বিতর্ক প্রশ্ন

Why do আপনি think it is that a lot of people honestly don't care about the environment?

(I'm aware that a lot of people do care about the environment - there are plenty of organisations dedicated to helping with different aspects of our natural environment, as well as scientists that dedicate their time and money to research, which is hugely beneficial and could solve many of the world's problems. But, what I don't understand, is why so many people don't care about the place they live... That they just get দ্বারা each day, without even realising that they are also contributing to a small portion of the world's environmental problems. So, what do আপনি think?)

Well there are various reasons for why that is...

Greed runs the world. There's just some people out there that couldn't care less about what they're doing to the Earth as long as they end up with a good profit. Some people simply don't realize the effect they have when they throw trash out into the street, অথবা if they use too much electricity. Either that অথবা they just don't care because decades from now when the Earth could be ruined, all our resources could be used up, and even the air might not be নিরাপদ to breath, they will already be dead. It wont affect them, so they don't care. They selfishly don't care about the future generations who are going to have to suffer through our mess.
অথবা they simply don't think they can do anything to help, so they just don't even try. They don't realize that something as simple as turning off the lights when not using them, taking showers instead of baths, walking অথবা riding your bike, using paper instead of plastic ect. can do significantly a lot.
অথবা they are blind and think we have plenty of resources and that there's nothing wrong অথবা out of balance with the environment.

We live in a world where people would rather breath polluted air than to add a few মিনিট to their commute দ্বারা walking অথবা cycling.
I find it beyond disturbing.

Hmmm, your answer is very similar to how I feel. I know people have varying opinions on this matter. Personally, though, I feel that it is mostly due to human ignorance/stupidity and greed/selfishness. And, yes, I agree... It is disturbing - Very much so, in fact.

I think it's because people don't realize that every time they litter, they could cause serious harm to their future. They know they're harming the environment, but they don't think that they'd be hurting the lives of others দ্বারা making the future a worse place to live. They think that the resources that they have now will probably last for another million years, which is very untrue. And of course a lot of people just don't care much about anything. That's just how some people are.

Yes, that's certainly one point I was expecting to hear. I do agree. দ্বারা the way, I didn't ask the প্রশ্ন because I don't know, I'm just interested in what other people think about it... I'm trying to put as much effort into finding out about environmental problems as my time constraints will allow... One দিন I hope be a successful advocate for the protection and well-being of Earth's environment and organisms.

Good for you. Here at প্রথমপাতা we recycle a lot, aluminium and paper being the most common thing to recycle. It's a shame people don't recycle as often as people litter.

Yes, we do that here, too - metals, cardboard, paper, and newspaper, along with old newsletters and other such stuff. Oh and especially plastics and anything else that could potentially be recycled.

I'll lend some credence to the opposing viewpoint - it's because they're আরো concerned with the direct impacts than they are with what is still largely uncertain worries about what might happen if we spew an indeterminate amount of greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere. Lets face it, there's a lot we don't know about what's going to happen, when and how it will happen, and how close we are to it now. Nearly every climate scientist agrees that greenhouse gasses create a harm, but the number of confounding factors is immense and we can never account for every variable. So they make assertions about what methane and carbon dioxide do, all true, and then when no one sees a direct impact, they often stop caring. Most people's foci are on their day-to-day, and an impact they can't see nor fully understand is not on শীর্ষ of their তালিকা of concerns.

But, I'm not referring to global warming here... I'm talking about problems that are widely recognised over the world... Like deforestation, sustainability, energy, land degradation, littering, recycling and even lesser problems like erosion.

Well, we agree there. Sorry for the omission.

Lol, no problem. This is the বিতর্ক club, after all. I know আপনি definitely wouldn't be able to let me off without a good debate. XD

I kind of think it's due in part to sheer ignorance অথবা possibly the belief that a single person can't make a difference so they don't even try. It's not that they don't care it's that they aren't aware. It's that they've হারিয়ে গেছে hope and feel a bit powerless.

Well... In that case, I wonder what the people who understand and care about the environment can do to প্রদর্শনী other people that the আরো people that, the আরো chance that we can solve the problem...?

That's a good question. Actually these people are advertising it আরো and what not. One of my পছন্দ shows as a kid, Winx, was being remade. One of the underlying themes in season 5 is 'go green'.

That's true. It's the little things that count and make larger impacts.

Some people don't care about the environment. The government does not care about the environment. The government only cares about money so they can be rich. Caring for the environment is far আরো important than having money. What the heck! We can save the earth together. We can stop global warming. We can help the poor. We can যোগদান world vision. We are caring for the environment!
