Some people think the best way to solve pollution problems is to increase the cost of fuel. Do you agree or disagree?

Answer:

Many people believe that the most effective way to handle pollution issues is to raise the cost of fuel. I disagree with this statement because there are several better ways to tackle this problem.

Admittedly, increasing the cost of fuel can result in a financial challenge for consumers. When the cost of fuel becomes higher, a few people cannot afford fuel to use for their individual transportation. This would lower the quantity of private vehicles on the road which in turn lead to reduced pollutant emissions. However, this solution can have a short-term effect because it does not affect everybody but those who are financially challenged.

Having said that, I prefer two alternative solutions which will have more profound impacts on society. Firstly, international and local authorities can improve public transportation in order to deter people from using their own vehicles. For example, thanks to government efforts in constructing infrastructure systems, in Vietnam, these days, there are wide ranges of public transportation such as highway trains and eco-friendly buses with affordable prices for citizens to make up their mind rather than traveling by private cars. Therefore, by commuting together in public transportation, residents can save not only the environment but also their budget spent on fuel. Secondly, the state can focus on developing electric environment-friendly vehicles. Without emitting emission into the air; these advanced vehicles will gradually enhance air quality as well as the environment. As a result, if governments constantly put their efforts into developing these types of vehicles, their citizens will have more choices to choose instead of using their own transportation to commute, so it will have a better influence on types of people.

In conclusion, I disagree with the solution which is to raise the cost of fuel. Instead, I believe that encouraging people to use public transportation and environment-friendly vehicles will make a great contribution to diminishing and solving pollution.
