The first car appeared on British roads in 1888. By the year 2000 there may be as many as 29 million vehicles on British roads. Alternative forms of transport should be encouraged and international laws introduced to control car ownership and use. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Since 1888, cars drive on British streets and in 2000 we already had 29 million vehicles in Britain. Some people think, that alternative

transportation

forms should be encouraged and vehicle and it would be good to control ownership and

use

by international laws.

This

essay agrees with

this

approach and wants to point out some reasons.

First

of all, using less cars and going by bike or foot will enhance our health. People often

use

their vehicle for short distances which can easily be used for physical activity.

For instance

, I know dwellers of

suburbs which

suburbs, which

could easily

use

their bikes for their daily way to work, but it is way more comfortable to drive by car, so they choose

to take

that. Nowadays, we sit all day it would enhance our health when we would just

use

our feet to go to work. If the government would

use

vehicle usage controls, most people would start to ride their bike more often because mostly, it is easy to do it. The

second

reason is the protection of our environment. Car emissions produce a lot of CO2 and furthers climate change. Most of the time, people don’t take public

transportation

like bus or train, which would be much more sustainable, because it is very expensive.

For example

, the one-way train between Graz and Linz costs 40 euros. That’s why many students borrow their parent’s car, even if sustainability is important for them, because it is much cheaper. Encouraging public

transportation

by making them cheaper would motivate people to

use

them more often and protect our environment. To conclude, furthering alternative forms of

transportation

would enhance

health and the environment. Often, people are just too lazy to

use

their bike, which can be counteracted by controlling the

use

of vehicles.

Moreover

, making public

transportation

cheaper would be a great incentive for a higher

use

of them.
