21 December Independent Writing: Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? To increase economic growth, government can neglect environmental concerns. Integrated Writing: TPO 16
There is a hot topic people discuss whether government should neglect environmental concerns for achieving the ultimate goal to increase economic growth. Different people hold different perspectives. Some people believe that nothing is more important than economic growth so people should take economy as the foremost concern while others hold the positive attitude of environmental friendship. From my perspective, government who neglects environmental protest would be a featherbrain.
To begin with, a swift economic growth must be based on a good environment around. Nobody dislikes a gorgeous landscape, a comfortable house garden, or a tidy street, doesn’t it?! A good surrounding which could be quiet and clean, maybe with flower favor or singing from birds absolutely would attract more people than a smelly and poor place would do. For example, my hometown where locates close to a crystal river intrigues thousands travelers and hikers to come here. I am proud of my town because we have green hills and mountains covered with lush vegetation, and big green canopy with many sorts of birds. In this case, local governor determined to develop tourism there in order to increase the overall GDP of my town. Based on the effective environmental protests and renewable natural resource concerning, tourism has become a major financial resource in my town until today. At least of me, wouldn’t imagine what will change without good local environment.
Moreover, it is unwise decision that government does nothing to awful circumstance. The most direct hurt would be an overwhelmed environmental contamination. Take some examples, an awful air pollution for an unlimited private cars, or messy water or lake pollution for uncontrolled chemistry industry, or a nuclear leakage accident for hasty construction of power plant. For instance, in order to raise income, some local travelling agencies extend animal- hunting times and uncontrolled quantities of hiker or traveler rather than thinking of the landscape's ability of adaptation. At end, the animals have gone away, and splendid landscape and attraction places have become barren while they trampled upon natural green vegetative thousands times more than before. On the other hand, one indirect result will come out if nobody pays attention to condition changing, travelers would not come back any more because there is nothing can attract travelers; local residents also will move to new place as a result of heavy smoking and big noise from around industries. Thus, It is nonsense to develop economy.
Besides, it is reported by American Scientific Magazines that people ability of hearing has impaired by 20 percent than in the past among recent 30 years due to a seemingly uncritical noise pollution which possibly comes from living nearby train station, industry or shopping mall and so on. Thus, to individual, lives in a quiet and comfort neighborhood would be helpful to do his/ her social work better. Both of social development and economy growth must depend on its local residence and constructors, I believe that government see this point clearly.
In general, economy and environment coordinate as a whole. A poor environment causes a barren economy. From history, People are good at tapping surroundings to develop economy, but they are lack of idea and experience to recover environment as it in the past. Government who relies on sacrificing environment only to save economy is really fatuous. Anyway, government should take a long-term look to develop economy and protest local environment. |
