History (Persuasive Writing)

Older houses should be demolished and replaced with a more energy-efficient building.

Which side I'm on: For / Against

Planning

For 
- More suited to our ever-changing environment.
- We already have museums and history books to show us what the houses were like.

Against
- We could be missing our part of our history.
-

Organise
- We already have museums and history books to show us what the houses were like.
- We could be missing our part of our history but taking these risk could led us to a better future.
- More suited to our ever-changing environment.

For the most part of our history, houses have been really important to us. Without buildings, we would not have shelter from the cold wind outside, without houses there would be nothing to keep us getting wet from the rain.
But throughout the years we have advanced on our technology, we are able to build energy-efficient houses now. Although the older houses are still standing today, I think they should be taken down to build better houses.
We already have museums and history books to tell us how those houses were made and what they were like. Sure we could lose part of our history by taking these house down but the new homes are more suited to our environments.

Our journey from the past to today have been recorded through books and museums, and until recently we have been able to record it through the internet because of the internet.
We don't need older houses to learn more about what it was like and how people lived in the past. 
Museums have little buildings to show what buildings were like back in the day, books tell us how it was like back in the days. We are a growing society and I think the extra space we have by demolishing the older building could help us.

Why should we take down these older houses? Well, I know that we could lose a part of our history by taking down these older home but taking these risk could lead us to a better future. People of the past have taken a risk to advanced our species. Without these risks, we probably would not have the stuff we have today. We already our history recorded in museums and history books so it is unlikely we would forget our history.

These newer houses are more suited to our environment. If you think about it buildings, houses and all kind of structures, have been designed to prevent it from getting destroyed. We have designed buildings that can withstand an earthquake. We have made houses that prevents cold air from getting in.
These new houses are really helpful for our community. It decreases the chances of rebuilding broken homes and it also decreases that chances of people getting hurt.

So I think we should demolish the older buildings and replaced them with new ones because our history has already been recorded in museums and history books, they could lead us to a better future and it is more suited to the environment.
