There is an uproar among individuals that the chief environmental issue of our time is the reduction of specific
and
, while others believe that more essential issues are affecting the ecosystem.
the extinction of some
and
is disturbing humans, in my opinion, I think that the more pressing issues confronting us are global warming and war.
, people have the notion that the extinction of a certain number of
and
will bring about an unbalanced ecosystem owing to the fact that a couple of insects that lay their eggs and eat specific
will need to look for another source of food and a place to keep their eggs. Few
act as a buffer for disease and as
when there is a depletion in the proportion of these, the disease will
spread among humans. Deforestation by the populace which happens yearly to make way for giant cattle farms and the transportation of
to places like China for drug production, all result in unbalanced surroundings.
, the extinction of
and
will lead to starvation as the population relies so much on agriculture to make food and kills different
for consumption.
, a survey carried out in Nigeria among the Ijaw tribes, revealed that the people of the community kill a specific animal for their yearly festive celebration.
, the diminishing rate in the number of these
and
will lead to hunger and the need to look for another source of food will arise.
Admittedly, global warming is one of the relevant problems that the globe is facing right now .
to say, the human practice of burning fossil fuels like gas petrol and coal causes the release of greenhouse gas emissions
as methane and carbon dioxide into the atmosphere which acts as a blanket covering the earth, thereby increasing the level of the earth's temperature resulting to climate change. The atmospheric change of the climate
leads to drought, water scarcity, fire outbreaks and changes in biodiversity. Additional circumstance facing us is war,
has turned out to be a problem the world is passing through recently. People's lives are affected following the outbreak of fights between different nations which leaves the citizens unsecured and vulnerable to danger. To illustrate, for the past few months, there has been a battle between Russia and Ukraine which has led to the increased mortality rate in both countries and, as
resulted in a decline in the population and life expectancy of its citizens.
To conclude, in as much as the loss of particular
and
will bring about the disruption of the surroundings and starvation, I believe that global warming and war are the most immediate problems disturbing our environment.
