Both government investment in public transport systems and reductions in public transport ticket prices will help to reduce transport pollution greatly. Do you agree or disagree with this statement?

Nowadays, air

transportation

become a big problem in many countries. In order to gradually reduce

pollution

Use synonyms

, some individuals believe that

government

Use synonyms

should invest money to expand public

transportation

Use synonyms

systems and offer lower public transport fares. In my opinion, I partially believe in those suggestions as I strongly think that other solutions should be implemented along with them which I will explain in the following paragraphs.

First

Linking Words

of all, it is an undeniable truth that investment in public transit systems and reductions in

transportation

Use synonyms

fares could help to reduce

pollution

Use synonyms

as they can convert people who usually use personal

cars

Use synonyms

to use other modes of transport

such

Linking Words

as metro, train, bus and ferry.

However

Linking Words

, the

pollution

Use synonyms

issue could not be greatly solved without other implementations. My

first

Linking Words

suggestion is to reduce the number of

cars

Use synonyms

running in the city by issuing extra tolls before the

cars

Use synonyms

enter the city.

Then

Linking Words

the

government

can utilise

this

money to plant more trees in the pathways or alongside roads.

This

method has been used in Singapore for over a decade and it can prove that people tend to use fewer private

cars

Use synonyms

.

Furthermore

Linking Words

, the

government

Use synonyms

should encourage their citizens to own more electric vehicles. In Norway,

for example

Linking Words

, there is a policy in which people who own traditional fuel

cars

Use synonyms

need to pay more expensive taxes than others who drive electric vehicles.

Also

Linking Words

, the Norwegian

government

Use synonyms

stated clearly that they will convert all vehicles in the country to zero-emission in the

next

few years.

As a result

Linking Words

, the majority of

cars

Use synonyms

in Norway now are more eco-friendly and there is less air

pollution

Use synonyms

from

transportation

Use synonyms

. To conclude, with all reasons taken into account, I strongly believe that improving transport systems and reducing their prices partially contribute to reducing air

pollution

Use synonyms

.

However

Linking Words

, other solutions

such

Linking Words

as reducing the number of

cars

Use synonyms

in the city and using zero-emission automobiles are more important to reduce that

pollution

Use synonyms

as there are successful cases in Singapore and Norway.
