Gasoline and diesel consumption has been increasing internationally because possessing a car is becoming common in developing countries and fuel-inefficient vehicles are becoming popular in developed countries. This trend has problems. First, gasoline and diesel are limited resources and hence can’t be used forever. Second, gasoline and diesel consumption, which emits carbon dioxide, will contribute to global warming. In order to deal with this problem, scientists have thought of an innovative method to generate fuels from animal and plant waste. However, technological development regarding this method is not mature enough and it is not still practical. Considering this reality, governments are reluctant to invest in this field.

It is true that free trade agreements with other countries may hinder economic growth temporarily or locally. However, they are the best way to promote economic growth overall.
First, some manufacturing companies can make profits by exporting their products internationally. This is especially true to Japan, which has been developing by exporting sophisticated merchandise such as vehicles. Japan will continue to depend on this method because it does not have enough natural resources.
Second, consumers can buy more affordable products and they will tend to purchase more. This trend will be possible because cheaper products will be imported from other countries freely. In addition, local manufacturing companies can import more affordable materials and therefore can produce inexpensive products. This will also contribute to boosting consumers’ motivation.
Third, companies which are based in different countries will have more opportunities to cooperate beyond their border. These companies can gain more chances to develop unprecedented goods or services. This kind of cooperation will lead to world peace and will contribute to economic stability accordingly.
In conclusion, free trade agreements with other countries will contribute to economic growth by boosting exports, making more affordable products available locally, and providing companies with opportunities to create novel products or services.
