▶ Your Answer :
The author contends that a nation should
implement laws to protect a natural environment. I agree so far as a lot of
inventions and medicines which are useful for people came from biodiversity in
nature. However, the following essay will argue that why this may not always be
the case with considering the development industry in a nation.
Admittedly, the author’s assertion that
preserve natural environment has positive effects on science and technology. In
the wilderness area, we can find diverse animals and plants. Such biodiversity
improves science and technology through motivating scientists to utilize the
typical features of nature creatures like the shape of dolphin or plant seeds. Biomimetic
is one of the methods to invent convenient and creative products by imitating
animal’s behavior or plant’s feature. Velcro is a great example of biomimetic
invention which imitates plant seeds. Furthermore, a lot of medicines came from
nature. Through mixing and dissolving material from plants, thousands of
pharmaceuticals have produced. To be specific, in Amazon, we can find valuable
plants and animals for people.
However, our logical thinking allows us to
believe that the author’s assertion to prevent development of the wilderness
areas may not always be warranted. Factitious environment for human such as
buildings and highways cannot coexist with intact nature. For example, if one
city needs to build an airport in order to provoke economy activation, it is
inevitable to destroy the city’s nature like a forest. Especially, in China, rapid
developments of industry and economy are occurring within five decades.
Unfortunately, the rapid developments always bring environment pollutions and
destroy nature. Although it is fact that development has harmful effects to
nature, a city cannot prohibit to build a new facility and develop an industry
on certain important condition for citizen.
In conclusion, while the author’s claim
might seem beneficial in certain conditions, in light of above counter points
that nature cannot coexist with factitious environment, the author’s claim
cannot be agreed in full. |
