have created a lot of

serious problems in

congestion,

accidents and fast

fuel consumption

are responsible for a

good part of air

pollution in big

cities. All the time,

they are pumping

huge amounts of

waste gases into the

atmosphere. These

gases are very

harmful, causing

disease and even

death. Last winter,

car fumes formed

heavy smog over

Beijing, making the

sky gloomy for

weeks and

deteriorating

people's health.

One possible

solution is to design

and develop clean

cars and clean fuels.

public buses begin

to run on natural gas,

which does not give

off as much carbon

dioxide as the petrol.

But it may take

decades for the new

models of clean cars

to completely

replace the

traditional ones.

Another solution is

to develop modern

public transportation

systems and restrict

the use of private
