环境雅思大作文双向论证
There is no doubt human society is faced with serious environmental problems and immediate measures should be taken to solve these problems. However, what role ordinary people should play in environmental protection is a topic of debate.
毫无疑问，人类社会面临着严重的环境问题，应立即采取措施解决这些问题。

然而，普通人应该在环境保护中发挥什么样的作用是一个有争议的话题。

Some people think that the power of the individual is too small and the solution to environmental problems lies with the government and large enterprises. If the government can use legal and administrative power to curb environmental pollution, the effect would be significant. For example, it is common practice for some factories to discharge waste water into the river. If the government could enact strict laws to punish these factories, this kind of irresponsible behavior would be reduced. Also, the government and enterprises can invest in developing new technology to reduce the impact on the environment, which cannot be done by individuals.
有人认为个人权力太小，解决环境问题的办法在于政府和大企业。

如果政府能够运用法律和行政权力来遏制环境污染，其效果将是显著的。

例如，一些工厂通常将废水排入河流。

如果政府能颁布严厉的法律来惩罚这些工厂，这种不负责任的行为就会减少。

此外，政府和企业可以投资开发新技术，以减少个人无法完成的对环境的影响。

However, some people believe that individuals also have an important role to play in improving the environment we live in. the power of one person seems t be minimal, but with millions of individuals taking action, the effect would be huge. For
instance, if every person can save a glass of water, the total amount saved would be considerable in a city with millions of people. Another example is air pollution in cities, which can be effectively tackled by encouraging people to use public transport. If individuals can give up driving private cars, the air quality would be obviously improved.
然而，有些人认为，个人在改善我们生活的环境方面也有重要作用。

一个人的力量似乎不是最小的，但随着数百万人采取行动，效果将是巨大的。

例如，如果每个人都能节约一杯水，那么在一个拥有数百万人口的城市里，节约的总量将是相当大的。

另一个例子是城市空气污染，可以通过鼓励人们使用公共交通来有效地解决。

如果个人放弃私家车的驾驶，空气质量会明显改善。

In my opinion, protecting the environment is an urgent and long-term task that takes the effort of every member of the society. The government plays a leading by making policies, enforcing laws and organizing campaigns. Individuals can also make their contribution by doing small things in their daily lives.
在我看来，保护环境是一项紧迫而长期的任务，需要社会每个成员的努力。

政府通过制定政策、执法和组织运动发挥领导作用。

个人也可以通过在日常生活中做一些小事来做出自己的贡献。

1. Individuals can do nothing to improve the environment. Only governments and large companies can make a difference.
1。

个人对改善环境无能为力。

只有政府和大公司才能发挥作用。

To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?
你在多大程度上同意或不同意这个观点？
2. Environmental problems are too big for individual countries and individual people to address. We have reached the stage where the only way to protect the environment is to address environmental problems at an international level. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
2．环境问题太大，个别国家和个人无法解决。

我们已经到了保护环境的唯一途径就是在国际上解决环境问题的阶段。

你在多大程度上同意或不同意？
审题要点：
关键词：environmental problems/individual
主要从两个方面论述完成此文章：
1. 环境问题人们无能为力
2. 只有个人的努力，环境问题才能得到改善
参考思路：
Para 1:开头段引入
Para 2: 先承认，某些环境污染问题人们无能为力
1) 自然灾害造成的环境污染：全球变暖／洪涝／酸雨
2)某些人为活动所造成的大范围污染：漏油事件／雾霾天气
Para 3:但是只有个人从不同角度做出努力，环境污染状况才能得以改善
1) 提高环保意识
2) 改善日常习惯：多使用公交而非私家车／多用环保产品而非高碳产品／回收利用等
3) 完善环境监督机制，提供舆论监督平台
Para 4: 结尾段总结
Some people think environmental problems are too big for individuals to solve. Others, however, think that those problems cannot be solved unless individuals take some action. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
有些人认为环境问题太大，个人无法解决。

然而，其他人认为，除非个人采取一些行动，否则这些问题是无法解决的。

讨论这两种观点并给出自己的观点。

We are confronted with a wide range of environmental challenges today. And there is a heated debate revolving around the issue of whether individuals could play significant roles in improving environmental conditions. In my
personal view, only if individuals take some actions could environmental contamination be effectively alleviated.
今天我们面临着各种各样的环境挑战。

围绕个人能否在改善环境条件方面发挥重要作用这一问题展开了激烈的辩论。

在我个人看来，只有个人采取一些行动，环境污染才能得到有效缓解。

Admittedly, it is reasonable for some to argue that this problem is too big for human beings to resolve. First of all, fighting with such natural disasters as flood, earthquake as well as tsunami may be beyond the ability of average persons. Despite of those, some humanity destruction is also unreachable for citizens. For instance, oil spill always lead to a large scale of suffocation for marine lives; besides, smog, which hover over and around metropolis cities in the past several winters has already cause respiratory diseases.
诚然，有些人认为这个问题太大，人类无法解决是有道理的。

首先，与洪水、地震、海啸等自然灾害作斗争，可能超出一般人的能力。

尽管如此，一些人类的毁
灭对于公民来说也是无法达到的。

例如，石油泄漏总是导致海洋生物大量窒息；此外，过去几年冬天在大都市上空和周围徘徊的烟雾已经引起了呼吸系统疾病。

Nevertheless, others assert that unless we human beings take some actions, the pollution of our surroundings could be a chronic issue to cope with. And there are lots of actions we might probably adopt. First and foremost, it is possible for citizens to enhance awareness of being friendly to their living places. Since consciousness is one essential element which dominates people's behaviors. Besides, the second step is to change the daily habits, one of them is that people could use public transport instead of private cars; what is more, the avoidance of disposable products and high-carbon products would also be a good choice. Followed by the above
measures is the modification of public supervision on the well-being of our environment, which will not be perfected without encouraging every citizens to voice their opinions towards some issues.
然而，也有人断言，除非我们人类采取一些行动，否则我们周围环境的污染可能是一个长期需要解决的问题。

我们可能会采取很多行动。

首先，也是最重要的一点是，公民有可能提高对其生活场所友好的意识。

因为意识是支配人们行为的一个基本要素。

此外，第二步是改变人们的日常习惯，其中之一是人们可以使用公共交通工具而不是私家车；此外，避免使用一次性产品和高碳产品也是一个不错的选择。

其次是对我国环境福祉的公众监督的修改，不鼓励每一个公民就某些问题发表意见，这是不完善的。

In a nutshell, even though battling against natural disasters and large scale man-caused damages may seem an impossible task for individuals, efforts and attempts are still integral part of the aim to create a better living environment for themselves by adopting some small steps.（351）
简言之，尽管抗击自然灾害和大规模人为破坏似乎是个人不可能的任务，但努力和尝试仍然是通过采取一些小步骤为自己创造更好生活环境的目标的组成部分。

Ironically，we, human beings, are now facing a series of environment-related issues ranging from various contamination to global warming to the depletion of natural resources although our economy keeps on prospering. As to how to address environmental issues, an opinion seems to enjoy great popularity that personal efforts are too trivial to optimize our living surroundings, however, the issue is surely relevant to each individual citizen.
具有讽刺意味的是,我们人类现在面临的一系列环境问题,从各种各样的污染,全
球变暖对自然资源的消耗,虽然我们的经济继续蓬勃发展。

至于如何解决环境问题，一种观点似乎很受欢迎，认为个人的努力微不足道，
无法优化我们的生活环境，然而，这个问题肯定与每个公民息息相关。

No matter how small personal involvement in environmental conservation might be, it is the unshakable obligation of every individual to safeguard the environment. The amelioration of the environment should and could be realized by every kind of little effort. A number of examples might justify my stand, instead of depending on private cars excessively, the public should be inspired to take public transit, walk on foot or ride bicycles, which could mitigate the pollution induced by public transport. Imaginably, we could enjoy a cleaner and quieter environment if there are few vehicles on the roads. Meanwhile, provided that we have to utilize personal cars, it is highly recommend that we should purchase and drive compact cars or
full-cell-driven cars.
无论个人在环境保护方面有多小，保护环境都是每个人不可动摇的义务。

环境的改善应该也可以通过各种各样的努力来实现。

许多例子或许可以证明我的立场，而不是过分依赖私家车，公众应该受到启发，乘坐公共交通工具，步行或骑自行车，这样可以减轻公共交通带来的污染。

想象一下，如果道路上没有车辆，我们可以享受更清洁、更安静的环境。

与此同时，如果我们必须使用个人汽车，我们强烈建议我们应该购买和驾驶紧凑型轿车或全电池驱动的汽车。

Also, raising the environmental protection awareness and fostering eco-friendly lifestyle should be advocated among every individual. More precisely, we could reduce the frequency of use of paper and do more on-line reading, we could visit places of interest close to home instead of traveling far away to remote tourist attractions and we could save electricity and cherish water such as turning on the air conditioning only when we have to, or turning off water tap tightly.
同时，应该提倡提高环保意识，提倡环保生活方式。

更准确地说,
我们可以减少纸的使用频率和做更多的在线阅读,我们可以参观名胜古迹在家附近而不是遥远
遥远的旅游景点去旅游,我们可以节约用电,珍惜水,如打开空调只有当我们必须,或者关掉水龙头。

Granted, I have to admit that some severe environmental pollution, such as global warming or sea contamination, might fail to be resolved only by personal effort. In this sense, the role of governments in environmental management is challenging but inescapable because the government is the only legalized institution that may formulate legislations related to environmental problems. However, I want to rebut that without the cooperation, participation, and honest hard work of every individual, every governmental policy relating to greenism will end up becoming useless and meaningless.
诚然，我不得不承认，一些严重的环境污染，如全球变暖或海洋污染，可能无法通过个人努力来解决。

从这个意义上说，政府在环境管理中扮演的角色具有挑战性，但不可避免，因为政府是唯一合法的机构，可以制定与环境问题相关的立法。

然而，我想要反驳的是，如果没有合作、参与和诚实的努力，每一个与绿色主义有关的政府政策最终都将变得毫无意义和毫无意义。

Overall，I re-affirm my stand that no matter how tiny personal efforts might be, they still work. After all, governmental policy depends on the implementation of every eco-friendly person. The earth is our shared home and every one of us should assume the responsibility of safeguarding it, not only for ourselves but also for the later generations.
总而言之,我重申我的立场,无论多么微小的个人努力,他们仍然工作。

毕竟，政府政策取决于每个环保人士的实施。

地球是我们共同的家园，我们每个人都应该承担起保卫它的责任，不仅是为了我们自己，也是为了子孙后代。

Some people think environmental problems are too big for individuals to solve. Others, however, think that those problems cannot be solved unless individuals take some action. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
有些人认为环境问题太大，个人无法解决。

然而，其他人认为，除非个人采取一些行动，否则这些问题是无法解决的。

讨论这两种观点并给出自己的观点。

It is true that our tiny individual actions often seem in significant compared to the scale and complexity of global environmental problems such as pollution, deforestation and depletion of natural resources. But that does not relieve our duty as individuals to do as much as we can to deal with these problems.
的确，与诸如污染、森林砍伐和自然资源枯竭等全球环境问题的规模和复杂性相比，我们微小的个人行动往往显得意义重大。

但这并不能减轻我们作为个人尽可能多地处理这些问题的责任。

Individual actions, small as they may be, can prove more effective than we realize. We can avoid driving the car, and take public transit, walk, or bicycle instead. This will reduce the use of fossil fuels and cut pollution. Saving energy at home, like turning on the air conditioner only when we have to, or turning water heater down a few degrees, is also ultimately good for the environment. Individual actions can also turn into united powers when, for example, the whole neighborhood is mobilized to participate in a local campaign to oppose environmentally damaging policies.
个人的行动，尽管很小，却比我们想象的更有效。

我们可以避免开车，改乘公共
交通、步行或自行车。

这将减少化石燃料的使用，减少污染。

在家里节约能源，如只在必要时打开空调，或将热水器调低几度，最终对环境也有好处。

例如，当动员整个社区参与一场反对破坏环境政策
的地方运动时，个人行动也可以变成统一的力量。

There are, however, obstacles that stand in the way of individual action towards environmental conservation. The first obstacle is the lack of professional knowledge needed to cope with serious environmental issues like soil erosion and salinity, which require a significant amount of investigation and research. Another obstacle which makes individual action almost impossible is when an environmental emergency or accident happens, e.g. an oil spill near the border line, which would necessitate government intervention or even international coordination.
然而，有一些障碍阻碍了个体对环境保护的行动。

第一个障碍是缺乏处理严重环境问题（如土壤侵蚀和盐度）所需的专业知识，这需要大量的调查和研究。

另一个使个人行动几乎不可能的障碍是当环境紧急情况或事故发生时，例如靠近边界线的石油泄漏，这将需要政府干预，甚至需要国际协调。

So, in conclusion, when it comes to environmental problems, individual actions are indispensable in the problem solving process. But the most pressing and complicated problems go far beyond an individual’s capability and so require the concerted effort of the government as well as the global community.
因此，综上所述，在解决环境问题的过程中，个体行为是必不可少的。

但最紧迫和最复杂的问题远远超出了个人的能力，因此需要政府和全球社会共同努力。

Some people think that the environmental problems are too big for individuals to solve. Others, however, believe that the problems cannot be solved if individuals do not take some actions. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
有些人认为环境问题太大，个人无法解决。

然而，也有人认为，如果个人不采取某些行动，问题就无法解决。

讨论两种观点并给出自
己的观点。

Nowadays, there is a heated debate about whether individuals should take actions to solve environmental problems. Some people claim that the environmental problems are so big that individuals can do nothing to improve the environment and only governments and large companies can make a difference. However, others hold the opposite opinion that individual actions, small as they may be, are also crucial to improve the environment, so each individual should take some actions. otherwise, the problems cannot be solved.
如今，人们对个人是否应该采取行动解决环境问题展开了激烈的争论。

一些人声称环境问题太大，以至于个人无法为改善环境做任何事，只有政府和大公司才能做出改变。

然而，另一些人则持相反的观点，认为个人的行动虽然小，但对改善环境也是至关重要的，因此每个人都应该采取一些行动。

否则，问题就无法解决。

As we all know, there are some environmental problems which are indeed too big for individuals to solve. For example, in face of climate change such as global warming, individuals can do little to fight against it and only the governments have the ability to de al with it. What’s more, to solve some environmental issues even need international corporations. If mass water pollution is caused by oil spill in Pacific, it will be urgent for different countries to make joint effort to clean it. In this case,
individuals have neither the professional skills nor the power to confront it.
众所周知，有些环境问题的确太大，个人无法解决。

例如，面对全球变暖等气候变化，个人几乎无能为力，只有政府有能力应对。

更重要的是，解决一些环境问题甚至需要国际公司。

如果大量的水污染是由太平洋的石油泄漏造成的，那么各国就必须共同努力进行清洁。

在这种情况下，个人既没有专业技能，也没有权力去面对它。

Although it is very difficult for individuals to solve those big
environmental problems, individuals still can take some actions to make a difference. Actually, individuals can do many small but powerful things to help to improve the environment, such as garbage sorting before throwing away, refusing to use disposable chopsticks and so on. Environment protection is not such a big issue that individuals can do nothing. It is very practical and needs each person to participate.
虽然个人很难解决这些大的环境问题，但个人仍然可以采取一些行动来做出改变。

实际上，个人可以做很多小而有力的事情来帮助改善环境，例如垃圾分类前扔掉，拒绝使用一次性筷子等。

环境保护不是一个大问题，个人无能为力。

这是非常实际的，需要每个人参与。

To put it into a nutshell, solving environmental problems need joint effort of both governments and individuals. Everyone should be aware of its importance, be a responsible one and take practical actions. Only in this way can environmental problems been solved effectively.
简而言之，解决环境问题需要政府和个人的共同努力。

每个人都应该意识到它的重要性，成为一个负责任的人，并采取实际行动。

只有这样才能有效地解决环境问题。

I. Introduction：交代问题
1.文章背景：从全球范围来看，环境恶化已经成为了21世纪最严重的挑战之一。

Globally, environmental degradation has been recognised as one of the main challenges that people have to overcome in the 21st century.
2.交代问题：尽管媒体不断宣传，但是今天的人们似乎仍然很少采取切实行动来保护环境。

Despite the widespread media coverage, few people actually take any practical measures to protect the environment.
3．正文结构：本文旨在探析这种现象的原因，并且给出解决方法。

This essay aims to explore the underlying factors contributing to
this phenomenon and present
some responsible solutions.
II. Body 1：原因
1. 个人：个人往往人为自己的力量过于渺小，因此往往对环保采取消极态度take a pessimistic view towards environmental protection.
2. 政府：缺乏相关的立法，对破坏环境的行为惩处不力。

缺乏激励机制，很难鼓励民众进行环保活动。

3. 社会：现代生活对物质的过分追求导致人们过多选择了高能耗、一次性等不环保的产品energy-wasting and disposable products，例如大排量汽车cars with high discharge volume，一次性的饭盒与筷子disposable lunchboxes and chopsticks 等，导致了资源的浪费和环境的污染。

III. Body 2：解决方法
1. 政府1：制定严格的法律和法规严惩破坏环境者。

The government should constitute more rigid laws and regulations to punish those who pollute the environment.
2. 政府2：通过对高能耗、一次性产品征收高昂的税收，减少人们的选用。

Heavy taxation can be imposed on high energy-wasting and disposable products, in order to discourage people from using them. 同时补贴环保产品，鼓励人们垃圾分类。

Meanwhile, the government should subsidise environmentally friendly products, and encourage people to classify household garbage to facilitate waste recycling.
3. 媒体：通过做公益广告public service advertisement，多举办环保活动launch environment campaigns，向公众宣传，个人的力量积少成多就可以发挥很大的力量。

Many a mickle makes a muckle.【谚语】
IV. Conclusion：?1. 重申问题：环境恶化如果得不到妥善解决，将会给人类的将来生存构成巨大的威胁。

If not solved properly, the
rapid environmental deterioration may pose a huge threat to our survival in the years ahead.?2. 总结方案：因此，每一个人都应该为保护环境承担自己的应尽的责任。

Therefore, every citizen should shoulder their own share of responsibility to protect the environment.。
