Some people should spend as much money as possible exploring outer space(for example, traveling to the Moon and to other planets). Other people disagree and think governments should spend this money for our basic needs on Earth. Which of these two opinions do you agree with? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.

     I’m quite sure that there are many people who will say that the government should spend more money on exploring outer space which includes traveling to space and to other planets. However, I have a different view. By examining that we should spend more money on public places, we should invest more money on the biotechnology and support people who are suffering and dying from poverty, and we should take more actions to preserve the environment on Earth, it is clear that the government should spend more money for our basic needs on earth.

     To start with, these days, people want to have a better atmosphere and environment around them. Public places are something that many people use together. At this point, we can say that public places should be often checked out to see whether they are giving the benefits to people effectively. Public places include parks, public washrooms, libraries, and so on. To provide more profits to people, it should work properly as it was expected to when they were first made. To do this, more money should be spent on it.

     In addition, I personally think saving people’ lives is more important thing than getting information and knowing more about outer space. Many people are dying because of diseases. To prevent this, more money should be supported and spent to investigate the causes of diseases and to find out what medicines can treat the detrimental diseases such as AIDS. Furthermore, many people are dying because they have nothing to eat. Especially, many African people have difficulties surviving because they don’t have something to eat to fill their stomach. It will be more beneficial for world to support money for those who are dying from poverty than traveling to outer space.

     Most importantly, there are many harmful phenomena that are now being happened such as global warming, smog, land pollution, water pollution due to a polluted environment. I think we’d better put our money into preserving environment clean and fresh. We are living in the Earth and Earth is like our parents who take care of us and raise us. In this regard, it is not acceptable that we harm the environment of the Earth and make Earth dirty. This can mean that we harm our parents. Of course there should be more policies that can help preserve the environment. Also, It is obvious that there should be more money spent to preserve the environment more effectively.

     All in all, I admit that exploring outer space to know more about the outside world is also important. Despite that, I think we should use our money more effectively for the public places, biotechnology and for the people who are suffering from poverty, and preservations of the environment which are all supporting our basic needs on Earth.
