Sustainable Transportation

Sustainable transportation refers to systems and practices of moving people and goods that minimize environmental impact and promote social equity and economic viability. It encompasses modes of transport that are renewable, energy-efficient, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Sustainable transportation solutions include public transit (buses, trains), non-motorized options (walking, cycling), and the use of alternative fuels (electric vehicles, biofuels). The concept emphasizes the need to create transportation systems that meet current mobility needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. It aims to reduce reliance on fossil fuels, decrease air and noise pollution, improve public health, and enhance accessibility for all individuals. Overall, sustainable transportation seeks to create a more efficient, equitable, and environmentally friendly transportation network.
