Although the prices of fuels have greatly increased over the last decade or two, it is argued that further increases in fuel prices are the only way to reduce world consumption of fuel and lessen pressure on the world’s fuel resources. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

In the most recent years , the world has shown an important increase in combustible prices.

However

, some people claim that rising fuel prices remain the most effective solution to decrease its high demand and massive exploitation. In my opinion, I completely disagree with

this

view and believe that

this

approach can be ineffective to solve

this

issue .

Firstly

,

this

way may not be sufficient to lead to a significant decrease in the consumption of combustible.

In other words

, fuels is an important input for transport practices and individuals still use them despite theirs costs because,

for example

,people who are far away from their workplace or universities will undoubtedly use vehicles or public transportations to move for their work and study and

therefore

their consumption of fuels will be not extremely changed by

this

path.

Thus

,

this

way will be not effective enough to reduce the consumption of

this

power source .

Secondly

,

this

proposal may lead to several economic problems if it will be applied. To put it simply, small industries in which fuels remain an essential product for their work will find many difficulties to support their high costs .

As a result

, the probability for these companies to have some financial problems and in some cases get bankrupt will be higher and

therefore

the economy of the nation that accepts

this

proposal will have

also

many problems .

That is

why

this

solution can engender many negative effects on the economy of small industries . In conclusion, despite that increasing combustible prices can discourage consumers from overuse, I believe that

this

approach is not effective enough to solve the problem of high demand for energy.
