All vehicles on the roads should be electric only. Discuss.
People who live in urban areas can feel refreshed and comfortable when going to the mountains or ocean. This is because the air in the mountain and ocean is clear, clean, and fresh. People usually breathe around 20,000 liters of air into their bodies a day. If people continue to breathe dirty air, we usually think that their lungs will be damaged because the dirty air is pumped into their lungs directly. However, universities and institutions in many countries have started to research the impact on the brain caused by dirty air and announced some results of the relevance between the brain and dirty air. That is, air pollution damages our brain as well.
According to research about the relevance between air pollution and the brain, when people stay or exercise in the environment of air pollution for a while, tiny particles of harmful materials in the air invade blood vessels in their brain. It is thought that this causes brain disease or nerve damage. This is particularly important for children because young children can be harmed by a small amount of hazardous materials. Another reason is that children breathe faster than adults and haven’t acquired enough immunity yet. Therefore, parents need to be careful of the environment that their children stay in such as keeping their children away from cigarettes, boosting their immune systems as well as using renewable energies in the home. That is, adults should know the quality of the air surrounding them and learn the chemicals that contribute to air pollution in detail.
Air pollution is a serious problem around the world because harmful chemicals cause damage to humans, animals, plants, and our Earth. The Japanese government is taking measures to prevent air pollution by some laws and regulations. However, we should make efforts to keep the air clean as well. For example, we should travel by foot, by bicycle, or public transportation. Furthermore, we should save energy and use renewable energies. It is difficult to have only electric vehicles on the roads right now, but first, let’s start from what we can do.
I think that plastic is the worst form of pollution. My reasons are…
1. Plastic drives sea creatures to their death because sea creatures eat fine particles of plastic.
2. Plastic is an artifact. Therefore, plastic never decomposes into the ocean or ground.
3. When plastic is burned, a huge amount of greenhouse gases is emitted. The greenhouse gases cause global warming.
