economic growth vs environment


As we know the worldwide economy is growing very fast. This growth is affecting the future of our planet and us.

Economic growth is very important for every country without the development they will be poor countries. When the country is developing, it provides employment opportunities for many people because there will be many companies and factories. Also, people like to be in developed cities so they can achieve their ambitions and dreams. Also, people like to live in a developed country that provides health care for them and their children. Also, people like for their children to grow up in a richer environment and be in a good schools and universities.

On the other hand, our environment is more important for us. But it is changing while we are developing. These changes are affecting us also. Many scientists believe that climate change is a threat to the future of the planet. As we know the amount of carbon dioxide emissions is increasing dramatically because of the factories and companies. This leads to global warming. This mean the climate will be very high in some places than others. Also, the sea levels are rising because of melting ice in north and south poles which leads to other things like floods. Another thing that happens when the climate changes is drought. Many people are dying for these things.

In conclusion, I think that economic growth and environment are very important for us. But we should not damage our environment and try to make economic growth that helps the environment.
