Some think the current generation should take steps to protect the environment for the next generation.

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

There are a group of people who believe that recent generation should take actions to prevent extinction and damage on the environment to be heritage to the next generation.

In my opinion, this advice is important and I am strongly agree with the sentence above. Human and living creature can not live well without the existing of the environment. Trees in forest or which grow nearby produce oxygen, a molecule that needs by living creature to breath, and there is none in the world can substitute oxygen in our life. Environment also keeps several wildlife animals such as elephant, tiger, monkey and apes, and some exotic birds species. Besides, there are different species of plants hide inside the forest and other type of environment. The richness and biodiversity should be protected and it needs to start from the recent generation to make sure the next generation can see and enjoy the benefit from the similar environment. Its beauty, freshness, and originality are worth to keep for the future age.

However, our nature is already dying and getting less protected year by year. It is very terrifying because some species are already extinct or become endangered species (both animal and plant). Illegal logging, wildlife hunt and trade, and extension of palm oil plantation are few activities that affect deforestation and environment damage. If we do not stop these kind of activities, biodiversity that covered in the meantime can not be accessed and seen by our offspring.

I would like to summarize this essay with a conclusion. We should take actions to stop our nature from damage and try to keep the environment as same as the current situation so that next generation can enjoy the benefit of complete environment from present.
