Increasing the price of petrol is the best way to solve growing traffic and pollution problems. To what extent do you agree or disagree? What other measures do you think might be effective?

Nowadays,

air

contaminants and

traffic

have become catastrophic phenomena. Many

people

believe that government should increase the price of petrol to tackle these problems. I totally disagree with

this

statement. From my perspective, there are other effective solutions to resolve these obstacles. It is undeniable that one dominant cause of

traffic

and pollution are mass private car use.The biggest problem with increasing the price of petrol is that

this

causes growth in the

cost

of commute and transportation either by public transport or private cars.

of living would rise as well which will eventually lead to a less safe country.

may find pickpocketing and burglarising the way to earn money. In my view, other steps should be taken to control these crises. The

, in terms of

cost

of fuels is not a practical policy to reduce
