Some people think that one of the best ways to solve environmental problems is to increase the cost of fuel for cars and other vehicles. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

It is disturbing that global warming has become a major concern in present times. An argument is made that increasing the

cost

of fuels for cars and other vehicles will overcome the environmental problems. I completely disagree with

this

statement.

This

essay will discuss the idea and will justify my opinion.

To begin

with, increasing the

cost

of fuels for cars and other vehicles will indirectly

increase

the

product

prices

.

In other words

, the products which are transported from different parts of the world will

increase

the purchase

cost

because of the fuel charges increased to deliver the

product

.

This

might reduce the demand for the

product

and there will be an uneven change in supply.

For example

, as the petrol and diesel price increases the

prices

of vegetable, dairy products, and online delivery charges are increased.

Therefore

in

this

was increasing fuel

prices

will indirectly

increase

the

prices

for daily needed products. Another reason why fuel

prices

should not be increased is, the

cost

of travel may become expensive. The

cost

of aeroplanes, trains, buses, cabs, and any other transport service will be on a higher side.

This

will indirectly affect the tourism sector, as many countries like the Maldives, Switzerland are highly dependent on tourism so the revenue generated from tourists will reduce and the resource becomes limited.

Moreover

, inter-country travel will

also

see a reduction in passengers travelling. To sum up, increasing the petrol and diesel

prices

will help to control environmental problems up to some extent, but on the other side, it will

increase

the

product

purchase

cost

and revenue generated through tourism will reduce.
