air and water pollution essay ielts

Causes and Solutions to Air Pollution (IELTS Writing Task 2)

Maria - / 1096   Nov 16, 2019   #2 @rose427 Hi. Welcome to the forum! Good luck with your IELTS tasks; I hope this feedback helps you. While I appreciate the straightforward and shortened approach to the introductory paragraph, I find that it lacks briefing the readers on what to anticipate. Here, you should also incorporate what the core attributes of your writing will be. Put down here as well a single core value that you believe will be the cornerstone of the rest of your writing. Tackling the body paragraphs themselves, try to be more specific with what you need in the written text. The conclusion should also be given more attention than this. What you can do is to omit the usage of repetitive sentences when explaining (ie. take a look at the third sentence of your third paragraph). This will give you more space to discuss things that are actually important for the rest of your essay.

Band 5+: Many countries are experiencing serious problems with their environment, with pollution of their land, water and air. What are these problems and how might they be reduced?

Many countries are experiencing environmental problems, and this is damaging them in many bad ways.

One of the many ways it’s damaging the country is deforestation. At first you might think it is not that big of a problem, however if forests are cleared they release carbon dioxide. In fact 10% of global warming is caused by deforestation. Deforestation also leads to another problem, which is air pollution. By cutting trees we do not only limit the amount of oxygen but we also increase the amount of carbon dioxide. Air pollution can also cause heart diseases, lung cancer and even chronic respiratory diseases.

The other problem is land pollution. This can affect our lives in so many harmful ways. One of which being agricultural problems. If we do not have sustainable land for growing crops and other goods needed for us humans to survive we won’t last long. The other problem we are faced with is too much trash. Even nowadays I can barely walk in some places due to the high amount of pollution.

Even though all these problems may sound overwhelming there is always a solution. To start with, some forests should be endangered. For air pollution we can start fining companies which put out way too much greenhouse gas emissions, and as for the land pollution we can basically do the same.

To sum up, many countries are faced with these difficulties, however if we start taking action to prevent furthermore problems we can reduce them.

Ielts writing task 2: full essay.

Usually I suggest writing 4 paragraphs for task 2. However, sometimes it might be better to write 5 paragraphs. The following essay question has three parts, so I've written three main body paragraphs (5 paragraphs in total).

Explain some of the ways in which humans are damaging the environment. What can governments do to address these problems? What can individual people do?

Humans are responsible for a variety of environmental problems, but we can also take steps to reduce the damage that we are causing to the planet. This essay will discuss environmental problems and the measures that governments and individuals can take to address these problems.

Two of the biggest threats to the environment are air pollution and waste. Gas emissions from factories and exhaust fumes from vehicles lead to global warming, which may have a devastating effect on the planet in the future. As the human population increases, we are also producing ever greater quantities of waste, which contaminates the earth and pollutes rivers and oceans.

Governments could certainly make more effort to reduce air pollution. They could introduce laws to limit emissions from factories or to force companies to use renewable energy from solar, wind or water power. They could also impose ‘green taxes’ on drivers and airline companies. In this way, people would be encouraged to use public transport and to take fewer flights abroad, therefore reducing emissions.

Individuals should also take responsibility for the impact they have on the environment. They can take public transport rather than driving, choose products with less packaging, and recycle as much as possible. Most supermarkets now provide reusable bags for shoppers as well as ‘banks’ for recycling glass, plastic and paper in their car parks. By reusing and recycling, we can help to reduce waste.

In conclusion, both national governments and individuals must play their part in looking after the environment.

Note: This essay is exactly 250 words long. I've tried to make it as simple as possible, but it's still good enough to get a band 9.

Hi, Simon It is really a fantastic essay. It is a simply great. I have one question like You have just written only one sentence in conclusion, that is excellent without doubt, but do we need to tell something about first part of question like some of the ways in which we are damaging the environment? or it is alright to mention only about solutions from government and individuals in conclusion? please do not mind, I am just asking not assesing your work.

Thanking you,

Posted by: Jay | August 18, 2010 at 13:56

I´m glad you like the essay. Don´t worry - your question is really useful.

You are right that it would be a good idea to mention the problems in the conclusion as well as the solutions. However, this wouldn´t change your score. The conclusion is much less important than the main body paragraphs. If you´re in a hurry at the end of the exam, a one-sentence conclusion will be fine.

All the best,

Just thought i would let you know how i went in my IELTS exam.

Got my results on 16th August. I got L8,R9,W8 S7.5. I am happy overall, but disappointed with speaking. My examiner was very unfriendly. She did not smile even once during the exam. I had feeling that i was talking to the brick wall. Very unpleasant experince indeed.

Well, it is all over now.

Hi, Simon. i have a question" Is it Ok if I use the following template in answering the problem-solving type of questions ?

A little background + In this essay, I would like to analyze the reasons for this problem and propose some possible solutions.

I am not sure if I can use the " I would like to " structure in this IELTS writing.

Posted by: adverb | August 23, 2010 at 11:42

Yes, it's fine. Personally, I'd just write "I will" (I'd probably use "I would like to" at the start of a spoken presentation) but it's not wrong.

All the best

Hi Vishaal,

You can mention global warming, but you don't have to. The question just says "explain some of the ways..." so you can choose which problems to discuss.

Posted by: Simon | February 21, 2011 at 11:05

hi simon The world’s human population has passed 6 billion and continues to increase. The growth in the human population and the increase in the standard of living are putting strains on the global environment. what do u think, is it good introduction for this essay?

You've got the right idea Julia.

Posted by: Simon | August 16, 2011 at 15:58

Can i ask you what kind of essay is this??????????

Posted by: wael | November 09, 2011 at 17:49

We call this a "problem / solution" question. You have to explain the problem (damaging the environment) and suggest solutions (what can governments and individuals do?).

Posted by: Simon | November 10, 2011 at 10:58

People are harming the environment in many ways because lack of awareness or negligence. As a result many negative consequences like global warming, landslide are happening. In such worsening condition the government and individual must take action to solve the problem.

The main reason of the environmental pollution is increasing trend of transportation and industries. The smokes from the vehicles are the main reason of the environmental pollution in major cities like Kathmandu. These old vehicles emit harmful chemicals and gases like nitrogen oxide and carbon monoxide, which are harmful to living beings and also destroys the earth protecting ozone layer. In addition the chemicals are being highly used in the industries; as a result those harmful chemicals are left into the rivers and land, which is being the major cause of water pollution in Kathmandu. And the usage of plastics and plastic products cannot be neglected. The government must organize awareness programs for public. People must be aware of the causes of environmental pollution; so they could avoid mistakes in the future. In addition, the government should take action immediately to stop deforestation by strict law and monitoring. Furthermore, sewage management is the biggest problem in Kathmandu Valley, it should be well organized. Moreover, law in the sector of industry and transportation should be implemented strictly. On the other hand, individuals should take responsibility to save own community. Firstly they need to keep their own society neat and clean. In addition waste management should be considered seriously. Secondly they need to think of alternative natural resources rather than using chemicals like bio gas, solar energy. To sum up, pollution in environment is increasing day by day in most of the part of the world. So, governments and public should join hands together to solve the problem.

I would be really grateful, if anyone could point the problem in my essay?

It is true that people are the major cause of environmental consequences. To maintain the damaging environment governments and individual people should work together to overcome the problem. Human are destroying the environment in several ways. Firstly, human made factories, industries and vehicles are the major causes for air pollution. The emission and exhaustion of fumes from industries and vehicles are destroying the ozone layers. For instance accumulation of carbon dioxide in the environment is creating the global warming. Secondly, people are cutting trees for land and furniture. Such deforestation of rainforest is the major cause of flooding and droughts. Finally, people are using non-biodegradable plastic bags for packing of fast food and many various consumer products. That is also another considerable factor. Governments must make strict law to protect the environment. They need to limit the emission of harmful chemicals by industries and vehicles. Promoting public transport, trains can be the better solution to reduce increasing transport pollution. Condition of vehicles must be assessed properly very often. Moreover, public awareness campaign can be fruitful to aware people about serious issues like global warming. Along with governments, individual people should take this case seriously. They can use public transportation rather than using single private car for office and other works. They also have to use less flight for holidays to protect the environment. In addition they can plant some trees in their garden to make environment green. Using biodegradable bags like paper bags can help to reduce further damaging of the environment. In addition, they can make rubbish bin to separate different types of waste in their home. In conclusion, humans are mainly responsible for damaging environment. So, government and individual people should collaborate to protect from further destruction.

hi simon Can I improve my ielts writing ability by memorizing your essays ?

Posted by: wzheng | October 27, 2013 at 03:39

Here is my first two paragraphs, wish someone who can see it give me some comments. Cheers!

Recent years, many examples of extreme weather such as the snow in the North America and the flood in the Pacific countries alert the awareness of the public. Many human activities should take the responsibility for the environmental problems and it is necessary to figure out solutions both from social and individual perspective.

The main reason causing environmental problems is the traffic. Numerous cars running on roads generate tons of carbon dioxide which is a major component of the greenhouse gas. The emission of carbon dioxide along with other incomplete burning gases from the exhaust tube can prohibit the earth’s heat losing. As a result, the inevitable temperature increase will lead to the world climate change.

Dear Simon,

I have a question regarding the fourth paragraph of this essay. In the second sentence , you used "they" to address "individual people", while in the last sentence, "we" was used instead.

Does it mean that in this kind of essay, "we" and "they" can be used interchangeably?

To what extent do you agree or disagree? I couldn't find any ideas what to write about. Please advise, if I'd used ideas from your essay above, would I answer the question of my topic? thank you in advance

In this tutorial, we discuss Pollution IELTS Topic Ideas, grammar, vocabulary and sample answers.

Table of Contents

Introduction, grammar point covered, pros and cons regarding pollution, topic specific vocabulary collocations and phrases.

• Model Sentences Using Pollution Phrases and Grammar Point

Model Essay About Pollution

Speaking part 3 questions and model answers, further reading.

Pollution, a pressing issue affecting our planet, requires immediate and extensive action. This article will provide an in-depth exploration of pollution, its impacts on society, a critical grammar point and related vocabulary, as well as model answers for IELTS writing and speaking tasks.

The focus of our grammar is on writing sentences that imply a position on a topic rather than explicitly outline the position. This indirect method allows for nuanced expression and can demonstrate a higher level of language ability. Here are some example sentences about pollution:

• Given the alarming rate of climate change, one might surmise that stricter pollution controls are needed.
• The increasing incidence of asthma suggests a link to pollution.
• The declining bird population could be seen as an indictment of our pollution practices.
• From the smog hovering over cities, it would not be unreasonable to deduce a pressing need for cleaner technologies.
• Considering the rise in oceanic dead zones, perhaps we ought to examine the role of pollution in aquatic ecosystems.

Please note that no argument can genuinely be in favour of pollution. However, some arguments might downplay the urgency of addressing pollution, highlighting potential challenges or costs of intervention.

• Pollution often correlates with industrial growth and development.
• Overcoming pollution requires a significant investment in research and development.
• Allowing pollution via loser regulations may encourage economic growth.
• Pollution contributes significantly to global warming.
• Various forms of pollution lead to health problems, such as respiratory and cardiovascular diseases.
• Pollution negatively impacts biodiversity.
• Pollution can harm local economies that depend on clean environments, such as tourism and fishing.
• Pollution affects the aesthetic appeal and quality of life in residential areas.
• Air Quality Index
• Carbon footprint
• Eco-friendly practices
• Greenhouse gas emissions
• Non-renewable resources
• Ozone layer depletion
• Renewable energy
• Wastemanagement
• Water contamination
• Wildlife conservation

Model Sentences Using the Pollution Phrases and Grammar Point

• Considering the rapid ozone layer depletion , one might argue that more emphasis should be placed on eco-friendly practices .
• Air Quality Index readings in many cities suggest an urgent need for better waste management practices.
• The rise in greenhouse gas emissions could potentially be curbed by a global shift towards renewable energy .
• The increasing use of non-renewable resources hints at a need for greater innovation in sustainable technologies.
• The state of our rivers and oceans, marred by water contamination , might prompt a call for improved regulation of industrial waste.

One of the most alarming threats humanity faces today is the overwhelming degree of pollution . This essay will discuss the detrimental impacts of pollution on our planet and suggest possible solutions to this pressing issue.

Body Paragraph 1

Pollution , manifesting in several forms such as air, water, and soil pollution, has detrimental impacts on both human health and the broader ecosystem. The Air Quality Index of many urban areas, for example, implies the severe health risks posed by polluted air. Besides human health, wildlife is also adversely affected, with water contamination leading to a reduction in aquatic biodiversity.

Body Paragraph 2

In light of these issues, it becomes evident that robust measures are needed to curb pollution. Transitioning to renewable energy sources, implementing stricter waste management policies, and promoting eco-friendly practices can substantially reduce the harmful impacts of pollution. Though these changes might require considerable effort and investment, the potential benefits to our environment and future generations are undeniable.

In conclusion, pollution is a severe issue that requires immediate and comprehensive action. As stewards of the earth, it is our responsibility to adopt sustainable practices to ensure the well-being of our planet.

Why do you think pollution has become such a significant problem in the modern world?

Well, to be honest, I think it’s largely down to industrialisation and the consumer-driven society we live in. We’re using non-renewable resources at an alarming rate, which contributes significantly to pollution. It’s like we’re on a runaway train* , and we need to find a way to apply the brakes.

* runaway train : A situation that’s out of control and will probably lead to trouble.

Should governments be held responsible for addressing pollution?

I believe so, yes. Governments have the power and resources to enforce regulations on industries contributing to pollution . For instance, they could incentivise eco-friendly practices and invest in renewable energy .

What are some measures individuals can

take to reduce pollution?

I’m not an expert on this, but I guess reducing, reusing, and recycling waste is a good place to start. Also, switching to renewable energy sources and reducing our carbon footprint can make a significant difference. As the saying goes, “every little helps.”

How has the situation regarding pollution changed from the past, and what do you foresee for the future?

In the past, the effects of pollution were not as widespread as they are today. As far as I know, if we continue down this path, the future seems quite bleak. But I’m optimistic that if we act now and embrace sustainable practices, we can improve the air quality index and ensure a healthier planet for future generations.

Is pollution a significant issue in your country?

Yes, unfortunately, pollution is a considerable problem in my country. Water contamination is particularly concerning due to improper waste management practices. However, there have been initiatives promoting wildlife conservation and environmental cleanliness, which is a positive step forward.

• BBC News: What is pollution?
• National Geographic: Pollution
• Wikipedia: Pollution
• US Environmental Protection Agency: Pollution
• World Health Organisation: Air Pollution

Why don’t scientists trust atoms?

Because they make up everything, even pollution!
