Is pollution a necessary evil?

First of all, pollution is toxic to all living things on earth. The fact that we inhale this type of air is highly dangerous and it can affect us tremendously. If you look around the city we live in now versus the city 100 years ago there would be a drastic change because back then, not many people can afford cars so they took the train and rode bicycles to their destination . Nowadays, 1.2 billion people drive cars . There are about 7.2 billion people in the world, imagine how much gas consuming vehicles are around us… people that are sixteen years old are already driving and so are the elderly… but we don’t notice how serious pollution is.The fact that trees are cut down just so people can construct new homes for humans causes homes to be destroyed for the wildlife , like squirrels and birds along with other small creatures that are underappreciated . These animals are still living things like us, how would it feel if animals were ten times larger than us and dominated our world, we would probably all be dead by now, they would destroy our homes and rip our limbs apart and though I have to say that it’s bloody, but don’t we deserve it for being so crucial to them?

Water inhabiting animals must hate us too. The air makes the water toxic which ruins the atmosphere for their homes and soon when the pollution affects us and we see how disgusting we are to mother nature, we will realize that we are imbeciles for letting this happen to the animals and us. Global warming will rise and soon it will be so hot that we will all be fried by the sun and the greatest seas and oceans would dry up and it will be the great extinction for homo sapiens .When the air is containing deadly chemicals, oxygen will be limited because the trees would be sick and dying. The crops that are planted by farmers will wither and die due to the water that will be contaminated and even if they didn’t die, we would because we are the ones eating all the chemicals and who knows, our stomachs may explode.

What I’m going to talk about next is slaughterhouses which aren’t related to pollution but I feel like it is needed to be talked about. I’ve always loved animals they are extremely fascinating and majority of them are friendly if you are no harm to them, and for all these years, I’ve eaten meat and I do regret it more than a lot. If you watch how animals are killed for their meat I guarantee you, you will fall off your chair to the ground and bawl your eyes out. I hate how these animals are treated, is their suffering really worth a slice of bacon, or a chicken nugget that is over processed anyway? Animals have feelings too , but the babies are separated from their mothers, who are ready for what they have lived for their whole entire lives, they’re ready to die for their meat . Animals. They aren’t garbage, you don’t just throw them away like that and you definitely don’t treat them that way. They’re one of the most beautiful things in the world in my eyes and to see them in so much pain really , really breaks my heart. The way how people enjoy abusing them like that makes me extremely vexated because it is sadistic of them to do that. And I’d also like to mention poaching. I highly disagree with poachers because they take animals such as elephants and rhinoceros for granted just because they have humongous, ivory tusks and kill them for it. Look how big these animals are, they must be a few tonnes so wouldn’t it take more than a dozen bullets to put them down? So I will say this again and a billion more times. Animals are NOT toys and you don’t have the right to throw them around!
Back to the pollution. Therefore, pollution is technically evil since it can destroy so much of our world. We can reduce pollution by using electric powered cars and taking the bus, carpooling and walking or biking. We are an eco school and I don’t think we are inspired or care enough to take a second glance at how messed up the world is right now, and besides everyone still litters, even I do and sometimes I think “Wow, you’re so stupid, why did you just do that?” The thing about humans is that we don’t think twice before we do something and our careless mistakes are why the world will end. Let’s think twice and do something right for once!
