In the contemporary epoch,
traffic
and
pollution
are increasing rapidly which is becoming a crucial issue for our society. It is reckoned that the rise in the
price
of
petrol
is the greatest way to resolve these
issues
such
as
traffic
and
pollution
.
However
, I find it challenging to concur with
this
statement.
This
essay would attempt to explicate my point of view and other effective measures in the forthcoming paragraphs at its length.
To begin
with,
fuel
is not the only cause of congestion and contamination problems. It
also
depends upon some other factors
such
as industrialisation, plastic etc. If the government increases the
petrol
cost
then
it will decrease the use of
petrol
.
As a result
, it will lead to the reduction of air pollutants but it will be a slight reduction that can not be observed on the ground level. To exemplify, In India, the administration imposed high taxes on
petrol
and diesel
thus
, the
fuel
price
increased but the level of
pollution
and
traffic
remained the same, proving that increase in the
price
of
petrol
is not the best way to deal with the issue like
pollution
and
traffic
.
However
, awareness among the citizens can play an indispensable role to get rid of these
issues
. It begs the question: how it can be possible to eradicate these
issues
? The answer is that in
this
modern world, individuals are not aware of the harmful effect of
pollution
. If the state organises the event to aware the people, citizens will reduce the use of fuels and other items which lead to the destruction of the environment like plastic, burning wood.
Moreover
, It is
also
necessary to provide the people with another alternative so that the common man can use them in place of
fuel
.
In addition
, the infrastructure of roads can be improved to remove the
traffic
problem. These measures will collectively take a great positive change for our environment.
To conclude, a rise in
fuel
price
is not the best way because
this
path is not sufficient to deal with
this
issue. It can slightly help to reduce
pollution
but we can not observe that reduction in reality. To get rid of these
issues
we have to take some other steps like awareness and alternate ways which collectively helps us.
