friendly means of
transport
The life quality of about 97% of European citizens which are
living in urban areas is directly influenced by the urban
environment quality, these ones being exposed at pollution
levels which exceed the qualitative objectives established for
the EU.
 Electric locomotive
The emergence of electric locomotive in the late nineteenth century, represents a
milestone in the history of rail transport. Its evolution was favored by the advantages
it offers: facility and safe operation, higher powers and compliance with
environmental princes.
The first experiments were carried out in Germany:

German Locomotive TAURUS,

made by Siemens
The most modern type:
Curiosity! In Hungary:
"Willy" - the first
train in the world
that runs on solar
panels. According
to the developers,
so the trains will
move himself all
conventional
electric trains in
Europe because
they are more
environmentally
friendly.
GREEN CARS, friends with nature
 Ecocars
Green cars could bring big changes in
terms of the evolution of global
warming.
Green cars are based on hydrogen,
and what issue is neither more nor
less than water. The engine of this car
is based on the reaction between
oxygen and hydrogen. So it's a
biochemical reaction, creating energy.
The speed of such machines does not
exceed the mostly 45 miles per hour,
but the city is ideal, especially
considering the traffic. It can go about
160 miles on one tank of hydrogen.
These machines not only consume less,
but protects .
In addition to those mentioned above, there are cars
that run on biodiesel made from rapeseed oil. This is
biodiesel, ecological biodiesel.

! In Iceland there are already first hydrogen

station in Europe, which produces oxygen and
hydrogen with water and electricity.
The bicycle
 Transport and especially individual transport
is not only a question of energy consumption
or emissions but also space. On the streets of
a city we see on each side of their cars, large
parking spaces in front of supermarkets or
covered parking.
 Cycling has a major role in any Sustainable
Urban Transport Plan. It helps reduce
congestion, air pollution and local emissions
that cause global warming. 23% of car trips
are less than 2 miles (about 3 km), a distance
that can be covered easily by bike in less than
15 minutes. If people choose to do some of
these trips by bike, we could have a
considerable impact on local congestion and
pollution.
 Benefits:
Save the urban space
Save money
Promote health and wellbeing
Without waiting for congestion
Without urban
noise
Reduce stress
Strengthen
muscles
 Other green transport:
Tram
Subway
Skateboard
Parachute
Rowboat
and …
 The horse
For a long
time, the horse
was the fastest
means of
transport.
