Answer to Problem 24.1CTDQ

Protecting the environment too much is not a dangerous thing at this time in the history. No one should be able to destroy the environment on behalf of another because it is something that everyone shares. The government regulations were justified by preserving them for future generations as they also have a right to fresh air and clean water.

Explanation of Solution

Environmental protection is a method by which the natural environment gets protected for the benefit of humans and environment. The environment should be protected as it is the key element for human health. The environment is being degraded day by day due to the pressures of population and technology.

Environment is a concern for every person on the globe. But the control of its protection can be a little saturated for the people as well. The reinvention of modern technology in order to fight the increasing requirements for the harmful effects of global changes in the environment can be of great concern. Technology is something that everyone was fond of but now-a-days it has become a necessity. One cannot move forward without the help of technology.

Government regulations like the use of cleaner fuels in order to decrease the amount of environmental pollution is becoming very difficult now-a-days. This is due to the cleaner fuels that do not make good contribution towards the growing needs of the population. The government should be clear about the economic conditions and people also need to focus on the environment to make changes in the constitution and society in order to make a harmony between the government and the citizens.
