Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but lacks precision and variety. The phrase 'double-edged sword' is a good start, but the rest of the vocabulary is quite basic. To improve, try to use more specific and nuanced vocabulary related to economics and environmental issues. For example, instead of 'affect,' consider using 'impact,' 'influence,' or 'determine.'

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is generally understandable, but there are some errors and awkward phrasing ('affect on our daily lifestyles'). The range of grammatical structures is limited. To improve, focus on using a wider range of sentence structures and ensuring grammatical accuracy. Pay attention to prepositions and verb tenses.
