Your Answer ▼Some people argue that government should invest more money on road infrastructures rather than railways. However, I firmly believe that the government should spend tax for improving railways since it not only make a great contribution in easing environment destruction but also help to alleviate road congestion. To begin with, investing money on railways will play a great role in nature protection. These days, a growing number of citizens prefer to use private vehicles as a mean of commuting. With the emission from a great many cars, the quality of air will get worse and it is undeniable fact that air pollution will negatively impact us. According to the research that has been done by South Korea environment ministry, the number of private vehicles exponentially went up gaining approximately 200,000 cars for the last decades. If this trend going on, we might no longer breath fresh air as we used to . However, rail-based transportation is more environmentally friendly since it carries more publics than cars do. Therefore, it can reduce the total Co2 emission. On the top of that, the development of railways will lead citizens to use rail-based transportation such as subways more frequently, For instance, New York city where rail-based transportation is well organized, a majority of citizens choose subways for the sake of daily commuting. According to a poll which was conducted to figure out the reason of this preference, overwhelming respondents stated that subways are the most accessible option for them. Therefore, there is no reason that they should drive their cars if well organized transportation is accessible. To sum up, the advantages of investing on railways far outweigh the benefits of investing on roads. In this regard, the government should spend money on railways development 소요시간 40분 글자수 291 |
