Example 1: Pollution is the greatest problem created by people People’s opinions on the subject of global problems differ widely. Some people think that pollution is the most serious of all, while others believe that people have created more important crises. Let us discuss who is right. It is my firm belief that pollution is the biggest problem that the world is facing today. Firstly, it is almost impossible to cure the planet from pollution, because the latter results in destroying the atmosphere and hydrosphere. Secondly, pollution affects not only human but also animals and plants and may lead to a total extinction of all the living things. However, there are opponents of this view who say that people have created more serious crises since they kill valuable species of animals for money and cut forests, creating a lack of oxygen. They do not care that destroyed nature is impossible to restore. I strongly disagree with this opinion because it is common knowledge that killing animals and plants is being highly restricted and reduced step by step, in contrast with pollution which is spreading farther and farther. Taking everything into account, I would like to repeat the problem of pollution is the biggest in the world. Although somebody may think that people have created more important problems such as endangered animals and plants, pollution definitely outweighs other crises. I hope my arguments are convincing enough and time will prove that I am right. 235 words
