【TOPIC】
Agree or disagree: Human societies will always have a negative effect on the environment
【解答例】
I disagree with the opinion that human societies will always have a negative effect on the environment and I have three reasons for that.
First, there are some cases in which human beings have succeeded in improving the environmental conditions. For example, in some part of Afghanistan, people have irrigated and planted trees in the desert areas, making it possible for them to live in those previously unlivable places.
Second, human beings are highly aware of environmental issues threatening their lives. Many people regard environmental problems such as air pollution, global warming, and deforestation as urgent problems against which to take immediate action, so that they are making great effort to solve them as quickly as possible.
Finally, there is a strong possibility that modern technology will have a positive effect on the natural environment. For instance, within a few decades, by using our genome editing techniques, we are very likely to be able to revive some plants and animals which became extinct many millions of years ago. This is not only a great advance in science but also a good thing for the environment.
For these three reasons, I do not think human societies will always have a negative influence on the natural environment. (205 words)
