Increasing the price of petrol is the best way to solve growing traffic and pollution . To what extent do you agree or disagree? What other measures do you think are effective?

It is being argued that the best way to solve increasing

gridlock

and

pollution

problems is by hiking the price of

petrol

. In my opinion, I strongly agree, owing to the fact that it reduces the rate at which people buy

petrol

, which might result in

Also

to reduce traffic congestion, as well as

is that the cost of

For example

, the government of Singapore increased the price of

petrol

from five Singapore dollars to fifteen dollars per litres in 2016, which tripled the amount they bought a litre of

in the past.

On the other hand

, introducing sustainable energy sources,

such

as wind power, solar power and hydro power to run vehicles and industrial machines are another measures to reducing

gridlock

pollution

in the community.

petrol

is a major and popular source of running machines and cars, but introducing other sources could help reduce bottlenecks, owing to the fact that
