Ielts essay samples band 9

"In light of the current socio-economic situation of the world, do you think this the 
right time for wild life preservation? If yes, what are the ways and means you suggest 
for this?"
 
Model Answer: 
The present day is the age of contradictions of opinions, inventions, and actions. As if 
to exemplify, the civilized man pampers the wilderness while devouring it. But this 
paradox is practically inevitable since we exploit the wild for sustenance and, hence, we 
must sustain it for our continued future. So, regardless of economics or societal factors, 
wild life must be preserved at any and all times. We must conserve, and cohabit with, 
the wild which, in fact, will preserve it in the long run. 
It is true that for us to survive we must exploit the environment and all life in it. So 
preservationist campaigns that suggest leaving the wilderness alone or becoming a part 
of it has not been so popular and viable. A wiser approach is conservation, using the 
God sent resources sparingly like fiscal savings. Being wasteful, in any facet of life, is 
reproachable, and same goes for wild life. If we exploit nature only so economically that 
we obtain our nourishment while keeping her so sound that she continues bearing fruit, 
we will be best off, as not only us, but also generations to come will have sustained this 
way. Being wasteful and destructive will only usurp the natural resources 
catastrophically faster which may cause the untimely demise of all humans. 
Also, if we keep the spirit of harmony and learn to cohabit with wild life, all may live. 
This planet is in fact big enough for sustaining all life. So, being destructive to that 
which does not fight back is foolish, especially when the non-aggressor is our sole 
source. 
To conclude, here, we should never be scrutinizing whether it is the right time for 
preserving wild life because any time is a good time, and, practically, the only time, for 
guaranteeing that nature sustains so that she withholds us and others with nurturing care.
