Environment pollution is too alarming to be managed by individuals. Real change can be made at the government level. What extent do you agree or disagree?

The environmental problem has always been a problem for our Earth. Some people said environmental

pollution

is too alarming to be managed by individuals. Only

government

can help to make changes about it. To a large extent, I disagree with the claim. I believe it can be alleviated with the help of both

government

and citizens.

First

of all, it is understandable that people think only governments can stop environmental

pollution

.

For example

, Hong Kong

Government

phased out diesel commercial vehicles as well as strengthened emissions control on liquified petroleum gas and petrol vehicles. These actions were carried out to deal with the increasing air

pollution

problem created by the private vehicles' harmful gas emissions.

However

, the act of

government

can't solve the problems entirely without the cooperation and participation of individuals. There are so much that each and everyone can do.

For instance

, recycling paper, plastic and aluminium by throwing them into recycling bins

instead

of the rubbish bin; use electric fans rather than air conditioners to save electricity.

In addition

, we should

also

warn and stop others to behave and not littering on the ground or ocean. These actions may seem little and not noticeable, yet they will be effective if everyone is willing to do so. In conclusion, the

government

already doing a lot for our environment. It is

also

our duty to make it safe and clean for our future generation. We cannot leave everything on the authority to save our globe from

pollution

, we all should take steps together.
