Task 7





The previous few years have seen significant development in the industrial sector which led to an increase in pollution rate and caused various environmental issues. One of the recent important issues that we are facing and got the attention of many is “Global Warming”. As recently the Global temperatures on both land and sea have increased because of different issues. Most people know that owning a car impacts on the environment – but less are aware that buying new clothes and going out for dinner also result in CO2 pollution.


The amount of the CO2 increase in many ways. For example, by cars. Nowadays cars cause a lot of CO2 in new modern city. That is because almost everybody in the world used cars. Cars that run solely on gasoline create air pollution and consume petroleum (Miller). In many ways it can rise the temperature of the city. The percentage of the CO2 different between every type of cars. Four wheel cars make almost double amount of CO2 as salon cars.

There are many solutions for this issue in project called “Cool City”. This city like a friend of the earth. One of these solutions is that to change the life style. In this city you should change the way of the transportation. You can walk to the job or use public transpiration for example. Moreover, the number of cars will reduce in this city. However, the power came from sun, wind and water. So the amount of CO2 will reduce. As a result the carbon footprint will reduce as will. In addition, that will cut its energy usage by 50-70 per cent. (Masdar’s green dream is not for all)

It is clear that “Cool City” aims to provide people healthy environment by reducing the increase of CO2 in the environment. Moreover, it is hard to change the life style but is someithng we should to use of it to save our earth. In my opinion, if we reduce the number of the cars, the CO2 will drop down fast. However, the government should make the people put filters in the cars and check up the cars.
