Week 2: Balancing Ecology and Economics

Assalamualaikum, welcome to my blog about ‘Balancing Ecology and Economic’. Now a days economy is flourishing very rapidly worldwide. However, the world is encountering its disadvantages at a same time. Moreover, the stakeholders are only focusing on profit rather environmental destructions which is eventually drowning them in to darkness.

Mushrooming of hundreds and thousands factories show the growth of economy of a country but eventually it is harming the ecological balance around us. Therefore, we are living in a polluted environment which is totally man mane. It is now causing air pollution, sound pollution, water pollution and ultimately turns into human disease. That ends up breathing in a sick environment.

Economic growth needs to be environmentally sustainable. Economic activity threatens the environment, and this is why the situation is worsening day by day.

We need  solutions now to protect the planet. But we need to guarantee a sustainable economy for future generations as well. Environment policy and economic policy needs to be synchronized. Reforms should aims to simultaneously protect the environment and grow the economy.



Some countries needs to address pollution climate change and environmental sustainability. For instance, India, China, Ireland and so on. Other countries like Canada, Korea, Japan, Spain etc are need more environmental taxation. Countries like Germany, Colombia, new Zealand should also invest in better and low public transport.

 

Environment policies can be good for the planet, the  planet, the economy and well beings. People should have their own concern about protecting their environment while flourishing economic growth. Government should take necessary steps to ensure a healthy environment as well. That's all for today. See you next week.
