DANGEROUS DRIVING IN BRITAIN
In common with many countries Britain has serious environmental
problems. In 1952 more than 4,000 people died in London because of the
smog. The government introduced new laws to stop smog from coal fires and
factories and the situation improved a lot. Today London is much cleaner but
there is a new problem: smog from gas. In December 1991 there was very
little wind in London and pollution increased a lot. As a result about 160
people died from pollution in just four days.
Pat of the problem is the new “out of town” shopping centers. In the
past people often walked to shops near their homes or went by bus. Now
many people drive to the new shopping centers. As a result the small shops
have disappeared and more people have to travel to do the shopping. Critics
say that Britain needs better ad cheaper public transport. Transport in Britain
is very expensive. An early morning train trip from Glasgow to London can
cost about 100 pounds (about 150 US dollars). A short 15 minute bus trip can
cost over 1 pound (over 1,5 dollar).
Many people are trying to reduce the use of cars in Britain. Some cities
now have special bicycle path and many people cycle to work. Some people
also travel to work together in one car to reduce the pollution and cost.
Sometimes people take “direct action”. In1995, for example, many people
wanted to stop a new road near Newbury. They built houses in trees and lived
there for many months. It took a long time to force people out of the trees
before work on the road continue.
