Individuals can do nothing to improve the environment; only governments and large companies can make a difference. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

These days, preserving the

environment

is a bigger and bigger concern in the modern world for not only each person but

also

governments

and large businesses.

However

, the role of individuals is thought to be useless, only

governments

and big companies can have abilities to solve

this

problem. In my opinion, I disagree with

this

statement because of the following reasons. In fact, both

governments

and corporations should be responsible for protecting the

environment

.

First

of all, not only

governments

in many countries but

also

local authorities can put time and effort into raising public s’ awareness.

For instance

, they can educate inhabitants via media

such

as advertisements and news. Thanks to

this

, everyone can join hands to better the

environment

.

In addition

,

governments

and large companies should create a habit of protecting the

environment

for each person not only in public places but

also

at work by imposing stricter punishments for violating environmental laws.

Furthermore

, ordinary people make a significant contribution to preserving the

environment

through many meaningful activities.

Firstly

, the easiest action is throwing waste in the right place. It is just a small habit in daily life but it creates a big impact on the

environment

.

Moreover

, citizens can limit the use of some products that are harmful to the

environment

such

as plastic bags and poisonous chemicals.

In addition

, they can use public transport rather than private vehicles which creates many emissions into the air. In conclusion, I disagree with the statement that environmental problems can only be solved by

governments

and large enterprises because ordinary people

also

join hands to contribute to the process of enhancing and maintaining the planet clean.

In other words

,

this

matter can only be dealt with by the corporations of both

governments

, companies, and individuals.
