text: Reducing the car usage is beneficial to creating a cleaner and safer environment. Not only will this effect the environment but your  life as well. According to source 1 it states," Passengers cars are responsible for twelve percent of greenhouse gas emmision in Europe." Based on this fact I can acknowledge the fact of how automobiles can effect the greenhouse. The greenhouse is a cycle  in which can have a huge impact on our environment. If we destroy that then that may result in even more damages that are caused now. It also states, "Congestion was down 60 percent in the capital of France , after five- days of intesifying  smog..." In result, the smog then continued to places such as Bejing, China. Which I personally would consider to be  a  horrfic thing, considering China is very congested already and is one of  the most  pollued cities in the world. Some may argue of the fact that car usage is their main way from going to point A to point B , but there is proof that is effecting the cities around us. Experts have concluded that there is about 50 percent car intensive areas located in the United States. This is why car usage should be reduced to have create a better environment.
