Some people say that the main environmental problem of our time is the loss of particular species of plants and animals. Other say that there are more important environment problems. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
Experts throughout both the developing and developed
world
have debated whether the most critical environmental problem is the extinction
of some endangered species
of plant and animal kingdom or whether there are other issues which are more severe. Personally, I strongly advocate the later

On the one hand, there is ample and strong evidence that losing some plants and animals
has an extremely negative effect, especially on the balance of an ecosystem which will be destroyed. As the first point, some animals
will no longer have a proper diet and will consume other types of food
. An extensive study from the University of Cambridge, for instance
, illustrated that the grey wolves in North America tend to hunt larger preys

such
as cows and goats, leading to the loss of villages’ properties. Another point which should be taken into consideration is that losing some species
in the food
chain will lead to a domino effect on the predators as well. The central reason behind this
is that some animals
could eat only one certain type of food
and could not survive without it. For example
, the population of blue-tailed shrimp in the Pacific Ocean started to be reduced from
the lack of red algae. In the meantime, rock snappers, big fish whose Change preposition

is shrimp, also
have a declining number.

Word Count
IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.
A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.
Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
