The first “Environmentally Sensitive Area” sign is formal and official. It makes people think that the area is important. However, because it doesn’t forbid people any specific actions, people may carelessly do something that is not supposed to be done there. If the sign contained some restrictions on people’s actions, people would feel more responsibility and be careful about their behaviors. <br />In contrast to the first sign, the second sign is very poetic and informal. It doesn’t have strong power that comes from legal responsibility, but it makes people feel guilty for doing any harm to the environment. The sentimental expression affects the readers’ emotion and makes them cherish the environment. <br />I think the second sign is better than the first one, because not only the second sign makes people do not harm the area, but also it appeals to people's conscience which will prevent them from polluting other environment too.Hye-Jinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03011899910301188228noreply@blogger.com
