Writing an opinion essay about spending money on restoring local ecosystems

Hiểu bài

Learners classify ideas for or against spending more money on restoration. The table mentions competing investment in healthcare and education, pollution affecting health, unemployment and poverty, disappearing species, forest cutting causing floods and other disasters, and the claim that ecosystems may restore themselves naturally. The writing requires an opinion supported by organised reasons rather than a list. Learners must distinguish an argument’s relevance from whether they personally agree and connect evidence to the proposed spending decision.
