Increasing the price of petrol is the best way to solve growing traffic and pollution problems. To what extent do you agree or disagree? What other measures do you think might be effective?
Traffic
and environmental Use synonyms
pollution
have become vital Use synonyms
problems
in the present. It is argued that these two Use synonyms
problems
can be solved by increasing petrol prices. I strongly disagree with Use synonyms
this
statement as there are several other causes to increase Linking Words
traffic
and Use synonyms
pollution
.
In my opinion, poor public Use synonyms
transportation
and poor road conditions are the two main reasons among many others. If public Use synonyms
transportation
is at a good level, people do not tend to use their private Use synonyms
vehicles
during rush hours. For an instance, a Sri Lankan university did a survey about reasons to use personal Use synonyms
vehicles
, and poor public Use synonyms
transportation
turned out to be the primary reason. Use synonyms
On the other hand
, damaged roads increase Linking Words
traffic
congestion significantly. A good example would be the Colombo - Galle main road in Sri Lanka, which experienced a high volume of Use synonyms
traffic
Use synonyms
due to
damaged areas. Linking Words
This
was sorted after the road development authority fix these places. In terms of Linking Words
pollution
from Use synonyms
vehicles
, gasoline is only one reason which causes environmental Use synonyms
problems
. But there are other causes as well, Use synonyms
such
as disposing of used engine oil and old tires, Linking Words
disposing
vehicle-washed water and chemicals etc. Considering these points, I do not believe that Add the preposition
ofdisposing
pollution
or Use synonyms
traffic
problem can be sorted by increasing fuel prices.
Use synonyms
However
, the government can take other effective measures to mitigate these controversial Linking Words
problems
. The very first solution is improving public Use synonyms
transportation
, which can contribute to the reduce Use synonyms
traffic
immensely. Use synonyms
For example
, Bangladesh replaced the old railway system with a new electric train system that has high-class facilities which reduced private vehicle usage by 65% on weekdays. The second solution is to encourage people to buy electrical Linking Words
vehicles
Use synonyms
instead
of gasoline cars. Linking Words
This
directly supports to mitigation of the problem of carbon dioxide emission. To illustrate that, many European countries nowadays offer larger discounts to those who buy electric Linking Words
vehicles
, Use synonyms
as a result
, the usage of fuel has reduced significantly.
Linking Words
To conclude
, some individuals believe that rising fuel prices are the most effective way to solve increasing Linking Words
traffic
and Use synonyms
pollution
issues. Use synonyms
Nevertheless
, above discussed aspects prove that it is completely wrong and there are various other reasons that cause these Linking Words
problems
. Use synonyms
Also
, there are plenty of other measures that might be effective in terms of solving growing Linking Words
traffic
and Use synonyms
pollution
