Car ownership has increased so rapidly over the past thirty years that many cities in the world are now ‘one big traffic jam’. How true do you think this statement is? What measure can governments take to discourage people from using their cars? Using more and more private cars in order to travel in cities and having congested roads for hours a day are growing concerns which need citizens’ cooperation and authorities’ technical plan to combat the issue. Some say this issue has roots in the culture of a society and all people, the authorities and public, are responsible for in charge of this problem and the type of the government can massively affect this subject. In those countries which where governments do not have any respect admiration for citizens, people have not a sense of honor to others and this can lead to consequences many social problems such as environmental issues which these days are common all around the world. Then having an elected government can be the first necessity of a society to have individuals' folks’ cooperation in such issues. Education as an effective way in solving communities’ problems, can be both an effective and economical way. Schools should train children about the environment and our activities doings’ impacts on it, and that how they will benefit tomorrow if today they respect their surrounding area. Children should be respected in order to give the society loyalty, and the more governments spend on primary schools’ upgrading and rising raising the standards, the better the next generations’ environment. Although having a democratic society and modern schools can address this issue, more measures are necessary which governments and authorities should take to overcome this problem. Modern lifestyle needs faster and more comfortable public transportation systems and if municipalities do not provide a rapid and comfortable one, people would select private cars for their journeys and our cities will burst at the seams. Furthermore, the electronic‐government is another method to deal with this problem, and not only can it reduce the amount of travels and consequently air pollution, but it also can reduce costs. Consequently, I suppose we should have a coherent policy on this issue and both informing people about the results of private car overusing and providing infrastructures can be the solutions.
