art or environment?

Frankly speaking, both art and environment are the most important things for human beings. But, if I want to choose which one is more vital than other, I absolutely choose the environment. However, art is one of the best forms of recreation that can calm emotion of people and help them to improve the quality of life, but I think that environmental issues are more urgent and essential for human life. There are numerous reasons to bolster my point of view. In the following paragraphs, I will explore a few primary ones.

In the first place, I would like to emphasize that the most important subjects which scientist concern about it is the possibility of human life in future. There is no doubt, all of us are aware of the harmful damages which humans consciously or unconsciously have inflicted on the earth. Humans are considered the most intelligent of species due to the their advanced and complex brain. Otherwise, they are also the most selfish from all of the creatures. Mankind during their life has done a lot of damages to the environment due to his selfish activities for having the comfortable and convenient life. For instance, deforestation in a large scale to build dwellings or structures has distracted the balance of ecosystem. Or consuming numerous natural resources without regarding the fact that whether these remain resources can meet the needs of our descendant or not. Hence, it is time for us to rectify these damages before it is too late and human beings encounter with serious problems in future.

Besides, the other issue of concern which is vital for human is depleting ozon layer in Antarctica due to the human interference. Using a lot of chemical material for having the better conditions of life has had damaging effects on ozon layer. 

Therefore, due to its damages, harmful Uv ray of the sun can reach the surface of the earth directly and causes skin cancers and other mortal diseases. Hence, attention to this phenomenon should be set in the primary policy of each countries.

To put in briefly, from the reasons which I mentioned above, we could say that however, art is a very important aspect of human life, but the environmental issues are more serious, and need more money than art do. Consequently, governments should promote the protection of our environment by donating funds generously and organizing campaigns to undo the harmful actions that we have done.

In 1881, a new type of weed began spreading across the northern Great Plains. Unlike other weeds, the tumbleweed did not spend its life rooted to the soil; instead, it tumbled and rolled across fields in the wind. The weed had sharp, spiny leaves that could lacerate the flesh of ranchers and horses alike. It exploited the vast area of the plains, thriving in regions too barren to support other plants. With its ability to generate and disseminate numerous seeds quickly, it soon became the scourge of the prairies.

To present-day Americans, the tumbleweed symbolizes the Old West. They read the Zane Grey novels in which tumbleweeds drift across stark western landscapes and see classic western movies in which tumbleweeds share scenes with cowboys and covered wagons. Yet just over a century ago, the tumbleweed was a newcomer. The first sign of the invasion occurred in North and South Dakota in the late 1870s.

Farmers had noticed the sudden appearance of the new, unusual weed. One group of immigrants, however, did not find the weed at all unfamiliar. The tumbleweed, it turns out, was a native of southern Russia, where it was known as Tartar thistle. It was imported to the United States by unknown means.

Frontier settlers gave the plants various names: saltwort, Russian cactus, and wind witch. But botanists at the Department of Agriculture preferred the designation Russian thistle as the plant’s common name. However, these botanists had a much harder time agreeing on the plant’s scientific name. In general, botanists compare a plant to published accounts of similar plants, or to samples kept as specimens. Unfortunately, no book described the weed and no samples existed in herbaria in the United States.
