Should Private Car Owners Be Taxed For Pollution? Nowadays as the development of people's living standards, private car has become the fundamentally traffic tool. Consequently, it has contributed to the air pollution. So the officers are arguing about putting a pollution tax on private cars. From my point of view, it could be practical for the following three reasons. First and foremost, by putting this tax on the gas emission of private cars, people will consider the additional cost when they plan to go out by their car, thus they would choose to take the bus rather than by the private car. As a result, it can form an awareness of environment protection in people's minds. Meanwhile, by enacting the pollution tax, the amount of gas emission will definitely drop. So that the air would be fresher and people will not suffer from the disease caused by the polluted air and become healthier. Furthermore, it is our responsibility to do our part in the protection of environment. Everyone living the earth should care about our surroundings. In conclusion, the tax not only decreases the amount of emission but also protects the environment. So it is a good idea to implement this regulation.
