All cars that burn fossil fuels should be banned and electric cars should replace them. Do you agree or disagree?

Nowadays, cars have become a major mean of transportation, but the fossil

fuel

, which they burn has a detrimental impact on our environment. Some may argue that electric cars should not completely replace the traditional

fuel

consumption cars;

however

, in my opinion, I completely agree with the notion that cars which use petroleum and natural gasses should be banned and replaced by electric cars because of the increasing air pollution and global warming. On one hand, some old school people may not fully support the idea of banning traditional vehicles. The reason behind

this

is the mindset that cars that run on batteries are expensive and don’t have much power and acceleration for tough routes, particularly in the mountains.

However

, Tesla, a well known electric car manufacturing company has successfully launched a mini electric truck. According to the company,

this

truck can compete with any

fuel

consumption truck in terms of power and acceleration.

On the other hand

, vehicles that burn fossil fuels for ignition

increase

air pollution by releasing greenhouse gasses

such

as

Carbon

dioxide

, nitrogen

dioxide

, and

carbon

monoxide. To illustrate, due to the heavy usage of cars that burn fossil

fuel

scientists have recorded an

increase

in acid rains and haze in many countries due to these poisonous gasses, many health issues

such

as loss of breath and nausea have

also

increased across the globe.

Moreover

, vehicles that burn petroleum and natural gasses cause an

increase

in global warming by releasing

carbon

dioxide

in the atmosphere. Extra

carbon

dioxide

in the atmosphere is one of the major contributors to global warming as it absorbs heat emitted by the earth and

then

re-emits most of it back to the earth.

For example

, studies have shown that the global temperature has risen by 0.8 Celsius since 1880. Many Asian and European countries have already recorded 2019 as the hottest year.

Besides

, Scientists have

also

observed that due to the

increase

in global temperature the glaciers on both poles are melting faster than ever.

Consequently

, due to the extra amount of

carbon

dioxide

in the atmosphere earth’s temperature is increasing drastically. In conclusion, even though some people think that cars that burn fossil fuels shouldn’t be completely replaced by electric cars, these vehicles are having a detrimental impact on our planet.
