Fuel prices increased...... Why you should support (2)

I partly support the fuel increase because:-


1) Less motorcycle stuntmen wannabes and the 'feared riders'

Last time whenever I pass near schools there would be a few students trying the ride on one wheel if not fly with both(especially after school) but now, they are no where to be seen. I would credit this to the fuel increase. At least they would now consider their un-entertaining act. At least unwanted deaths or injuries could be reduced (what if that person die, who's to blame?). The number of riding thiefs should if not permanent then temporarily be down for a while unless they are that efficient in targeting and scouting.


2) Less pollution

Our Earth is facing a very critical moment, frequent unexpected freak weather could very well be caused by global warming. Earth whether we like it or not can go on without us but we can't without Earth. How do we make people know what critical means? I think it's till we ourselves experience huge massive disaster that we realiase.

In the show The 11th Hour, a person mentioned that we are like 'invaders' which feeds on earth just like how bacteria grows on wet bread (the science experience most of us did). I didn't believe until i saw it and thought that it was quite true.

Here's the link http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&tab=wl
(zoom to any Town eg. KL and look at the greens and buildings)

In the name of development, we had taken over the surface of earth. We formed a crust on the surface of Earth with our buildings. Same like how bacteria grows on bread.

Air is perhaps one of the most important and yet it's the worse polluted. There is no one man-made filter which could clear the air as wonderful as how trees do.

Before the fuel prices increased, people everywhere were going green and encouraging others to pollute less. The most famous is that we should cut back on green house gasses. YES to less air-cond, YES to public transport, YES to carpool-ing. All in the name of reducing green house gasses. There were also calls to appreciate nature more.


However, when prices surged up, many complained (as said earlier we will only realize after a disaster). Before the occurance, there were calls for cut in usage but when certain measures which led to such cuts in a different way generated an opposite stand. FYI (for your info) and logically speaking, to tackle problems related to pollution it needs to done in massive measures and not just a certain portion of the population baring in mind the criticallity of the situation. Of course when fuel prices increase, prices of other comodities would follow on to increase and some might decrease. Instead of saying the need to spend more, try looking from the point of appreciation. Appreciate it more (cut wastage).
