Many people believe that the increasing number of cars in cities is the biggest source of pollution and waste. Others think that industries are the ones causing pollution. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

In recent decades,

cities

, especially metropolises, have faced more pollution than ever before.

As a result

, a controversy has arisen over what is the primary reason behind

this

predicament. While some people attribute it to the marked increase in

cars

, others would contend that the chief among all causes is industrial activities, which from my perspective, the latter is more accurate.

Although

cars

, undoubtedly, cause a detrimental effect on the urban environment, the catastrophe industrialism brings in its wake is much more disturbing. Emitting harmful gases to the air,

cars

have always been considered a danger to

cities

. The gravity of

this

problem,

nonetheless

, has been alleviated thanks to significant alterations. Electric

cars

are going into publicity as a substitute for conventional pollutant

cars

. The government,

furthermore

, is determined to take an environmentally friendly approach by allocating more expenditure on public transportation, which culminate in a decline in the number of

cars

.

Hence

, the side effects of overusing

cars

are going to be marginal in the foreseeable future. In stark contrast, never have been urban districts experienced

such

industrial growth in history. The modern lifestyle which consumerism plays a major role in, leads to a marked boost in the construction of factories, with the aim of providing a wide range of multi-coloured products for consumer society. Having occupied the suburbs, factories are likely to encroach into the heart of

cities

in the future. If it happens,

cities

’ degradation will occur. Unfortunately, not only does

this

damage ruin

cities

, but it

also

brings long-term consequences to the ecosystem in the shape of global warming and the extinction of species. By way of conclusion, both

cars

and factories are culprits for

cities

’ pollution. The industrial issue,

however

, is the pivot in which the catastrophe turns.
