Cause – Effect Paragraph

Question: What are some of the main catalysts for climate change in your home country?

Review buddy: Li Hui

Recently, the climate change in China is more obvious and execrable. For instance, according to the report, the loss in the snow disaster burst out in south of China lately has preponderated over five hundred billion; while the people in south are fighting against the unexpected snow, the north is suffering from diseases caused by pathogen due to the abnormal warm weather. There are three main causations contributing to the exacerbation of climate. The factor of economics comes first. China is at the stage of changing the economic system from traditional planned economy to market economy, when environment problems are growing more serious than usual, because that market economy pursues to achieve margin as high as possible but ignores the much higher expense paid by the environment. Exempli gratia, some cities would rather tolerate all the pollution in air, water and land by some factories just for the sake of the high margin in economy they bring. Next is the large population China supports. The more people there are, the more resources are needed. Farmland, freshwater, and mineral resources are all presenting a predicament of shortage, which leads to uncontrolled and exorbitant exploitation and utilization. In addition, the consciousness of protecting environment in people’s mind is not clear enough, which means the people lack understanding of the environment problems. If China can carry out some measures and policies considering the causes of environment problems above, the climate, even the whole situation of environment will be proved a lot.
