Recently, global warming becomes more and more obvious. To protect out habitats, our government must take some actions.
Our government should control the population. As the population keeps increasing, more and more natural resources are needed. The increasing demand causes significant effect to the climate. For example, more food means more farmland. As the currently existing farmlands are insufficient, more forests are likely to be converted to farmlands. Forests are ideal natural appratus to absorb green house gases, such as carbon dioxide. Nevertheless, forest devastation helps green house gases to survive and global warming to flourish. Moreover, a large amount of trees will be cut to build houses as the population increases. Actually, our government has already established some policies to reduce the increasing of our population, such as the one-child policy.
Furthermore, our government ought to emphasize on improving energy-using efficiency and researching on renewable resources. The traditional fuels produce lots of green house gases, like carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide. By improving the efficiency to use them, the amount of green house gases will be reduced to a large extent. What's more fascinating, green house gases will not be produced at all if some advanced technologies are developed. For example, water is the only gas that will be generated if hydrogen is used as fuel. Unfortunately, this kind of technology is not mature enough at this stage. Thus, the government should encourage the development of new technology.
Lastly, the government should balance between economy and environment. Economic benefits should not be the only goal that the government pursues. Some economic growth is at the price of environmental damage. The losses on environmental damage we will endure someday may outweigh the economic benefits we obtain currently. If the temperature continues increasing, the sea level will keep rising. People live in Shanghai and Beijing will become refugees in the near future. More than 60 million of people will be displaced. What a tragedy! To avoid tragedies like this, some strategies need to be considered. For example, the pace to develop heavy industry may be slowed down; some mine exploitations need to be prohibited.
All in all, the government is responsible for lessening the global warming, for us, and for our offsprings.
Hi Ryan,
回复删除I agree with your ideas and view points.
It would be better if you leave a line empty before a new paragraph as it would make reading easier.
Your last point meantion there about the government is responsible for lessening the global warming, we cannot just say its the government job. Its a problem involving all country and every country's government should do something on a large scale where everyone agrees to it.
