問題:Should Automobile makers stop selling gasoline-powered vehicles immediately?


 

イントロ


Although it is controversial, I do not think that they should stop it.
I have some reasons to support my opinion.

ボディ1


The first reason is that we don’t have alternative options.
Many companies have made electric cars but in order to generate the power, it needs fossil fuel. So, this would not be the best solution to address the environmental problems so far.

ボディ2


The second reason is that electric cars are too expensive.
For people in the rural areas, cars are vital because they don’t have enough transportations.
And I don’t think that people can afford them. Also, we are too dependent on the trucks and delivery services. Most trucks are gasoline-powered cars and if we are forced to use electric cars now, the poor people will be affected the most.

 

結論


Although the discussion is still ongoing, I strongly believe that we should not stop making gasoline-powered cars.

質問


・What if the government were increase subsidies for people purchase them?


I don’t think it will be the good solution,
As I said, it is not only about private possessing of cars.
It is also to do with public transportations and all the delivery services.
So, I don’t think it will be the solution.

 

・Some countries have been talking about forcing automobile makers to stop producing gasoline-powered cars. What do you think about it?


I don’t think that it will be a good idea because as I said we are going to use fossil fuel anyway, so it sounds like performance to me. The biggest way of polluting environment is using airplanes so if we want to deal with this problem seriously, we need to limit our use of airplanes, but I don’t think people will agree with the idea.
 

・Do you think that society should focus more on things like improving public transportations?


 
That is the better idea!
Especially people in the rural areas, it will be huge help.
The population in these areas are decreasing because of aging society and young people
tend to move to the big cities. The accidents by the elderly are serious problem but, in these areas, they have no options other than driving
 

・改善点 


 
・最後の質問が聞き取れへんかったーーーー、やばい。
・めちゃくちゃ苦手な話題でアイデアが全然浮かばへんかった。
