Answer 1

One possible version：

Recently ，our class have had a discussion about the factors the sustainable development in the world。

Some students think environmental pollution is the biggest killer ，which can cause more than seven million deaths every year 。Air pollution alone causes almost three million people to lose their lives 。20 percent of the people on earth do not have access to clean drinking water。

However ，others think poverty is the biggest killer 。For one thing ，in order to survive they have to cut down trees and destroy fields 。As a result ，they make clean air and pure water badly polluted 。For another ，they can't afford education 。But it is known to us all that without education man can't live peacefully with nature。

Despite the disagreement ，they all believe only through international cooperation can sustainable development go smoothly。
