Some people claim that there are more disadvantages of the car than it's advantages. Do you agree or disagree? Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of having a car.

In recent years, owning a
car
has become very essential. Many individuals are of the view that there are more downsides to a
car

this
point of view mainly because the merits

transportation
and

the state of being suitable or opportune

be heavier than

This
essay will discuss both the merits and demerits of owning a
car
. There are many major upsides to purchasing a vehicle in recent years. One of the major upside is for easy
transportation
.
In other words
, a personal means of
transportation
is more essential and durable than having to take public
transportation
. Imagine, if you will, a family of five
traveling
the act of going from one place to another
travelling
from point A to point B, would move
easily
Suggestion
more easily
in their personal
car
than in public transport. A study carried out in 2018, by the People's Magazine revealed that about 70% of the population today prefer driving to taking public
transportation
mainly because of easy commute.
Hence
, resulting in less public
transportation
.
In addition
,
this
provides
convinence
the state of being suitable or opportune
convenience
to individuals as well as families residing within the countryside where public
transportation
is minimally available.
However
, there are
also
major downsides to
this
such
as
enviromental
of or relating to the external conditions or surroundings
environmental
pollution
and
congestion
. One of the major
issue
Suggestion
issues
facing our environment today is air
pollution
and
this
can be caused by smoke from
vehciles
a conveyance that transports people or objects
vehicles
vessels
which depletes the ozone layer. Take
for example
, the 2019 study carried out by the World's Health
Organization which
Accept comma addition
Organization, which
, suggested that about 60% of the ozone layer has been depleted
which, is approximately
Suggestion
, which is approximately
two times more than in 1990.
Thus
, resulting in major health issues as well as climate changes to the environment.
Furthermore
, owning a
car
increases
congestion
within the
society
Suggestion
society, thus
thus
, increasing traffic as well as
pollution
. In conclusion, while there are demerits
such
as
enviromental
of or relating to the external conditions or surroundings
environmental
pollution
and
congestion
, there are
also
many major benefits to owning a
car
which includes, easy
transportation
and
also
convinence
the state of being suitable or opportune
convenience
. If the government would provide automatic cars and
also
increase major roads these would go a long way in aiding the depletion of the ozone layer thereby reducing air
