There is not a need at all to make a choice between conservation of the environment and the progression of third world countries. With smart sustainable policy, it is not impossible to both promote economic growth while carrying out environmental protection simultaneously. Natural ways of improvising is one of the best approaches to promote economic progression at the same time conserve the environment. A very striking example is the rise of temperature caused by factories brought about a condition where fishes were unable to survive in it. By shifting the factory is not a smart idea as it would impede economic growth and if the local fishermen and farmers for the implementation of
