Hello everyone, in my point of view economic growth and ecological protection are two leaves of the same branch. We can not accept just one of them by neglecting another one. The Economy is the fuel of a country. Economic growth states the production (agro and industrial) , the better living condition of citizens, health, education, employability. Where ecological protection defines protecting the nature for making this world a better living place for not only human but also other creatures on earth. So for making a better economy, we cannot destroy the nature by polluting it constantly. Using the earth's natural resources especially as fuels to our industry, we come to an alarming level to use these anymore. Global warming is the main concern of all the countries worldwide. India plays a vital role in thus regard. All the countries now shifting from fossil based fuel to renewable energy source. We are using sunlight as a major source of energy recently. This also creates a big scope for new industries. We are trying to convert all power generation systems to run by solar power. Govt has taken various steps toward this. Because the growth of a country is only possible if this earth remains as a place to habitat. Continuously using earth's resources and polluting the land and river makes this world a worst place to live. The Level of carbon mono oxide gas in the air has increased at such a dangerous point that people especially children are suffering from various heart and lung disease. Smog has become a common feature of all metro cities around the world. Villages will no longer safe from this unless we stop right now. If we cannot live in this world then what is the use of economic growth or making luxurious products.

Hello everyone.

Economic growth and ecological protection are two sides of a coin we should not neglect any one of these. Both are equally important for the development of our country. Economic growth means development of our country which includes better education, implementing smart cities, industrial revolution etc. Whereas in other hand ecological growth means we have to preserve the flora and fauna, forests. Where we have to make our nation better place for their livelihood. Economic growth leads better employment opportunities boosts our economy at the same time we have to contribute to the ecological protection which reflects our tradition and culture etc.

Hence, I conclude that economic growth and ecological protection should be equally balanced.

Thank you.

In my view, Economic growth and ecological protection both are important at their own place. We can't succeed without economic growth. Economic growth brings prosperity and peace in our life. It simplifies our life. But it should not be done without caring our ecosystem. Because our ecosystem is equally important to us. It maintains a balance between different forms of lives. Therefore, we should grow without harming the ecosystem. This is called sustainable development.

To achieve this, we can use non-conventional sources of energy such as wind energy, solar energy, nuclear energy. They don't harm the ecosystem and also fulfil the power needs of the humans. We can switch to electric vehicles such as an electric car, bike, train etc.

Hello everyone.

Ecological as well as economical growth holds importance for a country and none can be ignored. However, if we are made to choose for one, I would definitely like to urge to go for ecological development before trying to achieve Econmic development. Why I am saying so because economic development depends partly on ecological development as well. If our ecological balance disturbbs it will definitely affect in economic perspect. So, I think we should go for ecological development first.

In today's era, Economic development is more important because it is a source of all concern like poverty, unemployability, education etc. Side by side we have to create such an environment which does not need any kind of protection by utilising innovative ideas of science and techs like Non-conventional sources of energy and its demand of time also. Thanks.

Economy will progress only when the people are there to support and experience it.

For people to support and experience the economic growth, ecology should exist.

For ecology to exist we need innovative ideas in field of agriculture and science.

It is reported India heading for massive economic growth but are we really supporting the agri sector.

Buildings, statues and malls are built by cutting down large scale of trees.

This results to massive ecological imbalance, i.e. no rains hence drought which in turn farmers to commit suicide.

As I said earlier when homo sapiens do not exist, then what is the benefit of economic growth.

India is dependent largely on its own agriculture, which in the name of economic growth is being destroyed.

My motto will be or our I would say everyone's motto should be.

"Save Ecology, Save Economy".

Economic growth is as important as ecological protection is we can't undermine anything if we don't develop economically we can't survive in the world due to lack of money and if we don't develop ecologically nature would not allow us to survive.

Hello, everyone.

As per my view, I think ecological protection is more important however economic growth is also important for the development of mankind but while focusing on economic growth one should always remember that it should not go beyond the limits. In today's time, global warming is another big issue to discuss as its created due to urbanisation & technological advancement. Our governments should give more priority for ecological protection as it will save natural resources that is required for the existence of human civilisation.

Hello, everyone.

In my opinion, economic growth and ecology go hand in hand.

A proper economic growth of the nation is only possible if we utilise all the resources available in a sustainable and efficient manner. Jeopardising the natural balance just to accomplish short term economic goals is not only reckless but has severe effects for future generations.

So, ecological protection ensures a long term and steady economic growth of a nation along with a sustainable environment for our future generations.

These are my thoughts on this topic.

Thank you.

Hello, guys.

According to my point of observation,

Both the things that is of ecological as well as an ecosystem are hand to hand like things. And all the countries whether it is developed one or under developing countries, both used to maintain this hand to hand which I mentioned.

Where ever this balance fluctuate then as a resultant that particular city is effect by the ecological system.

As we look after the Delhi,

There it is a unbalance of economic growth with the ecosystem. That is economic growth is exceeding the ecosystem usage. Because of which government is having a formula like odd and even.

Recently Delhi government had a compulsion to the class rooms that they must have air purifiers in their classrooms. This all the stuff they are doing just to maintain this hand to hand thing balanced.
