Environmental problems are so big that they cannot be solved by any person or country alone. Instead, it should be solved at international level. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this view?

Environmental degradation has been regarded as one of the main challenges that should be overcome in the 21st century. The rapid deterioration of environment is believed to have posed a serious threat to our survival. To address this concern, countries worldwide should join forces, instead of working individually for their own targets.
There are two reasons why people support international cooperation. The first point is that the impact of environmental problems is normally on a global scale. It is common knowledge that we share the same biosphere, whose components are interrelated. For example, a stream in a country may be polluted by the sewage dumped by its neighboring country. In other words, the effort of one country may be futile if other countries are not involved. It should be noted that some nations do not have adequate resources, such as capital and technology, to reduce pollution, even if these countries have realized the importance of environmental protection. Then, these countries can cooperate with developed countries, introduce technologies and draw on their experience so as to implement environmentally friendly policies continuously.
Despite the importance of international cooperation, individual countries should take the initiative to implement some change. It is fair to say that countries are confronted with different environmental problems. For example, greenhouse gas emissions in China are mainly created by electricity generation industry, while those are primarily attributed to the increase in automobiles in America. The technologies and methods that are globally applicable may not be effective in some countries. Besides, every country should enforce some environmental laws and raise people’s awareness so as to restore the environment better.
In sum, countries ought to make a joint effort not only because the ecosystem is a unified mechanism but also because it can make optimal use of financial and human resources. In addition, countries’ resource commitment is also important at regional or national level.

December 15, 2022 at 1:37 amEnvironmental degradation has posed a serious threat to our survival. Therefore it is imperative to overcome this challenge in the 21st century. To achieve this goal, countries should join forces, instead of working individually for their own targets.
There are two reasons why people support international cooperation. On one hand, the impact of environmental problems is normally on a global scale. Clearly, we share the same biosphere, whose components are interrelated. For example, if a river in a country were polluted by the sewage dumped by its neighboring country, the effort of one country would be futile without the involvement of its neighbor. On the other hand, some countries have realized the importance of environmental protection, but do not have adequate resources, such as capital and technology. Under this circumstance, these countries can seek to cooperate with developed countries by introducing technologies and drawing on their experience.
Despite the importance of international cooperation, individual countries should take the initiative to implement some changes. Countries are usually confronted with different environmental problems. For example, greenhouse gas emissions in China are mainly created by electricity generation industry, while those are primarily attributed to the increase in automobiles in America. The technologies and methods that are applicable in China may not be effective in the USA.
In sum, countries ought to make a joint effort not only because the ecosystem is a unified mechanism but also because it can make optimal use of financial and human resources. In addition, countries’ resource commitment is also important at regional or national level.
