Some people think that the environmental problems are too big for individuals to deal with. Others, however, think that each individual should take some actions. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

► 阅读例段：个人行为对环境保护的影响

Individual actions are far from being insignificant as they can accumulate to create a substantial impact over time. For example, if every individual in a city chooses to use public transportation, walk, or cycle instead of driving a car, the overall reduction in carbon emissions and air pollution would be significant. Similarly, simple actions like reducing water usage, turning off lights when not in use, and recycling waste can collectively contribute to conserving natural resources and reducing environmental degradation.
