IELTS WRITING TASK 2 - shortage of fossil fuel

1.Some people believe that the shortage of fossil fuels will lead to the replacement of alternative energy like solar system and wind. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

We were brought up to believe that the earth is generous to us. However, gone are the days that people could squander resources at their will, especially those unrenewable energy like fossil fuels. Accordingly, it is collectively believed that alternative energy will replace fossil fuels in the future. This argument will be analysed in terms of scientific evidence alongside the merits of new energy.

To begin with, researchers have been raising the public consensus regarding the scarcity of traditional energies. For example, scholars have pointed out that unrenewable energy will be depleted within approximately six decades. This example clearly indicates the fact that fossil fuels will be extinct even without the competition with clean energy. Consequently, the doom of fossil fuels is inevitable by its nature.

Secondly, alternative energy itself has assorted advantages, such as low toxic gas emission and inexhaustible productivity. Take Beijing for example, vast usage of fossil fuels has been found as the culprit of recent air pollution, which in turn results in a high chance of acquiring lung cancer and other related diseases. This phenomenon would be eased substantially had new energy been adopt. Thus, it is readily discernible for the need to relocate traditional energy by alternative power.

To recapitulate, based on the above discussion, the scarcity of fossil fuels and the drawback of itself exert an undeniable fact that traditional energy will substituted by clean power in the coming future. Consequently, it could be predicted that the planet will be cleaner and cleaner in the future.
