For and Against Pollution
These days, more and more people are using their own cars to commute. The increasing number of vehicles in our cities contributes to the high levels of pollution in the air. When faced with taking private cars or public transport, people react in different ways. I will discussà the for and against arguments of using private cars or public transport. People prefer private cars over public transportà for several reasons. Firstly, private cars are believed to be faster than public transport since people donââ¬â¢t have to spend their precious time waiting forà aà bus.In addition, bus-shelters are usually crammed with people. Secondly, you can goà directlyà from work to home much faster. Furthermore, there are people who donââ¬â¢t like to shareà places with unknown persons or they donââ¬â¢t like to be standing up duringà theirà journey. For instance, when taking a bus in rush hours it is very difficult to findà a spare seatà and eventually you end up graspin g a hand bar and trying to keep your balanceà so as not be flungà aroundà when the bus brakes. On the other hand, there are other people who prefer public transport to private cars.Using public transport is cheaper than usingà your own car. Ask people who use private cars on a regular basis how muchà à they spend on their cars every month. Not only do people have to pay for high parking pricesà and fuel, but also the expenseà incurred when they take their car to the garage to have it repaired. Unlike private cars, public transport has reservedà lanes in many cities; so long delays due to traffic congestion can be avoidedà byà taking a bus or a taxi. As farà asà theà environment is concerned, the use of public transport instead of private cars makes a difference.Forà example, if the people who use a busà were to useà their own vehicles instead,à thisà wouldà definitely contribute to air pollution. In conclusion, using private cars is expensive and produces more atmospheric pollution thanà public transport does. All in all, public transport isà provenà to be more efficientà and cheaper than private cars. For this reason, I feel that weà should allà try to use public transport whenever possible. It isà beneficial for our finances, our time, andà more significantly to ourà environment.
