"Automobiles: good or bad"

Just as a coin has two facets , this statement too has it pros and cons . Both the facets has its own importance and one can't ignore any of it.

There is no denying fact that automobiles are a boon to modern world and has made it easy for people to travel anytime and anywhere in limited time span.Be it passengers travelling around the world through train and flights or shipments being transferred over-seas through ships and cargos , they have revolutionized both tourism and import/export industry.Even in our day to day life we are highly dependent on it .From going to school , college or offices etc to delivery boys safely dropping people's package , everything revolves around automobiles.

Life today has become unimaginable without automobiles.

Apart from all these , automobile industry has generated tremendous employment from engineers to skilled mechanics to raw material producers and suppliers etc.Most of our youth have an inclination towards going in this field and persuing their careers as the field is ever-blooming.Emergency deaths have also gone down due to automobiles as patients can be immediately taken to hospital without much fuss.

But , with all these positive aspects there is a glooming side too.Automobiles is a major contributor of air and noise pollution that has deleterious effects on our environment.

Automobiles today have become a "status symbol" and people are not much interested in concepts of car pooling. This can be proved by showing the number of pre-bookings of car made by people when ever a new model is about to be launched.

The fuel needed for automobiles is non-renewable resource and is limited and with ever increasing demand of the same , the day is not far when we will run out of our fuel resources.The gaseous emissions like CO2, unburnt soot particles etc are green house gases and contributes to global warning that is responsible for melting of glaciers and increase in sea level.The noise pollution caused by jets and aircrafts can impair hearing capacity of a person and can make him deaf.The gaseous pollution can badly affect respiratory passage of a person resulting in asthma , bronchitis , emphysema etc.

By this we can draw a conclusion that automobiles no doubt have revolutionized the modern world with their advantages but we can also not ignore the detrimental effects it has on our environment..
