Task Achievement
Your essay provides a clear position throughout, engaging directly with the prompt. However, it lacks a full development of ideas in some parts. It would benefit from further exploration and explanation on how each environmental problem impacts the ecosystem. To better fulfill the task requirement, aim to discuss the implications of each view with depth and provide more detailed examples to support your perspective for a higher band score.
Coherence & Cohesion
The essay demonstrates some organization of ideas; however, transitions between sentences and paragraphs could be enhanced to improve the reader's ability to follow the argument. There are instances of repetition which disturb the flow of information. To improve coherence and cohesion, employ a wider range of linking devices and synonyms effectively. Clearer topic sentences at the beginning of each paragraph would also help to strengthen the logical flow of your argument.

Answer the 'Problem and Solution' topic

Problem-and-solution essays fall naturally into two parts, the first describing and exploring the problem, the second setting out the solution or solutions.

You essay structure should look something like this:

  • Introduction
  • Body paragraph 1 – Problems
  • Body paragraph 2 – Solutions
  • Conclusion

Examples to start your body paragraph:

  • One of the first problems of the...
  • Another problem that needs to be considered...
  • A possible solution to this problem would be...
  • One immediate practical solution is to...
