Reducing air pollution
My hometown has witnessed severe air pollution for several years, alarming us of the inappropriate usage of fuel wastes as well as the increasing demand for cars.
To tackle the problem, the local authorities took urgent steps. ①Not only did they carry out strict regulations, but also fined industrial factories for fuel abuses. ②Besides, it was preferable to popularize the cars using new clean energy, which reduced the carbon dioxide emission. ③Most importantly, it is the government’s measures that called on people to get involved in reducing the source of air pollution, such as replacing private cars with shared bikes, etc.
Let’s spare no effort to make contributions to solving the air pollution problem in our hometown!

As is known to us all, air pollution is becoming more and more serious. This phenomenon caused our attention.
In order to deal with the problem, the government took some effective measures. Firstly, they carried out strict regulations, making some factories closed down or moved out of the city center. Secondly, cars and buses using new clean energy were produced, which reduced the carbon dioxide emission. Also, a lot of trees were planted on hills, fields and so on. Most importantly, it is the government’s measures that called on people to be involved in reducing the source of air pollution.
If every citizen makes efforts to protect our environment, the day will come when people will take in clean air.

Reducing air pollution
As is known to us all, air pollution is becoming more and more serious. This phenomenon caused our attention.
In order to deal with the problem, the government took some effective measures. Firstly, they carried out strict regulations, making some factories closed down or moved out of the city center. Secondly, cars and buses using new clean energy were produced, which reduced the carbon dioxide emission. Also, a lot of trees were planted on hills, fields and so on. Most importantly, it is the government’s measures that called on people to be involved in reducing the source of air pollution.
If every citizen makes efforts to protect our environment, the day will come when people will take in clean air.
