提纲:
1. 保护野生地区具有生态价值
2. 保护野生地区具有经济价值(这两者并不矛盾)
3. 对于人及罕见的地方,鉴于其无可估量的潜在价值,更要进行保护
------题目------
Government should preserve publicly owned wilderness areas in their natural state, even though these areas are often extremely remote and thus accessible to only a few people.
------正文------
I strongly agree that government should spare no effort in preserving publicly owned wilderness area in their natural state, for the reason that the wild area does not only contribute to our ecosystem, but also have the economic value. Even these areas which are so extremely remote that we cannot find any ecological or economic benefit there today, we should also protect it.
The wildness areas contribute to our society in two respects. First, the wild area plays an important role in the balance of the earth ecosystem. One important factor of the ecosystem is the species diversity. The wildness areas are seldom impacted by human beings; their sole evolutions endow themselves with specific species which are essential in keeping the ecosystem stable. But as human's power becomes everywhere, these abundant species are in danger unless we preserve these public owned wildness areas. An example is the Madikwe Game Reserve in South Africa. Before the preservation, the wild dog faced with extinction due to the destroy of the natural environment and only exist in Madikwe Game Reserve. But situations have changed after the protection to the reserve, the number of the wild dog increases dramatically and even other districts are reported to have found the valuable wild dog. As a result of the workers' effort, the Madikwe Game Reserve is now the best place to view the Big Five of Africa.Assuming that the species in the reserve were not well preserved, the ecosystem may not be so prosperous today and may endanger our human’s life. In short, preserving the species in the wildness area is preserving the ecosystem, which includes our human beings.
Second, the wildness areas are valuable resources for that they can improve our economy. Not only the rare species in the preserve, but also the ecosystem all together appeals visitor to come and contribute to the development of the economy. Also take the Madikwe Game Reserve for example. It was once an unknown desert land. But after following some ecologists' advices, the government turned it to be the best place for wild animals. Since the visitors vary from the South Africa citizens to international tourists, the local residents build a lot of luxury hotels and restaurants to meet the demands. As a result, the travel industry provides many jobs for the locals and more hope for the poor. From this example, we can found that the wildness areas also have economic values. Moreover, the ecological value and the economic one are not against with each other, the government can make a comprehensive plan to attain the two goals which are beneficial not only to our contemporary society but also to our future. For these reasons, the government should spare no effort to preserve the wilderness areas in their natural state.
Even when it comes to those extremely remote areas which are accessible to only a few people, the government also has the responsibility to protect them. Just because it is difficult for human beings to reach, the species in it should be very rare and its ecosystem is vulnerable to the outside's effect. We should be cautious when trying to approaching these areas, for the reason that one of our small behaviors such as throwing a cigarette may cause a disaster for them. Maybe it is hard for us to discover whatever ecological or economic value they have at present, their potential values is invaluable. Thus, the government should preserve these extremely remote areas for the long-term consideration.
In sum, government should try its best to preserve public owned wilderness areas in their natural state, for these areas will bring about both ecological and economic values to our society. Moreover, even some areas are so extremely remote and could only be reach by a few people, the government should also protect them considering the potential values.
