Intro to Research Paper

Nature has played an important part throughout the course of history, be it in its vast use of resources to the inspiration of arts through its beauty. Humans have delved in its intricacies since the dawn of mankind and have utilized it for various purposes. The great importance and practicalities nature possess, unfortunately makes it subject to the exploitation of its riches.  Environmental contamination and destruction have sky-rocketed in recent years and seems to be overlooked if it proves beneficial to other fields deemed necessary. Several nations have carried out these approaches in return of economic profits, an example of this is the eastern Caribbean country of Grenada. While most advocates don’t particularly call for a transcendentalist approach towards society and the environment, they do center around the protection and preservation of the planet’s resources and to mediate the degree of pollution in the region. Grenada’s main contributor to its economy and pollution is tourism thus creating a conflict when deciding which should have precedence over the other. Many are in a heated debate over these concerns because they both play a crucial role in the nation’s overall state and society, both in problems and solutions. Tourism presents the solution to Grenada’s economic and societal problems, however, can also moderate environmental damages through the protection and conservation of its resources.
