text: As the ice near the poles shrink, the problem of global warming grows. Global warming has been linked to car emmisions. Limiting cars will limit emmisions of harmful gasses into the air. Sadly people seem to like their cars more than the environment. This is unfortunate because there are so many other ways to get around. For some reason people are just too close minded to try something else. If the amount of cars on the road shrinks, then the amount of pollution going into our envirenment will follow. Car-free days in major cities is a good way to get the car-free trend started. With large turnouts, it certainly gets people open to the idea(Source 3). Saying that, this will not work long term. Getting the ball rolling and keeping the ball rolling are two completely different things. Car free cities is a better long term strategy(Source 1).
