Yes, economic growth is important for a country but it's not important than ecological protection, we have the example of Delhi, we all know the situation of Delhi's air pollution its PM level is above 200 but for ideal conditions, it should not more than 2.5. It is the worst condition for human beings. It is the high time to open our eyes and should take the steps to protect our environment if we don't it will be too late and soon we will destroy our environment. Recently Stephen Hawking also said that people should leave the earth in next 100 years.

Every nation's strength lies on its human resources and if youths are more it will double the strength.

In this world, only human having consciousness, whatever may the development in technology, unless until it doesn't have consciousness in broader sense knowledge of dharma it is useless. As we are getting frequent news of robot and its applications. Many big factories using robots for industrial purposes, as a result, they are getting more outputs also, at the same we are getting the tragic story of robots malfunctioning. Single command mistake gives the big tragic story. This because the robot doesn't have consciousness. Every country having various activities from sweeper to general manager works. Every area is important, we can't imagine a society without a sweeper.

According to me.

Ecological protection is as much as important as Economic growth. Every one in world is as much as worried about enoviramental protection as economy. Every country is taking major steps to recover their environmental damages that has been done by them.

Because for few years or decade or century, you can worry about your economy but there will be hazards due to environmental pollution. Only one thing can save you from this is your initial steps that has been taken by you in past years or decades or century.

We know we can see the results of our work in economic growth in just few years. But ecological protection takes time to get covered.

Let's take one example of Beijing (China's capital) , it had the worst condition than our delhi in terms of pollution. So they taken various major steps to encounter the condition.

In our India everyone say that world is talking about our economy but they are also talking about our delhi condition. Why invanka Trump was not been in Delhi because of The damn pollution. It was the shame for us that srilankan player had put mask on their face due to pollution. It was the world shame for us.

And what you see that still government is blaming punjab, haryana for the pollution and central government is blaming the delhi government.

And mark my words if condition will not change soon we have to shift our capital some where else.

So for my opinion Economic growth is not more important than Ecological protection. Both have equal importance.

In my point of view, I support for both ecology and economy, because we can't have the right to destroy the ecology it's not created by us. Coming to economy India to be an developed country their should need economy. So it's in our hands to balance ecology and then economy too. If we protect our environment then their will be no need to waste our money for the hospitals. Our motherland and we have the right to protect it and encourage others to do So.

We can't forget the ecological protection while economic growth. Because both are important not one is more than other ones.

Both are essential for our country because if health would be good so economic structure automatically grows with fresh young minds.

And health will be good when the ecological situation is good for our country.

Hello everyone,

Of course, economic growth important even ecological protection but according me it is competitive world each and every human life is not less than a marathon to survive in these competitive world and to compete with the super power nations we don't have an another choice we should destroy nature, of course, no human has right to destroy nature but what we can do our nation has a lot issues from our neighbour countries to face them our economic growth is more important and India is young India where people have lot of dreams to live life like king size based on these conditions like opportunities, technology, threats from neighbour countries economic growth is important means mandatory my conclusion economic growth is important to with little loss in nature because with out economic growth we can't survive in this world as a human even as a country.

Hello,

The very first thing that we have to understand is that the earth is not only for us the upcoming generations also has to live here with happiness. So, its our duty to give the earth to then with the same beauty as how we have received.

It is an unfortunate fact that our generation has made the earth deteriorate this much. The main reason for this is the technological explosion which led to the over exploitation of natural resources.

Competition between countries which had made each of them to assess their quality on the basis of the economic parameters has made them give less importance to the ecosystem.

Finally the only solution that we can suggest is to use some perennial sources of energy and to reduce the use of perishable ones.

Thank you `

Every country is ranked on the basis of its economic status, it's ecological property etc. But which one should be given a preference to another? In my opinion, ecological growth should be a more dominating factor.

Every nation is made of its people, however, the Mother nature and its participants cannot be overlooked- the wildlife, the forests and other natural resources. They have been playing an indispensable role in maintaining equilibrium and allowing us to survive.

Secondly, some of our ecological resources serve as renewable sources of energy- for example, the Tehri Dam in Uttarakhand, which is responsible for providing a large amount of electricity to various states. It itself contributes to the economic growth of our nation.

Moreover, I also feel that having a good ecological diversity near country borders can be an effective shield against terrorists who have a major hand in ruining the economic growth of a country.

Economic growth is a superficial criterion, if there is no ecological protection, there would be an ecological imbalance, and hence a peril to human civilization. When there is no human civilization, how can there be an economic growth?

In fact, I must say that economic growth depends on ecological protection, a hence the latter must be given a higher priority.

I refute the statement that economic growth is more important than ecological protection. Although both are important, ecological protection is far more significant and crucial than economic growth. Protection of ecology is analogous to the protection of our own existence. The Mother Earth is ailing as a result of destruction and imbalance caused by the human beings. The earth has enough to satisfy everyone's needs but not anyone's greed. The need of ecological protection should be felt by each and every person on this planet. As far as economic growth is concerned, economic growth is just an approximate. A high economic growth does not mean welfare of the people. It is more related to increase in output. There is a trade-off between economic growth and ecological protection as more economic growth would also mean deterioration of the environment. A proper balance needs to be maintained so that economic growth is not at the cost of ecological degradation.

Economic growth and ecological growth both are the crucial aspects of the economy of any country. If we are talking about the economy this is related about standard of of people lives in or the trading aspects which is very important to be improved for the betterment of any country.

But when when we do the comparison of both the aspects then we should have to be more focused on ecological growth Because if we are alive then only we should do rest Things. So there is a need better environment for our long living Life.
