Some people say that the main environmental problem of our time 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.

Ever since industrialization started to occur, our world has been dealing with various environmental issues, in which
species
loss
is one of the major concerns.
This
raises the question of whether the disappearance of breeds is the main difficulty of our generation. As for me, I believe that there are more urgent problems related to the
environment
that require prior attention. Not all
species
loss
can create heavy impacts on the
environment
. Every breed is a link to disparate chains.
However
, unless the links play indispensable roles to others, their disappearance would only cause minor influences and can be easily overcome.
Furthermore
, the vanishing of plant or animal breeds is partly a natural selection and has been happening forever.
Species
are extinct if they are not able to adapt to changes in the
environment
.
Accordingly
,
this
phenomenon is not as severe as it may seem. Some environmentalists may suggest that biodiversity
loss
should be our foremost priority. The reason is that the frequency of
species
disappearing is increasing rapidly compared to a few years ago. They
also
assume that, since our kind is
also
a link to numerous food chains,
this
would eventually influence us negatively.
For instance
, if the
species
extinct is one of our main diets, humans will suffer from extreme food shortages, which can encourage social instability.
Although
the
loss
of
species
has indeed been happening faster, it is still impossible for these incidences to affect people's lives in
such
straightforward ways.
In addition
, the reasons leading to the up pace of the disappearances are other environmental problems like climate change or habitat destruction.
Therefore
, by concentrating on solving other issues,
species
loss
can
also
be improved and prevented. To conclude, it is unnecessary to consider biodiversity
loss
as the principal difficulty to the
environment
.
Instead
, more efforts should be invested in handling more urgent problems since they
also
contribute to animals' and plants' extinction.
Then
, both the environmental issues and the
species
loss
dilemma can be solved.

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
