Some people say that it is possible for a country to be both economically successful and have a clean environment. Others disagree. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
People have different views on sustainable development.
While
some people argue that it is impossible to simultaneously succeed in economic development and environmental protection, I believe that we can achieve both targets.
On the one hand, there are many reasons why it can be argued that economic targets cannot be achieved without causing environmental problems. Perhaps the principal reason is that in order to meet the growing demand for energy, tapping natural resources seems to be the most feasible solution and Linking Words
such
activities unavoidably pose serious risks to the fragile environment. Linking Words
For example
, when we discover a source of oil in a place, we might have to cut down all the trees in that area if we want to exploit it. Another reason is that the climate could be affected by industrialization, which many developed countries have to undergo. Clearly, carbon emissions or waste are inevitable results of the production processes of factories and industrial zones.

On the other hand
, I am of the opinion that we can develop our economy and preserve the ecology at the same time. Linking Words
Firstly
, if the government heavily invested in alternative power sources, the over-dependence on fossil fuels could be reduced and Linking Words
this
allows us to maintain our development Linking Words
while
decreasing the level of environmental contamination. Linking Words
For example
, Oman which used to be completely dependent on non-renewable energy now mainly uses environmental-friendly energy Linking Words
such
as solar power for their industrial activities. Linking Words
Secondly
, it is evident that countries which develop a service-oriented economy are not only rich, but their environment is Linking Words
also
friendly and stable. Sweden, Linking Words
for example
, has a robust economy, thanks to putting an emphasis on protecting its natural habitats and developing tourism.
In conclusion, I would contend that by taking justifiable measures we can attain both economic achievements and environmental sustainability, Linking Words
although
some people assist in rejecting Linking Words
this
worthy aim.Linking Words
