Write a post responding to the professor&#8217;s question.<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>In your response, you should do the following:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Express and support your opinion.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make a contribution to the discussion in your own words.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>An effective response will contain at least 100 words.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;This week, we&#8217;ve discussed how carbon dioxide released by gasoline-powered (petrol-powered) cars pollutes the air and contributes to climate change. Let&#8217;s focus now on two proposals that governments can consider as they try to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from cars. One proposal is to improve and expand public transportation. The other is to provide financial support to companies that make electric cars and to consumers who buy them. Which proposal do you think is better? Why?&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Claire<\/strong>: I think improving public transportation would be more beneficial overall than giving tax breaks or rebates to particular companies and consumers. If taking a train or a bus is significantly easier, cheaper, and faster than driving a car, more people will want to use public transportation. With fewer cars on the road, there will be less air pollution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Paul<\/strong>: I believe that providing financial support to electric-car manufacturers and consumers is the better innovative long- term strategy. Many people live in rural areas, and they need their own vehicles to get around. These people would not benefit from, say, more train lines being built in a far-off city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ans:<\/strong> I ardently advocate for a heightened emphasis on improving public transportation to effectively combat the environmental challenges posed by increasing road traffic. Prioritising enhanced public transit addresses the root cause by significantly reducing the number of cars on the road, leading to a noteworthy decrease in carbon dioxide emissions. Public transit systems, efficiently accommodating more passengers per trip than individual cars, contribute to fewer vehicles and less traffic congestion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This approach not only mitigates pollution but also fosters community connectivity and reduces commuting stress. While supporting electric cars carries merits, challenges like environmental impact during production and dependence on fossil fuel-derived electricity exist. A robust public transportation system emerges as a more impactful and inclusive strategy for immediate carbon emission reduction, serving the diverse needs of citizens while safeguarding our environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-100\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/learn\/toefl-daily-writing-topic-people-who-are-arrested-for-selling-drugs-should-not-be-imprisoned\/\"><strong>Prev ( 27th Dec )<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-100\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/learn\/toefl-daily-speaking-topic-snakes-should-never-be-kept-as-pets\/\"><strong>Next ( 29th Dec )<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-background\" style=\"background:linear-gradient(135deg,rgb(255,206,236) 51%,rgb(152,150,240) 100%)\"><tbody><tr><td colspan=\"3\">&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Related Blogs&nbsp;<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>TOEFL iBT &#8211; Exam Dates, Fee, Eligibility, Preparation<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>TOEFL iBT vs. TOEFL PBT: Understanding the Differences<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>TOEFL Eligibility Criteria 2023: Check Qualification, Age<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>How to Prepare for NEW TOEFL Online: Study Guide 2023<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>TOEFL Exam Pattern 2023: Check Revised Pattern &amp;<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Types of TOEFL Exam: IBT, ITP &amp; CBT<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Download the Leverage App today.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.leverageedu.toefl\"><img  decoding=\"async\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Download Leverage IELTS - Play Store\"  class=\"wp-image-763580 pk-lazyload\"  style=\"width:156px;height:46px\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/blogassets.leverageedu.com\/media\/uploads\/2023\/01\/24174757\/Google_Play_Store_badge_EN.svg_.png\" ><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/in\/app\/leverage-toefl\/id6451136250\"><img  decoding=\"async\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"Download Leverage IELTS - App Store\"  class=\"wp-image-763581 pk-lazyload\"  style=\"width:158px;height:47px\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/blogassets.leverageedu.com\/media\/uploads\/2023\/01\/24174856\/Download_on_the_App_Store_Badge.svg-1-1024x304.png\" ><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-100\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-vivid-cyan-blue-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/blog\/category\/ielts\/ielts-daily\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Check out: IELTS Daily<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Need help to prepare for TOEFL?
