Environmental protection is better than economic development Debate Draft

The draft of the debate on whether to environment or to develop Yuchang is as follows:

Environment or development? This is an extremely important question for today's society, but it is not a black and white issue. In my opinion, we need to find a balance between environment and development for this issue, and make this balance our goal in the future.

1.The environment is the foundation of human existence

Without the environment, there can be no human development. The environment provides us with the material basis we need for survival, such as air, water, and land. If we pursue development without regard for the environment, we will only end up degrading and deteriorating the environment, thus jeopardizing the survival of mankind itself.

2.Development is the key to social progress

If we do not pursue development, society will stagnate. Development can improve people's quality of life, create jobs, promote economic prosperity, etc. And all of this requires a certain amount of resources and energy, which is why we must develop.

3.What is the real balance?

Environment and development are not opposites, but should be mutually reinforcing. Therefore, we need to pay attention to ecological protection while pursuing development, so as to integrate environmental protection into our development strategy. We need to formulate scientific environmental protection policies so that human development and the ecological environment can promote each other.

Only on this basis can a true balance be reached.

4.For the sake of future generations, we must find a balance

It is our responsibility to seek a balance between the environment and development. We will lose everything if we destroy the environment, but if we do not develop, we will also lose the opportunity to improve society. Therefore, for the sake of future generations, we need to find a balance between environment and development.

To sum up, the need for environment or development cannot simply be "environment" or "development". Therefore, we should actively face this problem, actively explore and innovate, and find a solution, so that our environment and human development can achieve long-term balanced development.

**Publicize. First, from the perspective of human beings' own needs, if human beings give priority to environmental protection, then why should human beings change the environment to meet their own needs from the development to the present?

Second, from the perspective of the relationship between human beings and nature, environmental protection would be meaningless if there were no human beings on this earth, and economic development would be the driving force of human development.

Third, from the perspective of the ultimate goal of human development, if we want to thoroughly solve environmental problems, we must treat both the symptoms and the root causes, give priority to economic development, fundamentally optimize the economic structure, and plug the sources of environmental problems.

Correct. Hello everyone, there is such a publicity photo of World Environment Day, a skinny African girl curled up on the ground, a vulture hovering over it, but she is hungry and weak she has long been unable to struggle, the doom of becoming a vulture dinner has long been irresistible, the theme of World Environment Day that year is poverty and the environment, the picture in our minds makes us have a deep understanding of which priority is economic development and environmental protection, and the pragmatic and rational conclusion can only be that economic development takes precedence over environmental protection. The signs of economic development are the growth of economic aggregate, the optimization of economic structure, the increase of positive social feedback and the improvement of social cognitive ability.

The purpose of environmental protection is to provide environmental protection for the harmonious development of human beings, and we say that the priority criterion is to judge who has a higher priority at the value level under the premise of affirming that economic development and environmental protection are equally important, and we believe that economic development takes precedence over environmental protection.

First, from the perspective of human beings' own needs, if human beings give priority to environmental protection, then why human beings have to change the environment from development to the present to meet their own needs, why human beings will destroy the environment in exchange for the progress of human civilization, when our environmental awareness from "fishing without drying up the water, not burning forests and hunting" to today's harmonious coexistence of man and nature, all prove that environmental protection should serve the development needs of human beings themselves. It is true that we have faced many environmental problems such as climate warming and water pollution, but it is economic development that is related to the survival of human beings, and there are still one billion people living in slums around the world, and there are already fifteen people facing existential threats every minute in our debate arena.

Second, from the perspective of the relationship between human beings and nature, if there are no human beings on this earth, environmental protection will become meaningless, and economic development, as the driving force of human development, has freed us from the ignorance of drinking blood and drilling wood for fire, and has made the relationship between man and nature more harmonious and closer, so that human beings have gradually realized the importance of environmental protection, and formulated a series of measures and legal systems for environmental protection.

Third, from the perspective of the ultimate goal of human development, if we want to thoroughly solve environmental problems, we must treat both the symptoms and the root causes, we must give priority to economic development, fundamentally optimize the economic structure, plug the source of environmental problems, treat the symptoms, and also give priority to economic development, and provide technical, financial and other support for solving the immediate environmental problems. Therefore, we say that economic development, which determines the survival and progress of human beings, has a higher priority than environmental protection, which affects the survival and quality of human beings.

To sum up, we believe that economic development takes precedence over environmental protection. Thank you! Good.

Although my major is in the field of ecology, in fact, I am basically inclined to prioritize ecology, but since it is a debate competition, I can undoubtedly provide some arguments. This debate is still the traditional debate about the comparative level, that is, who is "more" important, so our core argument in this debate is that we do not deny the importance of protecting the environment, and on the contrary, we still actively advocate the protection and development of the environment, but relatively speaking, economic development is fundamental, and economic development is more important than environmental protection.

My personal suggestion is roughly from the following angles: 1. Philosophical perspective, or the fundamentality of the economy, which is the material basis for systematic elaboration, I think this point is basically very easy to clarify, although China has proposed the construction of several major civilizations, and also put forward the concept of ecological civilization, but there is no doubt that economic civilization is fundamental, and it determines other civilizations, which you can collect some materials, and I no longer do. Second, because economic development can be a good development of science and technology, but also to better protect the environment because of the harm of many pollutants, in the original economic conditions can not be treated, such as a lot of domestic sewage discharge, if a city does not have enough funds and technology, then it is difficult to implement a clean cycle of the city, specific can continue.

Third, if the economic development is strong enough, even if the emission of pollution, will not bear a great responsibility for global carbon emissions, basically, now the global carbon trading, such as how much carbon China can produce a year, but because the economic development is relatively fast, we need carbon emission indicators, if there is a certain economic strength, you can buy from other countries, so that the rapid development of the economy is achieved while emitting carbon, which is also based on economic development. This is basically the case, and when refuting the other side, we must remember our argument that we recognize the importance of environmental protection, but only that economic development is more important, and so on

The following aspects are discussed:

1. Environmental protection optimizes the living environment, improves people's health, and promotes economic development; (From a social point of view, the eight major public hazards can be cited as negative examples).

2. Environmental protection improves the ecological environment, improves the stability of the natural environment, reduces the intensity and frequency of natural disasters, and reduces economic losses caused by natural disasters; (From the perspective of the natural environment, from the example of global warming).

3. Environmental protection improves the value of natural resources, reduces production costs and improves economic benefits. (From the perspective of raw material cost, i.e., economy, the protection and utilization of drinking water resources can be used as an example).

The draft of the fourth debate should be completed according to the first draft of the debate. It is necessary to consolidate and sublimate the argument one by one. Du briefly drafted a few articles.

Thank you, judges, and thank you, Chairman. First of all, please allow me to point out a few mistakes that occurred in the previous rounds of verbal warfare

Let me summarize my views. First of all, you can't have both, an important indicator of economic development is carbon dioxide emissions, and as we all know, carbon dioxide is also the culprit of the greenhouse effect, there is no effective solution for carbon dioxide emissions, so economic development and environmental protection can not be both; Secondly, economic development needs the necessary raw material support, timber and minerals are necessary raw materials, and the cutting down of trees and mining deposits will cause damage to the environment. Finally, economic development itself is a process in which human beings transform nature, use nature, and compete with nature for the earth, so it is bound to harm the original natural environment, and the two things cannot go hand in hand.

To sum up, we insist that economic development and environmental protection cannot go hand in hand.
