Technological development leads to a lot of environmental issues. Some people think a simple lifestyle can preserve the environment, while others argue that technology itself can solve it. Discuss both sides and give your opinion.

The world is increasingly defined by and dependent on technology and is adopting more cutting-edge technologies at a breathtaking pace, notwithstanding the reality that technology can have both desirable and unpredictable environmental consequences. In an attempt to curb the ecological issues, some propose a simple lifestyle as effective nature protection while others maintain that the negative impact can be reversed by the technology itself. A thorough examination of both arguments should be conducted in order that the optimal solution is produced.

According to the former side, it is an undeniable truth that the world of nature is better preserved with an uncomplicated living standards, which is substantiated by the virtually pristine condition of wildlife habitat before the era of technology. Another aspect is also illustrated in the area of transport in that the exhaust fumes emitted by modern vehicles have damaging effect on the atmosphere, namely air pollution. Furthermore, there are several newly-invented products, though convenient in use, detrimental to the survival of the ecosystem. To be more specific, plastic bags have claimed thousands of marine lives since their very arrival. Given the proof related to transport, natural habitat and technological products, there is sufficient justification for the promotion of simple ways of life.

Their counterparts, however, express a firm belief in the practical applications of technological advances to resolve the environmental problem, namely air quality improvement and solid waste management. As a result of the breakneck progress in the field of technology, ultra-efficient electric cars with networks of battery-charging stations have been introduced as environmentally-friendly mode of transport without gas emissions, therefore reducing the level of air pollution. In addition, other atmosphere purifying devices are also in use in many megacities with promising results. As for solid waste treatment, the technology has revolutionized the established recycling system by a wide range of novel techniques such as anaerobic digestion, biodrying, gasification to name but a few.

Nonetheless, from my standpoint, despite the mixed environmental impact of technology, it is not a feasibility but a reality that technological area is a great contributor to tackling ecological issues. Additionally, the society is so heavily dependent on technology that there seems little likelihood of abandoning highly- sophisticated devices for the sake of nature in this technology-dominated age. Therefore, it would be advisable for humans to exploit the tools of technology to combat the environmental fight. In other words, the management of environmental problems is a long-term battle in which advances in technology field could play a pivotal part if utilized wisely.

---------------------
Better to have 5 paragraphs with 3 arguments. And try always support/against one side but compare two sides, like this:

para 1: introduction
para 2: reason 1. address both of the views presented for reason 1
para 3: reason 2. address both of the views presented for reason 2
para 4: reason 3. address both of the views presented for reason 3
para 5: conclusion.

So how to find out those reasons. There is a formula:

reasons == advantages or

reasons == disadvantages

for example, we can always apply 'save time', 'save/make money', 'find a job', 'make friends', 'get more information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.

or we can apply 'waste time', 'waste money', 'no job', 'make bad friends', 'get bad information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
