Some people think an international car-free day is an effective way to reduce air pollution. Others think there are more effective ways to do this. Discuss both sides and give your opinion

Many mankind considers that 24 hours travelling without vehicles is the better method to go down the

air

pollution

.

By contrast

, some of them believe that there are different ways to do

this

. I would argue that mankind should find other ways to resolve

this

issue. On the one hand, prohibiting

cars

in the

traffic

for a day might be a good method to prevent

pollution

. Fossil fuels

such

as natural gas, oil or coal are used in electricity generation for industrial and private consumption.

Moreover

, carbon dioxide is emitted from the burning of fossil fuels.

In addition

, road

traffic

emissions from petrol or diesel engines increase carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides.

This

leads to

air

pollution

in the world. There are

also

an estimated 1.5 billion vehicles on our planet. If we forbid

cars

to travel for one day, we can not solve

this

trouble radically.

On the other hand

, we might resolve

this

issue by diverse methods.

Firstly

, we can limit the number of

cars

on the road by increasing the gas tax.

Thus

, governments might be able to invest

this

petrol revenue in the infrastructure of roads.

For example

, oil prices are going up in most states.

Therefore

, a great deal of

cars

in the

traffic

is decreasing.

Consequently

,

air

pollution

in

this

area would be decreased.

Secondly

, improving public

transportation

is another manner to reduce

air

pollution

.

For instance

, well-developed countries incentivise travellers to use public

transportation

. Human beings might not prefer to

traffic

their own

cars

.

Thirdly

, municipalities can set up

traffic

-free zones in the city centres.

Consequently

, the number of

cars

and fossil fuel emissions are diminished in the forbidden region. İn conclusion, while ı acknowledge that one-day banning fossil fuel consumed

transportation

motors might be the remedy for

pollution

, I would argue that limiting the number of

cars

on the road by increasing the gas tax, improving public

transportation

and setting up

traffic

-free zones in cities are the better ways to resolve

this

issue.
