. In fact, it is the ultimate critical problem that can push us to the extinction of the world. Sever
solutions
 should be adopted to solve the thorny issues that have arisen. There are various forces that drive
this
 matter. Before all else, the
plastic
 littering problem of the world has been becoming an immense problem for our living societies.
Moreover
,
plastic
 would
also
 devastate the world ecosystem because of its durability and prolonged life cycle. Due to those abilities, these
plastic
 products will endure more than millions of years in the soil and at the bottom of oceans.
As a result
, all animals, sea creatures, and our living environment will have to confront the consequences of humankind's egotistic invention. Different
solutions
 should be taken into consideration to tackle these issues.
First
 of all, governments should notice and discourage the implications of
plastic
 to their communities. As a solution, they should provide strict rules and regulations to the companies, especially those with exposure to people,
such
 as catering industries and travel agencies. As an alternative way of approaching, the individuals and local business owners should restrict, as much as possible, the usage of
plastic
 products daily, like provoking the usage of paper boxes
instead
 of
plastic
 bags and encouraging the use of recyclable spoons and forks rather than
plastic
 ones. Taking everything into consideration, the above-mentioned problems could be solved by the given
solutions
. In my humble opinion, if these proposed alternative
solutions
 were to be implemented, the potential problems could be reduced to some extent, even if not totally eliminated.

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
