Despite much anticipation and excitement over the topic of discovering and colonising other inhabitable planets, so far that section of science has been nothing but disappointing. Therefore I believe that mankind must do whatever possible to reduce the number of organic pollutants used, so that, should the search for inhabitable planets continue to fail, we may still be able to live right here on planet Earth a tad longer. Even though money makes the world go round, the amount lost through holding back on using organic pollutants will be miniscule in comparison with the amount of Mother Nature we as humans would be saving.

Although in some countries where most of the land is barren, such as Pakistan, Yemen and Iraq, it might be wise to make use of organic pollutants wherever possible as there is hardly anymore damage to be done. For this is truly an enigmatic question to respond to, as it is the legendary 'double sided blade argument' where both sides have equal effects, to juxtapose them brings the arguing delegate to a balance of zero where both sides have counter attacked eachother to the point of non-existence.
