Air traffic is increasingly leading to more noise, pollution and airport construction. One reason for this is the growth in low cost passengers'flights, often to holiday destinations. Some people say that governments should try to reduce air traffic by taxing it more heavily. Do you agree or disagree ?

The recent development of
air
traffic has resulted in the increasing of noise,
air
pollution and more land is used to build airports and runways. The growth of low-cost and holiday flights is one factor to
this
, which
cause
people to ask the government to raise the tax
of
Suggestion
on
air
travel
.
However
, I do not believe that
act
Suggestion
the act
should be enough to reduce the consequences and there can be economic disadvantages caused by it.
First
and foremost,
air
travel
has been the most modern type of transportation
also
less harmful to the environment than cars, trains or ships. It is true that the sound of an
air
plane
is so loud that it can be heard from far away and
cause
short-time deaf to people that are nearby.
However
,
that is
why the airport is so large to reduce the effect of its noise to local people, and a
plane
does not stay
Suggestion
is not staying
in a sky for a long time that it cannot
cause
harm to people on the ground.
Moreover
, the pollutions caused by a
plane
are usually minor and have
smaller effect
Suggestion
a smaller effect
to the ozone layer than car
exhumptions
immunity from an obligation or duty
exemptions
of to the sea than oil spills.
On the other hand
, taxing flights heavily and
icreasing
becoming greater or larger
increasing
plane
tickets may succeed in discouraging people to
travel
by
plane
.
However
, that may
also
do harm to the development of
air
transport, fewer people using its service can lead to bankruptcy of many
air
express and countries like France or Germany can suffer economic loss
since
Suggestion
for
air
industry is very important to them.
Furthermore
, apart from
plane
Suggestion
the plane
a plane
, people will likely choose cars and trains or ships to
travel
and that will only increase the risks of pollutions. In summary,
air
traffic is not only more eco-friendly than other long distance transports but it is only a vital part of a country’s
economic
Suggestion
economy
economies
.
Therefore I
Accept comma addition
Therefore, I
believe raising the tax of
air
travel
is not a practical way to solve the problems,
instead
we should ask and fund the development of technology in
air
transport so that it can
cause
less problems.
