The key to solving the environmental problem is simple: the present generation is willing to accept a less Comfortable life for the sake of the future generation. To extent do you agree or disagree?

It is often argued that the environmental problem can easily be solved if the present civilization considers some aspects and accept

life

,

that is

less comfortable, for the sake of the

next

generation

. I disagree with

this

notion to a large extent;

however

, the importance of sacrificing the current

generation

can be Justified, and

therefore

, valid arguments for both sides of

this

phenomenon will be presented in

this

essay. Starting with the

first

view, people of the current

generation

can reduce the usage of private vehicles. To decipher

this

, a reduction in the number of public vehicles might create some inconvenience in people's

life

;

however

, it would diminish carbon dioxide emission and

also

decrease the carbon dioxide footprints.

Moreover

, it is undeniable that extensive industrialization is directly related to global warming, people of

this

generation

can lead a less luxurious

life

,

for example

, in order to reduce the extensive production of luxurious goods, which might be helpful to our environment.

By contrast

, replacement of the products which have a negative impact on our surroundings can improve the environment quality without even hampering the

life

of current populations.

First

of all, paper and cardboard bags can be used

instead

of plastic ones, due to their disposable quality. To elaborate

further

, Plastic bags are undisposable and remain in the environment for an uncountable period of time; affecting our ecosystem. Apart from

this

, energy sources can be replaced, from the traditional ones

such

as fuel, oil, and gas to renewable sources like solar power and wind energy. In fact, solar power is the largest source of energy on

this

planet earth.

Thus

, it is clear that it is possible to protect our surroundings without sacrificing our living style. To conclude, in spite of having the fact that sacrificing some aspects might bolster our nature protection, I believe that, despite sacrificing lifestyle, populations of the current

generation

can protect the surroundings and can make a better living place.
