The international community must act immediately to ensure that all countries reduce the consumption of fossil fuels (e.g. gas and oil). To what extent do you agree or disagree?
It is true that the consumption of fossil
fuels
has led to a range of environmental problems and measures should be taken to address this
global issue. It is argued that our reliance on fossil fuels
should be immediately cut down to tackle this
problem, in my opinion, I completely agree with this
idea and efforts should be made in order
to shift to other energy
options.
I agree that the consumption of fossil fuels
should be reduced. The burning of gas and oil is accountable for most of the emission of carbon dioxide on the planet, and this
has resulted in climate change worldwide. For example
, according to scientific research, the global temperature has risen by at least 2 degrees Celsius in the past century and a great number of icecaps have melted because of this
, which leads to a devastating impact on the natural habitats of wildlife. In order
to cope with this
issue, humans should reduce the amount of carbon dioxide emissions caused by the consumption of fossil fuels
right now.
In order
to cope with this
problem, we should make effort to develop alternatives. If governments and individuals consume less gas and oil now, other energy
sources are needed to guarantee households and factories have enough energy
supply. Renewable energy
is not reliable yet and is insufficient to satisfy our energy
needs. For instance
, in many developing countries, individuals and factories still rely heavily on fossil fuels
and only a small amount of renewable energy
is available, such
as solar power, wind and hydropower. Therefore
, governments should invest in renewable energy
as soon as possible.
In conclusion, as environmental problems are on our doorstep, I believe that both governments and individuals should take responsibility immediately to tackle this
issue in order
to provide a prosperous future for our children.Submitted by tincel on
