▶ Your Answer : Some people might think that the government should pay more attention to environment issues than health care ones. However, in my opinion, it is much more important for the government to pay more attention to environment issues rather than to health care ones. This is because environmental pollution nowadays are occuring aroud the world in a very large scale, and to solve the environmental problems, huge support from the government is inevitable.
To begin with, recently, the environmental pollutions have been occuring around the world in a very large scale. The degree of present environmental pollution is very serious, given the fact that relatively small number of cities of few countries in the world had been suffered from environmental pollution around the Industrial Revolution. Starting from about 2013 or 2014, throughout online articles or mass media broadcastings, people could have seen that many cities, including Tehran, New Delhi, and Beijing, have beensuffered from huge degree of sever air pollution. The dust particles, called PM2.5, had been existed for days or weeks in the cities, and according to the broadcastings or articles of mass media, many people started to get sick due to sever air pollution in the cities which they had lived and some of the schools in the regions declared that they would not open their schools for days because of severe air pollution. And these pheonomenon contributed that Paris Climate Accord are adopted at the international conference with numerous countries around the world, including developed countries.
On top of that, environmental problems can only be solved with the support from the government level. While health care problems can be prevented by relativerly inexpensive methods, such as promoting to the public about the importance of keeping cleanliness of oneself or how to prevent certain diseases, environmental ones cannot be solved at the individual level. Severe air pollution which have been occuring around the world and a huge amount of plastic waste which are gathering in specific regions in the world and cover the rivers or sea, cannot be solved without the support from the governement. For example, numerous countries in the world, including developing countries and developed countries, such as United States and France, had felt the necessity of gathering the support from all over the world to solve the severe air pollution having occured in the world. They discussed about the seriousness of air pollution around the world and agreed to keep Paris Climate Accord which was made at the international conference. The accord was made since, without the wide range of the effort of numerous countries in the world, it is very difficult to solve environmental pollution. Considering this fact, solving environmental pollution cannot be achieved at the individual level, but should accompany a lot of support from the government.
To sum up, environment pollution have been occuring in the world seriously, and it cannot be solved without the assistance from the government level. In this regard, I think that the government should pay more attention in solving environmental problems than in solving health care ones. |
