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

Over the recent years, travelling by
aeroplane
has dramatically increased thereby, posing more threat to the environment.
This
happened in response to low costs on
aeroplane
tickets and reduced travel time.
Although
some people believe that increased
taxation
on airlines will result in a reduced number of
air
traffic, I do not agree with
this
notion. The following paragraphs will highlight my opinion along with relevant examples. Increased
aeroplane
taxation
will have grievous consequences for the economy of countries that depend on tourism. More specifically, increased
taxation
will result in more expensive
aeroplane
tickets.
Consequently
,
this
may limit many people from travelling by
air
. And the destination countries may suffer from financial loss.
For instance
, holidays in Turkey and Egypt are incredibly popular among the population of Uzbekistan. The main reason that makes the holidays in the aforementioned countries affordable are low airfares. Higher airfares will only affect lower-income families, which would be unfair and lead to increased stigma.
Additionally
, some travels are possible only by
air
. Since in todays' society people it is normal to relocate to another country and work, expensive
aeroplane
tickets would deter their loved ones from coming and meeting them in person. Rather than increasing airways
taxation
, governments can invest in developing other means of long-distance transportation,
for example
, overnight trains and sleeper busses. To conclude, there is no doubt that
air
flights detrimentally affect the environment;
however
, solving
this
issue by increasing tax will lead to other problems.
Therefore
, I believe that governments should find other ways to tackle
this
issue.

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
