Some people think that international car-free days are an effective way of reducing air pollution;however, others think that there are other ways. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

Over the past few decades, the world has evolved and challenged substantially in many ways. The rate of
car
owners has multiplied over
this
period. Some people state that the ideal solution for eradicating problems caused by air pollution is international
car-free
days
, while others think that there are other plausible measures. At
this
point of juncture, both these views are analysed in the ensuing paragraphs to show that I agree with the latter statement.
Firstly
, conducting
car-free
days
among countries restricts a huge amount of carbon deposit to the
atmosphere
within a day, which is the prime reason why some people believe that
such
days
are to be prioritised.
However
, avoiding personal needs and schedules for a day does not bring significant changes to the detrimental effect on the
atmosphere
. To explain
further
, people tend to put off certain commitments and needs which most probably they commit on other
days
. In
such
scenarios, rather than saving the
atmosphere
from toxic fumes, it induces more impact in a long run.
Therefore
,
car-free
days
are not a feasible measure for reducing the impacts.
On the other hand
, the major reason why some individuals including me assert that there are other ways to face the challenge is that replacing fossil fuels
such
as crude oil and coal with electricity brings potential advantages in the bigger picture. To make it more clear, thousands of poisonous gases are emitted by petrol and diesel
cars
due to combustion.
In contrast
, electric
cars
use electricity to power up and run the whole mechanical properties of a
car
from power stores in cells, without releasing any pollutants into the air.
Therefore
, a significant rate of deadly substances could be avoided.
For instance
, "tesla" a US-based electric
car
manufacturer claims that an electric
car
saves the motherland from getting poisoned by approximately two tonnes of carbon each year, by a single
car
.
As a result
company's reputation and value have skyrocketed dramatically.

have benefits for a short period, it is improbable to be eradicated. While other concrete measures like electric

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
