Petrol hike and Health
A caveat on Vehicles: Driving is injurious to our environment and now to your pockets .
Not only my pocket, so my life style is badly affected by Petrol hike but also my health is going to suffer. Wondering?? How?
Petrol hike rather would encourage people to use options like bicycles
and all, that should result in good health of the people.. how come badly affected??
Well, it is very very difficult to bring people out of their comfort zone, that is convenient traveling by their vehicles. If petrol hike is pinching them, they would rather opt for option like Diesel not bicycles and all. And diesel is less environment friendly and will hereby result in more air pollution.
That’s how.. even my health is going to suffer badly.
According to Anumita Roychowdhury, executive director-research and head of air pollution control team of The Centre for Science and Environment, levels of killer particles and ozone from diesel emission is enormous.
To back up the claim, the statistical figures which shows that diesel cars now comprise 36% of new car sales in India and that this figure is expected to grow up to 50% in near future was stated.
COURTSEY : Times of Assam.
Dunno.. where this is going to stop.. every thing invented and discovered for our comfort and convenience is now becoming object of discomfort and stress.

hi all i dont think that coz petrol is becoming costluy i dont think that ppl will use cycle instead of bike its totally rubbish insted ppl will use train bus auto not cycle
I agree!! Trains and buses are better option when distance is long. But I am from metro city like mumbai, where day by day, it is becoming just impossible to get in to buses and trains.
Bicycle is one of the best option.. many health conscious people are turning to… plus it suit one’s pocket too.
