HST, do we really need it?

At the present moment we are suffering from a lot of problems related with the environment, such as pollution, deforestation, global warming… Although it seems as we are getting more involved with this topic, we are not doing our best. What I mean is that sometimes we don’t really realize about what we are doing, and even if we think that we are doing a right thing we are not. This could be the case of the construction of the HST.

HST is the diminutive of High Speed Train. As the name itself says, it consists of a fast train, which will give you the opportunity of travelling in a fast speed and will also cost you less. But dismissing this, do we really need it? It´s true that we are always saying that the best way of not pollinating is using public transports or transports which don’t pollute, such as trains. But, sadly, in this case, what they are doing when building this high speed train, is to destroy lands. Moreover, they are destroying habitats too at the same time, so they are living some animals without a place to stay.

We do have trains to go anywhere and we also have public transports which we can use to go to another city, for example. Even if the HST can be cheaper, we should think about the horrible thing we are doing to the environment itself, only for our best comfort. If only we could think a little bit more about the consequences it has, I’m sure we could stop this forever.

So, now that we see this, we could say that they should stop doing that HST construction, due to the fact that humans are the only ones who can change the situation in which we are and stop destroying some other animal’s habitats.
