Writing a rationale
How to write a rationale.
What is a rationale?
A rationale is when you are asked to give the reasoning or justification for an action or a choice you make.
There is a focus on the ‘ why ’ in a rationale: why you chose to do something, study or focus on something. It is a set of statements of purpose and significance and often addresses a gap or a need.
A rationale in Australian academic writing is rarely a whole task by itself. It is often a part of a bigger task. For example, a part of a lesson plan might be to provide a rationale for why you chose to teach particular content or use a certain resource or activity, or you may be asked to provide a rationale as to why you chose a particular theory to apply or a concept to support.
You may be called upon to provide a rationale:
prior to an action or decision; why you plan to do something and how, or
- after you have acted or decided something; reflecting, looking back, why you did something and how it worked or not.
You can use language to signal you are clearly providing a rationale in your writing. You can link your rationale to learning outcomes or aims for a lesson, activity or assessment task.
A model: problem-solution-rationale
A rationale can be provided by offering longer essay-based support for why it is important to do something in a certain way – in that sense, a whole paper can be a rationale.
However, a more specific or focused way of thinking about a rationale is how we can overtly show we are justifying our choices with the language we use.
One way of doing this is to consider the problem or issue requiring attention, the solution and then the rationale or justification for the solution (the ‘why’). This sets the rationale (the reason) within a context.
A diagnostic assessment determined that the students required more attention to addition and subtraction of mixed fractions. This activity intends to address this problem by having the children engage with the task with blocks before it is done with figures. The reason I chose to do this is because students have higher comprehension levels when presented with visual or tangible representations of abstract problems (Benson, 2016). I also did this as I wanted to allow the children to ‘play’ with maths, to see that it can be a fun activity and in doing so, to breakdown some of the ‘anti-mathematics prejudices’ that Gaines (2017, p. 4) talks about.
The important thing here is the language used to signal the rationale , in this case:
The reason I chose to do this is because … and I also did this as …
Another problem / solution / rationale example:
Scaffolding is the support provided by the teacher or a significant other, such as a classmate, which helps students in learning (Gibbons, 2015). Some students were having difficulty with the language at entry while others, particularly those who had completed the pre-tasks, had few problems. Therefore, in order to address this disparity in level and understanding, mixed-ability pairs were created where the more competent student helped the other. On reflection, this was an effective way to run the activity for two reasons : it allowed peer-to-peer teaching which solidified both students’ understanding; and it scaffolded the support in a way that allowed me to roam the room lending advice to pairs as needed.
The language used to signal our rationale in this example:
in order to and for two reasons …
Language to signal rationale
in order to
the reason this was done/chosen …
for the following reason(s) …
for two/three reasons …
Language for further justification - showing importance
This was important / significant because …
This meant that I could…
This enabled me to …
… which enabled / allowed me to…
… which pointed to / highlighted that / showed me that …
The key thing to remember about rationale writing is to stand back from the writing, look at it in a big picture sense and ask yourself, ‘ Have I explained why? ’ If that is clearly articulated, you have provided a rationale.

English Language Rationale
Rationale Learning English as a L2 (second language) is not an easy task. According to Brown, in order to master the English language, learners have to be adequately exposed to all of the four basic skills, namely listening, speaking, reading and writing. Language teaching in this country is currently focusing on the teaching and learning of the four language skills (now five adding viewing via the implementation of the K-12 basic education program). However, the standard of English among Filipino children is on the decline despite learning English for several years. Filipino students are still weak in English, especially in these macro-skills. In the Philippines, English language has been considered the most influential spoken language in both educational and commercial facets of society. In fact, any school encourages the use of English in all of their forms of exchanging thoughts and ideas with which they can be understood by many. As an indispensable form of spoken communication and as a global language, English plays a vital role among people who seek for greener pasture and would take lucrative positions abroad. Moreover, English as a second language serves as the portal to susceptibly open greater opportunities among Filipinos who opt to create names in their chosen fields of expertise. In the 2004-2005, 2005-2006 and 2011-2012 National Achievement Test Results, English as one of the major core areas taken in the said examination, revealed the low performance
Why Through Genesis Rhetorical Analysis
When interviewing members of society about their jobs, we can see a division between the positions that are respected and those that are not. Society looks down upon physical labor and idolizes people who have office jobs. The people who have jobs that require physical labor are often treated poorly by customers and are put into less than ideal situations; however, these people find personal satisfaction through wages, their coworkers, and experiences. Living in an underdeveloped community, people often have to work a minimum wage job to earn a living. Genesis Chavarria, an 18-year-old Latina, began to work at Wingstop at the age of 16 to support her family and herself after her mom lost her nursing job.
Why Is Japanese Unjustified
In the depth of World War II America was now in war with Japan, Germany, Italy, and all allies of theirs. Whilst these battles took place throughout Europe, Japan suddenly bombed the U.S.’s current territory of Hawaii thus forcing America into the war. With deaths flooding through other countries America felt that at this time it seemed reasonable to place all Japanese and of Japanese descent people in confinement camps. The confinement of the Japanese was unjustified because it was entirely based on racism, for the fact that the Japanese weren’t at all dangerous, they didn't feel need to do this to German and Italian descent, and after all that it wasn't military justified as claimed and defended. Despite what was said the Japanese weren't
English Language Learners Essay
Equal Protection for English Language Learners Any student migrating from another country or lives in a home where English is not a first language or no English is spoken faces many problems. Even in the United States where the population of immigrants is in millions. There are many students who considered as English language learners (ELL). Sometimes, these students are treated unfairly in the school environment and are at a disadvantage due to language barriers.
Explain Why Should Educators Be Concerned About Non Standard English
If a student is able to communicate well enough in his or her non-Standard English for others to understand, why should educators be concerned about non-Standard English usage? Students need to understand Standard English because it will greatly affect their future ability. If a student is not taught to use and understand Standard English, they will be less successful in school and less likely to seek a higher education. Standard English is used in all public and private schools in the U.S., which would make learning more difficult if not impossible for students who do not understand it. Students who grow-up using non-Standard English are taken less seriously and perceived to less intelligent therefore they become less successful as adults.
Explain The Conventions Of Standard Written English

Conventions are features of writing, and sentence formation with respect to the reader, making writing easier to read by putting it in a form that the reader expects.

Reflection On My English Subject
My favorite subject has always been english, I was never a fan of math, especially when it came to high school and college. My english teachers in high school did not helped me at all. They never taught us how to write a thesis, how to organize our ideas and how to improve our vocabulary. All the teachers would do is assigned a book to read and write a paper on what it was about. We never got the chance to write about a topic we were interested in or talk about our opinions on a certain topic.
English Literacy In America
Inside their homes, mostly the top three languages other than English that are spoken are Spanish, Vietnamese, and Urdu. These statistics show that America is made up of many different people and that English doesn’t come very easy for everyone. In many households, growing up English isn’t the first language so when it’s time for school, children struggle with literacy. Most college students nowadays have done a test and realized that the average American college graduates English literacy has declined. The National Assessment of Literacy was given and the test found low English in Hispanic culture.

Why did I say I knew how to speak French? Victor thought to himself Her he thought. He decided he had done enough work that night and drifted off to sleep thinking of Teresa.
National Council Of Teachers Of English Literate Analysis
First things first, who gave the National Council of Teachers of English also known as NCTE, the authority to redefine the word literate as it pertains to the global community. I believe that the NCTE as an institution does not have the proper background to define the word literate. The NCTE is an American organization that was founded in 1911 for the purpose of “improving the teaching and learning of English and the language arts at all levels of education” (“National Council of Teachers of English”). Since that time the NCTE has been interested in improving the English curriculum that is taught from preschool to high school and college. They have also provided English teachers a platform where they can improve their own careers by interacting
English Language Analysis
Being raised in a Mexican household that only practiced one language affected my understanding of other languages. Integrating into a school where I had to learn a new language was difficult to understand and processing all the information I was being given was just too difficult for me at a young age. As a past student from the Alvord Unified School district, learning all the concepts of the English language was tedious at times. When I was trying to improve my English, all my attention and efforts went to knowing how to speak, pronounce, and write in English but failed to pay attention to the smaller details of English. At a young age I was placed in various learning program classes offered by the school district to help those who learned
Politics And The English Language
Authors often use literary devices and writing techniques in their works. During the past block, we studied texts that exemplify the power of discourse. Each text used the literary devices and writing techniques of labels. They used these devices in order to influence their readers’ understanding and to construct reality. Specifically, the texts of “Writing like a White Guy,” by Jaswinder Bolina, and “Politics and the English Language,” by George Orwell, exemplify this.
What Are The Arguments Against Bilingual Education
LEP students learn all school disciplines as native students must. Besides, it takes more time and energies to know the content in English well enough to handle higher academic English. Likewise, I agree with the author that students’ not being given access to the curriculum in a language they understand will prevent them from participating in school
The Influence Of The Modern English Language
The Modern English language has a rich history, it develops and changes like many other world languages. The English language has mainly been influenced by Latin, Germanic and French over a period of two thousand years. The English Lexicon includes words from over 120 countries, however Latin, Germanic and Latin account approximately less than 30% each. The English language is second to none in the variety and amount of lexical words. The most penetrating influence on English in history is French during the Middle English period after the Norman conquests.

Importance Of English Language
English is a language which can be traced back to the 5th century by migration and resettlement of its speakers into the different parts of the world. Beginning its foundation of the American colonies into Europe and into the 17th century with its establishment of the East India Company (Paranjpe & Prasad, 2010). The 200 years of presence that English had in India left a huge impression on its language orientation. Both attitudinally and linguistically English has made its place into the new cultural environment and fresh communicative needs. Despite the government’s support towards Hindi, the language inculcating the largest number of speakers under it compared to the other Indian Languages has not yet been able to take up the prestige that English holds in India. India’s larger population is bilingual with proficiency in English. Today it has earned the privilege as the language of the world’s developed countries, their technologies and economy (Paranjpe & Prasad, 2010). It is the very reason that this language has caught the attention of the future generations irrespective of their home country to put English at the pedestal and give development of their native tongue a second place. The provision that English gives on the professional front is too strong as compared to any of the other languages in India.

Discussion/essay questions
- A belief in fortunes and lucky numbers is an example of a superstition. Superstitions are beliefs that certain actions or events will bring good or bad luck. Most cultures have their own superstitions. Do you believe in any superstitions? Do you know anyone who is very superstitious?
Fortune cookies are a popular dessert served in Chinese restaurants across North America. But they actually don’t come from China at all. Fortune cookies were likely invented by early Japanese immigrants to the US. The fortune cookie recipe is similar to a type of Japanese cracker called senbei . In the early 1900s, a man named Makoto Hagiwara worked as the caretaker of the Japanese Tea Garden in California. He had the idea to put “thank you” notes inside senbei crackers. During World War II, the US government forced over 100,000 Japanese Americans into internment camps. This put many Japanese restaurants out of business. However, Chinese cuisine was still popular in American cities. American diners liked to have dessert with meals, so Chinese restaurants served fortune cookies to make customers happy. Today’s fortune cookies usually contain a small note with a piece of advice and a set of lucky numbers.

'She wanted to live a good life': Parents of Indian doctor raped and murdered on night shift
![rationale for learning english essay rationale for learning english essay](https://www.bbc.com/bbcx/grey-placeholder.png)
The rape and murder of a trainee doctor in India’s Kolkata city earlier this month has sparked massive outrage in the country, with tens of thousands of people protesting on the streets, demanding justice. BBC Hindi spoke to the doctor’s parents who remember their daughter as a clever, young woman who wanted to lead a good life and take care of her family.
All names and details of the family have been removed as Indian laws prohibit identifying a rape victim or her family.
"Please make sure dad takes his medicines on time. Don't worry about me."
This was the last thing the 31-year-old doctor said to her mother, hours before she was brutally assaulted in a hospital where she worked.
“The next day, we tried reaching her but the phone kept ringing," the mother told the BBC at their family home in a narrow alley, a few kilometres from Kolkata.
The same morning, the doctor’s partially-clothed body was discovered in the seminar hall, bearing extensive injuries. A hospital volunteer worker has been arrested in connection with the crime.
The incident has sparked massive outrage across the country, with protests in several major cities. At the weekend, doctors across hospitals in India observed a nation-wide strike called by the Indian Medical Association (IMA), with only emergency services available at major hospitals.
The family say they feel hollowed out by their loss.
“At the age of 62, all my dreams have been shattered," her father told the BBC.
Since their daughter's horrific murder, their house, located in a respectable neighbourhood, has become the focus of intense media scrutiny.
Behind a police barricade stand dozens of journalists and camera crew, hoping to capture the parents in case they step out.
A group of 10 to 15 police officers perpetually stand guard to ensure the cameras do not take photos of the victim's house.
![rationale for learning english essay Getty Images Women hold lit candles as they take part in a vigil named 'Reclaim the Night' on 15 August in Kolkata](https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/480/cpsprodpb/b9a5/live/8e215cf0-5efe-11ef-a143-7dce37ecbef8.jpg.webp)
The crime took place on the night of 9 August, when the woman, who was a junior doctor at the city's RG Kar Medical College, had gone to a seminar room to rest after a gruelling 36-hour shift.
Her parents remembered how the young doctor, their only child, was a passionate student who worked extremely hard to become a doctor.
“We come from a lower middle-class background and built everything on our own. When she was little, we struggled financially," said the father, who is a tailor.
The living room where he sat was cluttered with tools from his profession - a sewing machine, spools of thread and a heavy iron. There were scraps of fabrics scattered on the floor.
There were times when the family did not have money to even buy pomegranates, their daughter's favourite fruit, he continued.
"But she could never bring herself to ask for anything for herself."
“People would say, ‘You can’t make your daughter a doctor'. But my daughter proved everyone wrong and got admission in a government-run medical college," he added, breaking down. A relative tried to console him.
The mother recalled how her daughter would write in her diary every night before going to bed.
“She wrote that she wanted to win a gold medal for her medical degree. She wanted to lead a good life and take care of us too,” she said softly.
And she did.
The father, who is a high blood-pressure patient, said their daughter always made sure he took his medicines on time.
“Once I ran out of medicine and thought I’d just buy it the next day. But she found out, and even though it was around 10 or 11pm at night, she said no-one will eat until the medicine is here,” he said.
“That’s how she was - she never let me worry about anything."
Her mother listened intently, her hands repeatedly touching a gold bangle on her wrist - a bangle she had bought with her daughter.

The parents said their daughter’s marriage had almost been finalised. "But she would tell us not to worry and say she would continue to take care of all our expenses even after marriage," the father said.
As he spoke those words, the mother began to weep, her soft sobs echoing in the background.
Occasionally, her eyes would wander to the staircase, leading up to their daughter's room.
The door has remained shut since 10 August and the parents have not set foot there since the news of her death.
They say they still can't believe that something "so barbaric" could happen to their daughter at her workplace.
"The hospital should be a safe place," the father said.
Violence against women is a major issue in India - an average of 90 rapes a day were reported in 2022, according to government data.
The parents said their daughter’s death had brought back memories of a 2012 case when a 22-year-old physiotherapy intern was gang-raped on a moving bus in capital Delhi. Her injuries were fatal.
Following the assault - which made global headlines and led to weeks of protests - India tightened laws against sexual violence.
But reported cases of sexual assault have gone up and access to justice still remains a challenge for women.
Last week, thousands participated in a Reclaim the Night march held in Kolkata to demand safety for women across the country.
The doctor’s case has also put a spotlight on challenges faced by healthcare workers, who have demanded a thorough and impartial investigation into the murder and a federal law to protect them - especially women - at work.
Federal Health Minister JP Nadda has assured doctors that he will bring in strict measures to ensure better safety in their professional environments.
But for the parents of the doctor, it's too little too late.
“We want the harshest punishment for the culprit," the father said.
“Our state, our country and the whole world is asking for justice for our daughter."

In times of economic difficulty, should a country still be concerned with environmental conservation?
The GP essay illustrated below is a sample version of what students who enrol for our JC General Paper Tuition Programme receive. Our tuition programmes are designed to be easily digestible for students of any calibre, read further to find out more.
ADDITIONAL NOTES:
What is environmental conservation?
It is an umbrella term that defines anything we do to protect our planet and conserve its natural resources so that every living thing can have an improved quality of life.
Conservation works in two ways. It is meant to protect nature by protecting vital resources, and it is also a way of living that works against the irresponsible practices of businesses and large corporations. Green living takes away the power from those who have no interest in using their influence to promote the greater good of our world and choose to add to the problem instead. The more money we keep out of the pockets of big businesses that do not care for the environment, the more we can do for the planet.
Additional information on 2008 Global Financial Crisis
According to Bloomberg: the nation’s six largest banks – JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Citigroup, Wells Fargo, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley borrowed almost half a trillion dollars from the Feds at peak periods.
Environment Quotations/ Green Politics Philosophy:
Conventional political thought has subscribed to a human-centred approach to understanding, often called anthropocentrism: a belief that moral priority has therefore been given to the achievement of human needs and ends, with nature being seen as a way of facilitating these needs and ends.
“It is our task in our time and in our generation to hand down undiminished to those who come after us, as was handed down to us by those who went before, the natural wealth and beauty which is ours.” – John F Kennedy’s speech dedicating the National Wildlife Federation Building in 1961.
In the words of the early liberal English Philosopher John Locke, human beings are ‘the masters and professors of nature’.
INTRODUCTION
The 2008 Global Financial Crisis saw the unprecedented bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers Investment Bank and what ensued was Greece teetering at the edge of bankruptcy and needing a cash bailout from the International Monetary Fund and European Union. At that material point of time, politicians from G7 countries were single-mindedly focused on stemming another financial rout, preventing the equities/ stock market from another freefall and bringing the unemployment rate down. When an economic crisis happens, typically a stupendous sum of financial resources are deployed to stabilise the financial markets, rendering the government less concerned with environmental conservation. Detractors may opine that industrialisation and neglect of the environment are inevitable due to unfavourable economic circumstances. Howbeit, environmental degradation may inflict deleterious damages on the economy which runs contrary to the intended purpose of industrialisation. In addition, environmental conservation is key for economies that are environment-centric, for instance, tourism and the deteriorating environment poses a greater threat to our lives as compared to economic crises.
ANTITHESIS 1
When a financial crisis beleaguers a nation, environmental conservation must take a back seat as the way out of economic difficulty is more crucial.
ELABORATION:
A protracted (prolonged) recession means sluggish economic growth, over a long period of time, signalling systemic problems in the economic system, such as inefficiencies and a lack of competitiveness, which are themselves complex issues that require much resources and time to address. For many governments which operate with large deficits (US war in Afghanistan 2001 & Iraq 2004 + 2008 Subprime Crisis), the concerns of the government are immediate obstacles such as securing funding for bureaucratic machinery to continue operating. Furthermore, when persistently high unemployment goes untackled, it can potentially lead to violent crime and civil unrest.
Workers across Greece mounted coordinated protests in 2012, which reflected widespread unhappiness with high unemployment, slowing growth and worsening economic prospects in Europe. Unions in Greece joined in protests and work stoppages to show solidarity with striking workers. In response, the Greek government widely publicised the government agenda for the potential exploitation of air, land and water resources, through fast-track investment projects. However, the environmental effects of such intensive and invasive extraction projects may be nature-offensive despite legal requirements for environmental safeguards.
The existing lack of coordination across government agencies is also likely to increase under the crisis, due to the restructuring of the public sector and drastic personnel cuts. Under troika policies, the government has implemented sweeping legislative changes, budget reductions and the restructuring of environmental agencies. For example, core Environmental Non-Governmental Organisations (ENGO) coalitions hold Parliament liable for easing the construction of buildings in protected areas, thus exposing protected areas and biodiversity, and annulling previous protective measures.
EVALUATION OF EXAMPLE:
Mining, gas and oil extraction projects, which feature high on the governmental agenda, are all known for their capacity to produce environmental threats. The expected environmental and health impacts of Greece’s exploitative public policy are vehemently decried by local communities; they are supported by members of the scientific community, but they may be the key to pulling Greece out of the economic crisis.
Hence, a government needs to compromise and abandon environmental conservation for the sake of the greater good.
SHORT-REBUTTAL:
Greece’s economy is in an extremely dire condition, an anomaly (Something that deviates from what is standard, normal, or expected) case, whereby the various international monetary organisations (IMF & EU) have issued an ultimatum of sorts where Greece is backed against the wall and must use drastic measures to stay afloat. In most other countries, the exploitation of resources is not as bad as an idea that generates tax revenue.
Environmental degradation has the ability to kick start a chain of pernicious ramifications/ repercussions (negative consequences) that inflict damages on the tourism, retail and government sectors.
There is a high probability that widespread pollution would be a catalyst to a nationwide health crisis, disrupting the inflow of revenue from tourism. Not only can it aggravate a long term health condition, but it can also cause more people to contract respiratory-related illnesses. A country that has adequate public healthcare coverage would then have to bear the brunt of this health catastrophe. It will not be a problem for a wealthy country, but for a country facing economic difficulty? Are they able to sustain the people’s medical bills which could very well run into the millions? In addition, with such pollution, flights and tourists will be put off.
In September 2015, flights in the region were diverted as a result of the worsening haze that had blanketed parts of Southeast Asia. Garuda Indonesia has cancelled more than 400 flights to and from destinations in Sumatra and Kalimantan affected by thick haze from forest fires. Garuda scrapped 449 flights in the period from Sept 3 to 20 due to the limited visibility from the haze that blanketed the air in several cities in Sumatra and Kalimantan. The 2015 Haze episode caused by forest fires in Indonesia and exacerbated/aggravated by a severe El Nino effect cost Singapore an estimated $700 million of losses to retailers, hotels, tourism and the economy overall, according to research by Euston Quah, a professor and head of the economics division at Nanyang Technological University. Additionally, according to the Jokowi government, more than 136,000 Indonesians were reportedly suffering from respiratory infections.
When the forest fires in Indonesia occurred, the public healthcare system would have most likely bore the brunt of the medical costs. People employed in the tourism and retail sectors were likely to have been badly hit as well.
This causes the country to sink deeper into a financial black hole, thus environmental conservation should be prioritised as it precipitates and expedites the economic difficulties of a country.
For countries that are highly dependent on the environment for their economy, environmental conservation should indubitably/ arguably come first.
It is unequivocally (crystal) clear that countries whose economies are agriculture-centric have to focus on environmental conservation as the state of the environment is crucial to their agricultural yields. The economic consequences of climate change were highlighted by the Stern Review (2006), which pointed out that global warming could so disrupt economic and social activity that a failure to address it could mean global GDP being up to 20 percent lower than it otherwise might be.
In China, agriculture, meaning food security and safety, is a potent arm of the economy. Statistics suggest that agriculture provides more than 12 percent of the total Gross Domestic Product in China. However, rampant pollution is taking a toll on its economic growth. Acid rain is a costly by-product of China’s air pollution, which can cause crop damage and deforestation in addition to structural damage to buildings and harm to human health. Moreover, water pollution exacerbates water shortages. In many rural areas of China, agricultural lands received water so polluted that it was unfit for use, leading to a significant loss of grain production. Moreover coupled with the issue of soil pollution which not only threatens the food supply and safety, but also endangers public health, and damages the ecological system in some regions, pollution is unbridled.
As such, in lieu of (instead of) the high reliance on the agricultural component for the health of China’s economy, and the fact that ideal environmental conditions and high agricultural yield goes hand-in-hand, environmental conservation should be of utmost priority.
It is only possible to lift a country, reliant on agriculture, out of economic woes if one focuses on environmental conservation.
The neglect of environmental conservation poses an imminent threat to people’s lives.
Rising sea levels displace people from their homes, exacerbating the migration problem that Europe is presently experiencing from Syria. As global temperatures rise and the ice shelves start melting causing sea levels to rise, it is almost untenable for us to ‘refreeze’ these melted ice.
If current increases in sea levels persist, one-sixth of the land area of Bangladesh could be lost to the sea by the middle of this century, if not earlier, leaving 13 percent of the country’s population with nowhere to live or farm. The prospects for people living in low-lying island groups, such as the Maldives, may be even bleaker, as these may disappear altogether. Africa and the Arctic (where sea ice is shrinking by 2.7 percent per decade) are likely to bear the brunt of climate impacts along with low-lying small islands and the Asian river deltas.
Such environmental threats are a paramount concern, as opposed to economic difficulties. The issue of economic difficulty seems minuscule (so small) as to be insignificant when we take into consideration the total environmental, migration, social and medical costs from rising sea levels that displaces people from their homeland.
Climate change threatens the survival of so many small island states and the possibility of these climate-displaced people dying from it far outweighs any economic arguments championed by politicians, namely higher GDP growth and low unemployment rate.
In summary, whether or not a country should concern itself with environmental conservation is a matter of cost-benefit analysis. Ignoring environmental conservation when one’s livelihood depends on those resources would be a fatal error in judgement. A country must also consider the corresponding short and long-run costs in healthcare and whether putting environmental conservation on hold truly lifts the country out of a miry recession or depletes the country’s coffers. Finally, an economic crisis would be the least of our worries considering the dire physical threat to people’s health and shelter. Taking into account all of these, I would opine that people’s well-being is not for governments to gamble with, and basic provisions for environmental conservation should be made before a country pursues economic growth.
