Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Governments should focus its budgets more on environmental protection than on economic development.
Environment and economic are both key words of our time, no matter who you are, everyone want to driving a powerful car to breathe the fresh air in the mountain, that is human nature, however, few of people have to experience this perfect illusion, so, there is much discussion over should government spend its money to protect environment or develop our economic, and different people hold opposite ideas. When it to me, I think government should focus its budgets on the economic development, it is better solutions to this question, here is my explanations.
To begin with, No one can deny the importance of environment, the nature provide fresh air, clean water, healthy food to us, so protest the environment is necessary to everyone. However, to protest our environment from pollution need a lot of money, for we need to purchase professional equipments, pay for the workers and experts who are engaged to this work, and sometimes the government must give benefit to this pollution sources, the factories. All of this measures need money, so, the living residents who are failed to enjoy the friendly environment must endurance the extra finance pressure. And this huge projects are easy to end at half, because lack of money. Further more, some environment projection need take few years to complete, and maybe after few decades, it will have satisfactory effect.
Secondly, to solve environment problem need people focus for a long time, and more importantly, the idea about protest the daily environment are also needed to implant in the local people mind, let the government speed a lot of money without calculate to protest our environment are definitely bad decision. For example, the yellow river, flowing passed my hometown lanzhou, been heavily polluted during past 30 years, the lanzhou citizens were complaint for this for many years, and a lot of mayors want to clear the river, they speed a lot of money on it, but unfortunately, one of the government finance source is excavated the sand of river bank, so they are controversial to think should allow the excavated ship to take the sand of river bank. But finally they decide to development the economic first.
Finally, Maybe someone want to question the result of economic first. I will take the Thames as a good example, in 17th, the Thames are famous dirty river, the report said that at that time, the river full of white fomes and the whole river have unplasent fumes ,you can hardly see a little fish, the citen are comlaint of the dirty river, and the government said they can do nothing about it because the government need the factory bring revene. When England became a developed contury and the citien and politics realised that environment is a important part of their daily life, they begian to clean the river. Today , people can swim in the Thames, and this is impossible in 200 years ago. This example tell us when you want to protest the environment , you must chose the economic first.
In short,Today, there are still many people who live under the traditional ideas that if you want to clean the river, you must close the factory around the river, if you want to fresh the air, you need remove the chimney from city. But the facts proved this can not solve the problem.
