【正确答案】 One Way to Solve the Problem
Exhaust from vehicles driven by petroleum is considered as one of the most "active" contributors to air pollution. An effective way to cut down exhaust for improving air clarity is to impose tax upon purchase of vehicles driven by petroleum.
How does the tax help to improve current situation of air pollution? As far as I am concerned, it works from two aspects: First, the tax imposed upon purchase will definitely limit the growth of car's buying. Fewer cars in the street lead to less air pollution due to vehicle exhaust. Second, money collected in the form of tax is a new source of revenue, which can be appropriated to deal with the air pollution caused by exhaust from vehicles.
The tax imposed upon purchase of vehicles is supposed to be an effective way to solve the problem of air pollution not only on an individual basis but also on a governmental basis.
