The Modern era of technology has brought tremendous innovations into the world due to which human living standards have immensely improved. Nowadays, cars have become a major mean of transportation, but the fossil fuel, which they burn has a detrimental impact on our environment. I agree that electric cars should replace cars that burn petroleum and natural gasses for ignition because of the increasing air pollution and global warming.
On one hand, vehicles that burn fossil fuels for ignition
air pollution by releasing greenhouse gasses
as nitrogen
and carbon monoxide. These gasses cause acid rain and haze which mainly affects the water, on land and the trees.
, these poisonous gasses
affect human health. To illustrate, China and India are the most populated countries in the world and due to the heavy usage of cars that burn fossil fuels in both countries, scientists have recorded a significant
in the amount of sulphur and nitrogen
mixed in raindrops. These countries have
seen an
in haze in the past few years, due to which different health issues
as loss of breath and nausea have increased in both countries.
, vehicles that burn petroleum and natural gasses cause an
in global warming by releasing carbon
in the
. Carbon
is a major contributor to global warming as it controls the earth’s
. Burning fossil fuels releases much extra CO2 in the
, and it absorbs a wide range of energy, including the infrared (heat) energy emitted by the earth and
re-emit it in all directions and most of that heat travels back to the earth.
, studies have shown that the global
has risen by 0.8 Celsius since 1880. Many Asian and European countries have already recorded 2019 as the hottest year.
, Scientists have
observed that due to the
in global
the glaciers on both poles are melting faster than ever.
, due to the extra amount of carbon
in the
earth’s
is increasing drastically.
In conclusion, cars that burn fossil fuels are contributing adversely to the
by releasing greenhouse gasses.
, these cars should be banned and replaced by electric cars as they pollute the air and
global warming.
