Increasing the price of petrol is the best way to solve green traffic and pollution problems, to what extent do you agree or disagree? What other measures do you think might be effective?

The best way to solve

traffic

jams and

pollution

problems

is to increase the

price

of

petrol

. I totally disagree with

this

opinion and

then

I will give some effective solutions. The main reason why increasing the

price

of

petrol

cannot solve growing

traffic

and

pollution

problems

is because driving a

car

is more comfortable than taking public

transportation

.When

people

drive their

car

, they can have their own space but when

people

take public

transportation

such

as the metro or bus, they will not even have their own standing room during the rush hours. Another reason is that driving a

car

is more flexible. Bus and metro have their own timetable so if

people

want to take them, they must follow their timetable. Normally the waiting time for public

transportation

is too long so

people

can waste a lot of time on it.

As a result

, I think

people

cannot give up driving their own

car

because of the increasing

petrol

price

.

However

, I believe there are other effective ways to solve those

problems

.

First

of all, the

government

can provide some benefits to encourage

people

to decline the frequency of driving.

For instance

, the

government

can waive the public transport fee, which can encourage

people

to take public

transportation

.

Secondly

, the press and

government

can make publicity that population

problems

can affect our life because of growing

traffic

. The press can use videos or newspapers to tell

people

how carbon dioxide which is produced by growing cars affects the air. In conclusion, I completely believe that increasing the

price

of

petrol

cannot solve growing

traffic

and

pollution

problems

.

This

is because driving a

car

is more comfortable than taking public transport and driving a

car

is more flexible. The more effective solutions are that

government

provide some benefit for

people

who take public

transportation

and the press and

government

make publicity of how

pollution

problems

affect our life.
