Some people think that human needs for farmland, housing, and industry are more important than saving land for endangered animals. Do you agree or disagree with this point of view? Why or why not? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. The life of every living creature is threatened by what human beings have done to planet earth. It seems that the industrialization has overstepped the boundaries of modernization in a way that the warning bells are ringing to give an alarm about the imminent threats which have entered the whole world into a danger zone. While some believe that it is necessary to use every possible source on earth for human purposes, I am of the opinion that lands should be preserved for species whose existence is fraught with perils, because they maintain the ecological balance, bring great benefits to medicine and agriculture and hold an aesthetic value. First of all, the world is facing one of its great challenges through the history of planet earth, acknowledging that what is happening to the vast majority of species is a catastrophic consequence of human’s activities. For example, as the pace of deforestation picked up, there was a rise in the overall temperature of the earth’s atmosphere and ocean water which made the living conditions hard for corals whose oxygen-emitting process is vital for the whole ecosystem. Therefore, by destroying animals’ natural habitat and upsetting the environmental balance, the global warming issue continues to worsen. Moreover, animals were an inseparable part of humans’ lives in a way that they played a prominent role in advancing medicine and sustainable agriculture. Every advance in medical science, from antibiotics and vaccines to antidepressant drugs has been achieved through the use of animals in laboratory experiments. Chimpanzees and orangutans who enlarged scientists’ understanding about humans’ mind and body are on the brink of extinction. Besides, as a result of spraying crops with pesticides, the number of bees has decreased dramatically in some places to one-sixth which could be detrimental for to the food industries. As a consequence, by losing such organisms, humans’ survival would be threatened in one way or another. Finally, the beauty of nature is partly defined by these creatures and their unique features. What is has been known for centuries is that many animals developed humans’ aesthetic sense, which could be seen from painting their figures on the cave walls by primitive people to sculpting their statues in various architectural styles. As a result, being in nature and watching what these living things contribute to their environment could work as a medicine for those who are overwhelmed by daily stress. To sum up, I believe that it is our moral duty to save lands for endangered animals. I suggest that governments should impose a harsh punishment for on those who only consider their own benefit without being concerning concerned about other living creatures. In this way by preserving lands, a balance in the ecosystem would be maintained, next generations would be safer in living peacefully and people could still enjoy the beauty of wildlife.
