Some people say that the main environmental problem of our times is the loss of particular species of plants and animals. Others say that there are more important environmental problems. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

One

of the biggest concerns of humans in the 21st century is environmental

problems

. It is thought by some people that the disappearance of certain plant and animal

species

should be put into serious consideration. Meanwhile, others hold the consumption that it is of an urgent need to look into broader and more important global environmental

problems

. In

this

essay, I will examine both of these views and try to draw some conclusions. On the

one

hand, there is an environmental problem that put many scientists and environmentalists under a lot of pressure. It is the extinction of certain botanical

species

and animals. The ecosystem is unlikely to remain balanced if any

species

is wiped out. The loss of

one

species

may lead to the others on the verge of extinction because they have an interrelationship with

one

another.

For instance

, the decrease in the number of wasp population may lead to the reduction of many flowers’ opportunities to be pollinated which probably results in the shrinking in the number of some kinds of plant that wasps tend to frequent.

On the other hand

, a more gigantic environmental problem that should be thought of and put into priority is global warming. Severe weather conditions increasingly happen

such

as torrential rains, freezing cold or scorching hot weather. These weather conditions might be to blame for the manufacturing activities of humans that lead to

global warming.

Besides

, natural disasters namely floods, tsunami, typhoons and volcanic eruptions have tremendously affected the lives of billions of people in the world with more and more devastating levels.

Moreover

, the increase in sea level is the most worth-concerned issue, especially when the ice in both poles of the earth is melting gradually.

Hence

,

this

constitutes a foreseen threat to the survival of human beings. All things considered, every environmental-related issue should be carefully examined and people ought to take urgent actions to address these

problems

, whether they are large-scaled or small-scaled

problems

because, from my point of view, the tiniest issues which are not concerned properly can possibly cause more serious

problems

to happen and threaten the survival of any creature on Earth.
