Some people believe that car-free days are effective ways to reduce air pollution. However others argue that there are other ways that are more effective. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

While it is true that
air
contamination
is a major problem, some people have blamed cars for it and they have proposed to control their circulation. At the same time, others believe that

solutions should be considered when controlling
air
contamination
. To start with, it is generally accepted that reducing the
number
of vehicles on the roads will decline the
number
of pollutants which are daily emitted into the atmosphere.
This
is due to the excessive amount of substances that have been produced in fuel combustion. All these toxic substances go directly into the
air
.
Therefore
, if the
number
of cars is under control, the
air
will be less contaminated. One clear example of
this
could be seen in Madrid, in which city the
number
of vehicles is controlled by the council to preserve the environment.
Otherwise
, others would argue that
air
contamination
should be faced by controlling the increasing
number
of textile industries. What I mean by
this
is, there is currently an enormous quantity of factories which have been born to cover the market demand. It is well known that not only do these industries contaminate the water, but
also
the
air
.
For example
, we all know that Chinese textile factories' activity contributes significantly to damaging the environment and more specifically the
air
, as they emit tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. To sum up, I do support the theory that introducing car-free days will be useful when controlling the
number
of toxic pollutants that go directly into the
air
.
Nevertheless
, I am
also
aware that not only are cars responsible for
this
contamination
, but
also
it is fair to blame the textile industries for it. To conclude, I do believe that all these mentioned measures should be taken into consideration if as a society we want to breathe clean and toxic-free
air
