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

Over the

last

few decades our world has advanced to an unimaginable rhythm

however

it did not bring just scientifical discoveries and healthcare improvements, it

also

brought serious issues, one of them being

pollution

, some argue that the best way to solve

pollution

problems it's by increasing the

price

of petrol which would lead to solving

traffic

and

thus

pollution

, I agree with the statement but even so, I believe that there are other measures that we can take to limit contamination to the minimum possible. A study from 2017 showed that the higher gasoline prices reduce

traffic

flows with an average size effect of -0.04,

also

, people tend to take more public transportation on peak hours reducing

pollution

overall

,

additionally

, another investigation from 2020 revealed that it does not only reduce

traffic

flow but by every 1% increased in fuel

price

there is a 0.4% reduction in the number of fatal road

traffic

accidents, without a doubt the growth of petrol

price

reduces not only but

also

,

traffic

and

as a result

pollution

and vehicle-involved accidents.

Although

what has already been mentioned can greatly reduce

pollution

, it is extremely important that one stick to these measures if he is interested in reducing even more environmental

pollution

, which

are

recycling and reusing, limiting the use of plastic bags, using fans

instead

of air conditioner and afforestation.

To sum up

, what has already been mentioned, I believe that increasing the

price

of petrol is the best way to solve

pollution

and

traffic

problems,

however

, there are other measures that can

also

help take care of

this

issue.
