paragraphs.

To begin

with, every citizen can take part in a wide range of activities to protect the entire

planet

, which can result in

positive changes.

For instance

, taking public transport

instead

of private vehicles reduces up to 32% toxic emissions, according to recent research.

This

contributes hugely to the cleanliness of the environment.

Furthermore

, minimizing the use of plastic consumption

such

as plastic bottles or polymer containers relies heavily on individuals rather than the government or politicians, because hardly could the Laws prohibit residents from using plastic items.

Thus

, it is absolutely possible for the inhabitants in society to contribute to environmental

preservation

, and their contributions are truly undeniable. On top of that, the

preservation

of the environment is what everyone on Earth has responsibility for, no matter who they are. Maintaining the cleanliness of one’s surroundings is synonymous with the protection of not only his or her health

that of other citizens in the society since everyone shares the same

planet

to live on.

In other words

, any disaster resulting from environmental degradation

such

as floods, droughts, or epidemic outbreaks, could take a toll on the entire community without anyone being able to stay safe.

As a result

, if people are not well aware of these consequences, their

might get into trouble. To summarize, I completely object to the statement that protecting our

planet

is only on politicians because little does each resident contribute to the

preservation

. Individuals can do more than that, and the mission of protecting the Earth is the mutual responsibility of every single person living on

this

planet

.
