    Practica 7.

    Currently, pollution and related-problems are increasing and it's necessary to implement a measure to limit it. Increasing the price of petrol or new taxes are a good way to limit its use but I think that it's necessary to do so by other means.
    For a long time, petrol and its derivatives have been the main fuel for many factories, and our transportation as well. However, its intensive uses have increased the pollution and decreased the quality of life in many cities. Because of that, many governments have started to take some measures to limit the overuse of oil; high prices and taxes are some of the ways that countries such  as Mexico have taken.
    Even so, actions mentioned before are affecting the over-consumption of oil. It's necessary to implement new technologies to replace our dependency on petrol. In this sense, some countries are developing new energy sources based on air, water, and so on. Personally, I think that improving public transportation could inhibit the use of cars and reduce the pollution.
    In conclusion, limiting the use of petrol is the best way to reduce the pollution derived from its overuse. However, searching for substitute energy sources is the challenge that governments need to face. Likewise, people need to be more conscious about the limited use of oil and its derivatives to help to decrease the pollution.

    Saludos desde México.

    The reason I hate phrases like "calm down" is because it makes it look as if the person getting angry is guilty of becoming too worked up or mad. Often, they are mad for a reason, and that reason may well be justifiable.

    Thank you Bamboo! Do you think it takes a long time to be able to grow used to the structure enough to speak fairly confidently/without having to put much thought into it? (That is, vocab etc totally aside)

    It isn't a proverb, it's an idiom. If something springs into your mind, it means that out of nowhere, you're suddenly reminded of something. It's when a thought appears suddenly and immediately in your mind. Hope this helps :)
