The best way to solve the world's enviromental prolem is to increase the price of fuel. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

Environmental issues like

pollution

are the scourge of today's modern world. Some are of the opinion that increasing

fuel

costs is an effective way to curb

pollution

. I completely disagree with

this

statement as adopting

this

measure is not an efficient approach. The essay will

further

explain the reason for my viewpoint.

Firstly

, a

fuel

price hike is not a sustainable solution to curb the issues affecting the environment. Individuals will still depend on using fossil

fuel

-driven vehicles as there are no affordable alternate renewable fuels available in the market.

Consequently

, increasing the gasoline costs doesn't deter people from buying automobiles that contribute to the increasing carbon

pollution

in the world.

For example

, in India the

fuel

prices are skyrocketing

however

, people are purchasing more cars. The year 2020 saw the biggest buyer surge in the Indian automobile industry. So, marking up

fuel

prices is not helpful in the reduction of

pollution

.

Also

,

although

carbon emission from the vehicle is a major contributor to global environmental problems, it is not the only one. There are other factors that cause harm to the environment

such

as industrial pollutions, plastic waste, deforestation etc.

Moreover

, if the government is concentrating only on increasing the gas costs and turning a blind eye to other causes, it might not dwindle environmental issues. So,

instead

of reducing

fuel

prices, governing bodies around the world should spend funds to make alternate green energy options affordable.

For instance

,

instead

of bringing down

fuel

price government should subsidise electric vehicles.

This

can aid in overall global

pollution

reduction. So to conclude, many people think that decreasing

fuel

price can help to solve environmental problems.In my opinion, it is not a sustainable solution as individuals will still

use

motorized vehicles that cause

pollution
