Some people believe that it is the responsibility of politicians, rather than individuals, to reduce the world's environmental damage. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

There is a debate about whether politicians have more duty to alleviate the environmental problems all over the world or a single person does. I partly agree with

this

contention and I will enumerate my reasons below.

responsible for environmental pollution. For one thing,

although

there are some adequate laws, it is useless if someone does not abide by the laws.

For example

, in South Korea, there is an ordinance that regulates the

of disposable cups. When people decide to

it, they have to environmental fees.

However

, they still

them a lot since it is convenient.

Therefore

mentioned above, I endorse the view that politicians should play a more important role in environmental conservation.

Firstly

, they have legitimate authority to make major decisions as they are representatives of the public.

Thus

laws that can viably regulate adverse actions to the environment.

For instance

, they can enact guidelines in order to restrict the carbon emissions of factories. Another reason commonly put forward is that politicians have a huge influence on the people.

Hence

, it would be readily publicized provided that the representatives practice eco-friendly actions. Case in point, if they

of disposal cups or commute by bicycle rather than car, the public could follow them, encouraging these campaigns. In conclusion,

although

individual action can affect environmental problems, I reckon the statesmen have a stronger obligation to mitigate the contamination.
