Some people say that economic development is necessary to reduce poverty in the world. Others say that economic growth should be stopped as it damages the environment. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

It is often said that financial

growth

is a solution to economic difficulties around the world.

However

this

issue is not entirely straightforward, and an argument can

be made against the idea, especially in terms of the environmental effects of economic

.

This

essay will discuss the debate and give a concluding view. On the one hand, those who support financial development claim that new business opportunities will emerge with the

, causing new job spots for the population who are coping with poverty. Examples can be seen in

that have technologically developed recently

such

as the United States or China. In these

, many people who were seeking jobs now have highly-paid occupations in the new factories on technology.

Furthermore

, if

had powerful economies,

would provide a fund to subsidize increasement society's welfare. Centres for homeless people and scholarships for students can be given as examples. To proponents of

idea, these reasons are convincing.

By contrast

, the critics of the financial improvement point to the view that new factories will be built to expand the economy, resulting in disposing hazardous waste into rivers and

water pollution.

This

would destroy the natural habitat of rivers and seas, and eventually affect human health. In developing

,

for instance

, the top issue of the governments is water pollution which is caused by industries and

this

problem needs an additional budget to solve.

Moreover

, uncontrolled

of the economy leads to rural migration toward cities and

thus

urban sprawl would be observed.

This

results in deforestation because of cutting trees to build skyscrapers, so an increase in carbon dioxide emissions and air pollution. Metropolis can be given as examples for economic centres and the most air-polluted areas in the world. These are

strong arguments against the idea. In conclusion, I would tend to side with opponents of economic

.

Although

may be seen as a remedy for financial struggle, it has significant adverse effects on the environment. It would be logical to prohibit

and protect the environment from destruction.
