In some cities people are choosing cars instead of bicycles, while in other cities riding bikes is replacing cars. why is this the case? which development do you think this better?

In recent times,

cars

appear to be being replaced by

bicycles

while in others, the opposite trend seems to be occurring. Personally, I believe that

bicycles

are more environmentally friendly, but

cars

are an excellent alternative due to their efficiency and comfort and the advantages of

this

will be explicated

further

. The

first

and foremost reason for the flourishment of the bicycle trend is that it offers a viable answer to many of the world's environmental problems.

In other words

, no harmful gases are emitted by

bicycles

as evidently seen in the case of hazardous gases generated by automobiles that emit greenhouse gases

such

chlorofluorocarbons, carbon monoxide contributing towards global warming.

Secondly

, riding

bicycles

mitigate the issue of traffic congestion as well as contribute towards physical fitness.

For example

, there is a scheme launched by the Indian Government ' Bicycle sharing Programme as an initiative to protect the environment.

Hence

, apart from eco-friendly

bicycles

also

ameliorate traffic issues.

On the other hand

,

cars

provide people with the freedom of movement. The ease of transportation that a car brings is significant than any other form of vehicle and one can go from a destination to another without wasting their precious time .

Therefore

, time and distance are not barriers anymore.

Secondly

,

cars

can give comfort while travelling compared to

bicycles

for long journies.

For instance

, one can read books, listen to favourite songs or even play with children in the car.

Finally

, families can go together.

This

becomes especially helpful when there are elderly, the disabled or even sick members in the families. In conclusion. I reiterate that undoubtedly,

bicycles

are

in a matter of privacy, comfort, security cannot be overlooked.
