It is widely argued that increasing the number of

employment to
people
in need;
however
, some improvements in the
overall
process are required. On the one hand,
industries
are capable of providing financial stability to
people
by increasing job opportunities in an area as
industries
will require labour in order to operate properly.
As a result
, it will decrease the number of unemployed
people
in that area. To aptly illustrate it, "Guru Gobin Singh Oil Refinery" is the prime example of
this
because it provided jobs to more than 50,000 unemployed
people
within its 20km radius. Despite providing jobs,
industries
also
contribute largely to the world's pollution.
However
, there are some rules and regulations for pollution that are done by
industries
but these
industries
are able to find loopholes in the law and start abusing them for their benefit.
For example
, Most of the toxic gases in the air come from
such
industries
.
Apart from
this
, these
industries
are built on land which is usually a product of deforestation and increasing them will in turn promote deforestation, which is responsible for the extinction of many species of flora and fauna.
To conclude
, increasing
industries
are able to decrease poverty by providing more jobs. At the same time, they will
also
cause environmental damage.
Thus
, I opine that there should be strict implementation of laws for the environment's safety when increasing
industries
and all of
this
should be done in a controlled manner.
