As governments gradually increase awareness on environment protection and the negative consequence of developing economy at the expense of environment, measures have been taken to reverse the trend of environment deterioration. In my mind, to support the research and development of clean energy is a better option compared with the preservation of natural places and legislation on pollution.
To begin with, one of the reasons why the application of clean energy boasts bright prospect is that it can reduce pollution radically. It is widely known that the burning of coals is responsible for the release of carbon dioxide, the major culprit of greenhouse effect, and other toxic chemical elements causing pollutions, including air pollution and acid rains. What is worse, the pollution knows no boundary and spreads globally. However, Environment friendly energies, like wind power, solar power and water power, generate little pollution, though require much financial support for research and initial installation. When these energies are widely applied by households and especially factories, not only will the total amount of pollutants decrease, the costs will also decline due to the large scale effect. This is surely more effective than enacting laws to restrain companies’ behavior, as it directly helps companies avoid pollution in production.
Secondly, when the technology of environment friendly energy is mature enough to replace fossil fuels, much land will be saved from exploitation. Currently, there are numerous coal mines and oil wells in existence or under construction. For the building of each mine or well, people claim much land in surrounding areas and take away habitats from local plants and animals. Even worse, the pollution caused by exploitation or accidents will deprive much larger area of land and claim more lives in the wild. On the contrary, the development of clean energy imposes much less pressure on local environment. For example, the land occupied by wind farm can be used for grazing cattle. The leasing land for wind turbines allows farmers and ranchers to earn more money. Therefore, with less land used by coal mines or oil wells, more natural placed will be conserved.
To sum up, a better proposal to protect environment is to support clean energy whose wide application can both cope with pollution and preserve natural places.
The government can take a variety of actions to help protect the environment. Which one of the following do you think is the most important for the nation’s government to take to protect the environment:
1 fund the research to develop environmentally friendly energy sources such as solar and wind energy
2 preserve the natural places like forests and protect the animals that live there
3 enforce laws to prevent the pollution of air and water by large companies
