issue. There are several reasons why it is argued that

this

problem is too late to be solved.

Firstly

situation.

Secondly

, those extinct species are lost forever and it would be impossible for us to bring them back to life.

For example

Linking Words

, the dodo, which has been extinct for several centuries, no longer exists on our planet.

Finally

Linking Words

, owing to rapid development in the past few centuries, human beings have been requiring massive land that used to be the habitats of plants and animals, which is the main cause of extinction.

Nonetheless

, despite the severe damage that we have done to the earth, I believe that we still have opportunities to solve

this

situation. To start with, governments should implement stringent laws to stop any illegal animal hunting to encourage wildlife preservation.

Besides

, both authorities and individuals should use paper efficiently and promote paper recycling.

For instance

, employees can print double-sided to reduce their use of paper and authorities can set up banks for recycling.

Furthermore

Linking Words

, green taxes can be introduced to encourage residents to travel in an environmentally friendly way. In conclusion, I believe that it is never too late to start saving our planet Earth and there are a number of measures that can be taken by governments and individuals to improve
