▶ Your Answer : Many people use planes these days. Planes are considered to be the main expedient to travel abroad. In addition, using planes is safer than using cars to travel. However, I believe that cars have had more influence on society than planes have. Due to the fact that cars emit great amout of air pollutions that affects environment. Also, many people have cars, because it is cheaper to use cars instead of using planes.
To start with, cars have had great environmental effect ever since they were invented. Cars use oil as fuel, which emits detrimental substances to the environment, causing global greenhouse effect. This influence being exacerbated, because in these days, people are tend to buy more and more cars. In addition, population rate of people who uses cars are now higher than ever, contributing to the global warming. There is a research to support my opinion. A study was was conducted by environment department of Beijing University, showing that the global warming and environmental disasters caused by excessive amount of carbon dioxide. Furthermore, this carbon dioxide have been produced by cars, which emits carbon dioxide as a waste, indicating that cars are the main reason for global warming.
Secondly, it is widely known that cars are main transportation means. Whereas planes are so expensive for people to use lavishly, cars are cheaper than planes, so people relatively don't feel reluctance to purchace cars. As a result, only few people uses private jets and planes, because they can actually earn more money by using planes, since using planes can remunerate the cost of using planes. This is why people prefer using cars to using planes. To be specific, anthropology department of UCLA conducted a survey to find out which do they prefer between planes and cars. As a result, the survey showed that majority of people prefered using cars over using planes, becuase they use cars every day. Since cars have become everyday object. So without cars, they can not manage to do simple tasks, or will have difficult time to do.
In summary, it is difficult to figure out which have had more influence on society. I know that planes are essential part of transportation. Nevertheless, I believe that cars have had more influence on society, because of reasons I stated above.
