article 4
Sustainable development has become an issue in the past few hundred years. it is human nature to keep on expanding, but we are now beginning to realize that we have a very limited amount of space and resources. There are many different kinds of desirable developments such as economic development and the development of technologies such as medicine. Any people in the world also agree that we should try to preserve the environment. For example, 62% of the people worldwide said that they would with tax increases if the money was being used to help the environment. poverty has also become an issue, the majority of the people agree that unfair treatment by society caused poverty while a small percentage agree that it is their own fault. in other aspects of development, 56% of people believe that science will benefit mankind greatly. I believe that it is very important to promote sustainable behavior because many advancements will help mankind, but we also need to preserve our space and natural resources because those are things that we cannot get back once we run out. I also believe that some advancements are more important than others. for example we sould first work to advance medicine so that many deaths could be prevented.
