ACT Success - Writing / Essay - Practice #5

With the growing urgency of climate change, individuals are increasingly encouraged to adopt environmentally sustainable behaviors, such as reducing waste, conserving energy, and using renewable resources. However, some argue that while individual actions are important, meaningful progress can only be achieved through large-scale policy changes and corporate accountability.

Perspective One: Individual actions, such as reducing plastic use and driving less, are essential in combating climate change and should be the primary focus.

Perspective Two: Climate change cannot be solved by individual actions alone; only governments and corporations have the power to make a significant impact.

Perspective Three: Both individual actions and systemic changes are necessary to address climate change, as one without the other will lead to limited progress.
