There is no doubt that the prosperation of the human beings is very much related to the environemnt. In order for the human race to continue it's life in the soils of earth, the protection of the ecology system must be a top priority. I therfore think that more investiments should be provided in environment saving efforts than in supporting arts.
When deciding between two options, or tasks to complete, one of the best critera is to make sure the decision is based on the ergency of the two matters one is currently considering. Environmetal issues are hot compared to arts. Considerng the current rate of global temperature climing, and glaciers melting, we may have not much time left. Many species are dissappearing from the face of the earth every minute, according to studies. And with sufficient support and effort, enhancements are possible.
Another reason to support the idea of extra funding to environmental issues is that, from a company's prospective, investing in technologies that save the environment is likely to be lucrative. As more and more people, to be specific consumers, become aware of the environment, they have a desire to make differences by making wise decisions. A wise decision would be somewhat like choosing a product manufactured by a company that is engaged in earth saving efforts. Therefore a company's awareness of environment, could actually serve as a marketing strategy, enhancing the company's image, and in turn it's profitability.
As we all now, the objective of a modern company is not simple. From it's nature, firms should be able to make money. However, as part of the society, they should also be oblighed to deal with concern's of the community. Therefore, if a comany were to choose an investment option between funding arts and supporting the envrionment, it should choose the latter to fullfill its objectives.
