Some people think that the effective way to reduce pollution is to tax the companies which cause it. Others think that there are better ways to achieve this. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

Pollution
in almost all parts of the world has become a menace to humans and various solutions have been proposed to overcome it. While some people suggest taxing the

an essential structural component of living cells and source of energy for animals; includes simple sugars with small molecules as well as macromolecular substances; are classified according to the number of monosaccharide groups they contain
carbohydrates
since they generate
pollution
while producing goods, others think that measures
such
as public awareness and regulation are more effective. I agree with the latter view. Imposing heavy taxes on companies is an efficient way to reduce as well as control air, water and ground
pollution
. Governments can use these taxes to create a fund that helps implement

as effluent treatment plants.

market, which
will reduce the consumption and

pollution
.
For example
, the government of Singapore has imposed heavy taxes on all manufacturing facilities and used these funds to clean rivers, install machines to absorb harmful gases in Singapore’s air.
Thus
a heavy tax on companies has played an important role in making Singapore a clean place to live.
On the other hand
, some people suggest that taxes are not an effective way to reduce
pollution
and stringent
pollution
regulation and public awareness are more important. Strong oversight of environmentally hazardous industries
such
as paper and plastic by regulators will be an effective step in controlling
pollution
.
Moreover
, if people are aware of environmental impacts of products through measurements
such
as ecological footprint, they will purchase products that are less polluting. In conclusion, I believe that heavy tax on companies is not an effective way to reduce
pollution
since it translates to increase in prices of goods which eventually harm the consumers. Governments should strictly regulate the polluting industries and make

the public aware

This
will not only make people more aware of their duty to protect their environment, but
also
make Earth a sustainable place to live.
