Companies generally put the environment before profits. Do you agree? I don´t agree. Just in the last years companies and governments have been more concerned about environmental issues, this because the planet is already very contaminated. People always have been greedy, without environmental awareness. For instance, in my country was very famous a case where a forestry company contaminated an entire lake. The lake used to be beautiful, with a lot of animal life, you could see great variety of birds, but now is all dead, is very sad. When the owners were interviewed by television, they stated that the dead of the lake and animal life was the cost of development, the cost of the progress. Everybody hated them.

I don´t agree. Just in the last years, companies and governments have been more concerned about environmental issues; this, because the planet is already very contaminated.

The lake used to be beautiful, with a lot of animal life; you could see a great variety of birds. But now, it is all dead. It is very sad.

Companies Generally Put the Environment Before Profits. Do You Agree?

 

I don´t agree. Just in the last year, companies and governments have been more concerned about environmental issues, primarily because the planet has already become very contaminated.
People have always been greedy and many demonstrate little environmental awareness. For instance, in my country, there was a very famous a case in which a forestry company contaminated an entire lake. The lake used to be beautiful, with a lot of animal life; you could see a great variety of birds, but now, sadly, all are dead. When the owners were interviewed on television, they stated that the death of the lake and the loss of animal life was the cost of progress. Everybody hated them.

 

Well written, Daniel. I am in absolute agreement with you and hope that this sudden "awareness" is not an example of "too little, too late."

I totally agree with you. And we have to consider also the effects that a bad care of environment has on our health. In my country, in Italy, in the Sud, mafia has hidden a lot of rubbish under the ground, like a lanfill. And the people who live in those areas continue to die of cancer everyday.
