Dear Tom:
our school hold a heated debate some days ago, we students have different attitudes towards the problem whether we should develop our economy or preserve our environment .
Some students hold the idea that we should attach great importance to the environmental preservation and we should try to cut back on production and reduce the amount of things we make and buy. To begin with, factories poured industrial waste everywhere. As a result , it has caused the great death of animals and plants . The second is that the waste they create goes into the atmosphere and makes people sick . In addition , many sea creatures are being wiped out by we human beings. What’s worse, the population, whose figure is now approaching 6.5 billion , is becoming larger and larger. And it means we need more land to live on and more food to eat .
However, the others state that a healthy environment and a stable economy should be possible at the same time. First of all , people are more important than fish and trees. If we cut back on the amount of things we produce, many people may lost jobs. Moreover, the people running the factories are very concerned about the environment ,and they are very careful to spend money repairing any damage they cause. Thus, we need to stop thinking of them as our enemies. Besides, we can take some effective measures . For example, we can produce more things from recycled materials ; we can introduce laws to preserve the environment ; We can ask the factories which pollute the environment to pay higher taxes as well.

what I’m here to say is that both environment and economy are of great importance to us. I do agree when we develop our economy , we should pay great attention to our environmental preservation . If so, we can build a harmonious society .
