Band 5+: It is the job of governments and companies to deal with the huge environmental problems of climate change. Individuals on their own can do little or nothing’. What is your opinion about this statement?

Environmental crisis are taking over the world and their scrutiny can not be ignored if not dealt properly as according to the new research, the world will have to bear the consequences in the near future in the form of Global warming. Undoubtedly, political parties and corporate sectors are responsible for taking care of these issues, however, I strongly believe that this pressing problem can be resolved by individuals too considering it a moral responsibility.

Firstly, it is the utmost duty of Government and political parties to try their best to pass the bills that are environment friendly and can reduce the green house effect. For instance, construction companies can be restricted to use only green recycled plastic material to build roads by law and offenders can be dealt very strictly. Similarly, 3Rs (Reduce, Recycle, Reuse) system can be introduced among the country by spreading awareness through advertisements using the bulletin boards, Workshops in schools, colleges and work places and using social media for general public in different languages that are widley spoken across the country including the national language.

Secondly, it is abundanltly clear that individuals can also play a vital role in this regard by not voting for those political groups that are volatile and deprave. It is a moral responsibility of everyone to make sure they support and help in “Go Green” campaign across the country. For example, while shopping or buying groceries, people can make sure to choose environment friendly products or brands to be more inclined in favour of improving our environment. Use of plastic can be minimal by replacing it with other materials like glass or paper to mitigate this issue.

Finally, environment pollution is not only the responsibilty of higher authorities like government and corporates, it is extremely obvious for individuals to play their role for the betterment of our planet so it can be immeasurably beneficial for all of us. In my opinion it is a moral responsibility of individuals to make sure this earth is worth living and we have ample of resources to replace, reuse and reduce to save our environment.
