The exploration and development of safe alternatives to fossil fuels should be the most important global priority today. To what extent do you agree and disagree?

It is often argued that
alternative
fuels
have to be the number
one
global
priority
this
time. In my perspective,
although
the need for
fuels
is really important for transportation, I totally disagree due to many global
problems
that are more crucial than the exploration and development of safe alternatives
fuels
, like
poverty
problems
and the right
education
for children.
First
of all, many developed
countries
are having trouble finding
alternative
fuels
. In fact, they get some fossil resources from poor
countries
at a very cheap price.
This
leads to poor conditions in some
countries
,
for instance
, African and Asian
countries
that are followed with health
problems
, like children's malnutrition and starving.
This
is why
poverty
should be the number
one
global
priority
because many
countries
are still having difficulties facing
this
problem.
On the other hand
,
education
for children nowadays must be
one
of our top priorities. The best
education
can give benefit the country itself and worldwide impact in the future. Taking Singapore as an example, many years ago
this
country has learned from England about the best
education
system that can be applied in their country.
As a result
, today many people from around the world come to Singapore as it is
one
of the best places for students to study and its modern technology and economic growth.
Moreover
, other
countries
should think of
education
as their
priority
to solve rather than
alternative
fuels
. To conclude, I believe that as global citizens, we have to think about issues that are more important and crucial like
poverty
and
education
rather than only focusing on safe
alternative
fuels
as a global
priority
. If the world can solve
poverty
and
education
problems
first
, I am sure that other
problems
in the world can be solved too.
