significant because transport is a major user
of energy, and burns most of the
world's petroleum.
• The health impact of transport emissions is also
of concern.

20. • By reducing transportation emissions globally, it is
predicted that there will be significant positive effects on
Earth's air quality, acid rain, smog and climate change.
• This creates air pollution, including nitrous
oxides and particulates, and is a significant contributor
to global warming through emission of carbon dioxide.

26. Disadvantages :
• By reducing the transportation the worlds
be quarter of the free from pollution
• Transportation creates the noise and air
pollution which increase the high risks of
high blood pressure ,deafness ,
