Some people think climate change has a negative impact on business, while others think that it provides more business options. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
It is almost undeniable at
this
point that climate
change
might be the most dangerous threat that humanity has to encounter and will need to be addressed immediately. Even though an abrupt change
in climate
around the world might force people
to adjust their way of living and therefore
, give new ideas for businesses
to come up with new products
. I believe that in long term the impacts that climate
change
has on both people
and businesses
around the globe will trump its benefit and I will elaborate more on this
in the following paragraphs.
First
and foremost, climate
change
does not just mean that the storms will be more severe or there will be floods more often. Change
in climate
includes the rise in overall temperatures and sea levels around the world. A slight change
in the environment could potentially harm numerous animal species and natural habitats and completely change
those areas forever. Lands that are suitable for farming and growing crops might be affected by this
environmental issue, combined with unpredictable weather could halt the production of raw outputs that will be used in producing goods later on. Moreover
, with climate
change
becoming more severe, a lot of areas will be underwater in the future which will force people
to lose their homes and way of living. And as a result
, they are likely to lose their ability to spend on goods and products
which in long term will lead the economy into a recession and negatively affect the business. Most importantly, Unsustainable business practices and one of the main factors that help accelerate climate
change
. Hence
, the faster businesses
try to come up with new goods by using immoral practices and destroying natural resources, and emitting pollution and toxic chemicals to the environment, the more severe climate
disasters are going to be. It is a vicious cycle that needs to be broken by the cooperation of people
, governments, and most importantly the businesses
themselves.
On the other hand
, businesses
can still be benefited from these changes in the environment which will eventually lead to people
having to adjust their lifestyles. For example
, air pollution and PM 2.5 problems have been one of the most prominent issues for Thai people
over the past 5 years. Because of this
issue, a lot of people
were forced to wear masks when going outside even before COVID and air purifier quickly became the default electronic appliance that every house needs to have which in a way, helped businesses
to thrive and quickly innovate better products
for the market to keep up with the high demand.
In conclusion, it is possible that climate
change
will give an idea for people
to invent new products
and have positive impacts on business but this
tiny advantage is comparable to catastrophic results that climate
change
can bring upon us.Submitted by prawuntipjaa on

Word Count
IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.
A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.
Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
