Human activity has had a negative impact on planet and animals around the world. Some people think that this cannot be changed, while others think actions can be taken to bring about a change. Discuss both the views and give your opinion
Undoubtedly, for decades, human activity on
Earth
has negatively affected the environment, causing massive problems such
as global warming and the extinction of various flora and fauna in the world
. Some people
argue that the damage cannot be reversed as it is too extensive. However
, the opponents including myself believe that there are several steps that can be taken to slow down or even reverse this
condition.
To begin
with, the world
we are living in today has changed in the last
20 or 30 years. One of the most significant changes is rising the Earth
's temperature, leading to other issues such
as rising the sea level and melting the polar ice that some people
say could not be repaired. This
in return may cause many lands to drown. Indeed, it is predicted that in 20 years Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia will drown, if the authority does not take significant steps to mitigate this
issue. Another argument proposed by the people
who believe that damages to the Earth
are non-reversible is that many animals or plants have already extinct or are in great danger. Therefore
, the Earth
at some point will also
extinct.
However
, In my opinion, there are several actions that can be taken to reduce the damage to the Earth
. First of all, I agree that the main problem we face today is probably global warming as it affects all people
around the world
. In fact, the main cause of this
problem would be the CO2 emissions from vehicles and industrial activities. Therefore
, reducing greenhouse gas emissions may greatly reduce the Earth
's temperature. In addition
, many countries in the world
have started to replace coal and fossil fuels with green energy sources to reduce the emission of this
gas. Electric cars have also
been introduced worldwide, and gaining popularity. Also
, there are a few steps that can speed this
positive development. For example
, governments can put tax exemptions for citizens who own electric cars, and the public contributes by promoting a more environmental choice such
as using public transport to commute instead
of private vehicles.
In conclusion, I believe that there is a lot we can do to save our planet, such
as reducing greenhouse gas emissions by using electric cars and encouraging the use of greener energy sources.Submitted by irarahmawati.polkesma on
