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 enviromental problems.

In

this

modern era, the world has become tremendously industrialized than ever. Certain people believe that decline of particular

species

of flora and fauna is the major environmental issue in

this

current time, while others argue that more environmental problems are

also

predominant.

This

essay will decipher the main causes

such

as hunting and climatic changes in the forthcoming paragraph. On the one hand, the loss of specific

species

of

animals

and plants has been increasing in the

last

five decades. Hunting, poaching, and deforestation are the prime reasons for

this

decline of

species

around the world.

For instance

, rhinoceros are being killed by hunters for their horns.

Similarly

, wild

animals

like tigers and elephants have hunted for their skin and tusks respectively. A recent survey in the national geographic channel states that about 15% of endangered

animals

are at the brim of extinction.

Although

the government has enforced strict laws and acts against hunting and poaching, poachers and hunters still kill

animals

and sell them illegally.

Likewise

, deforestation is

also

one of the major causes of the extinction of

animals

and plants. Due to deforestation, many

species

of

animals

will lose their homes, and more trees and plants cut off to make furniture, shelters, and paper.

On the other hand

, global warming, climatic changes, and the overuse of plastics are

also

vital environmental issues. Immediately, both the government and the public have to focus on

this

to save our home planet. Especially, global warming is one of the main threats to

this

generation. Without delay, the solution has to be taken to minimalize the negative impacts of global warming

such

as hurricanes, storms, and extreme weather conditions. The increase in greenhouse gases is the main cause of

this

problem.

Hence

, a reduction in the usage of automobiles would drastically slow down the carbon emission in the environment.

Furthermore

, plastics should be replaced by degradable materials. In conclusion, both issues are massive threats in

this

era. It is our responsibility to protect our globe by initiating necessary precautions against these problems.
