              Future Means of Transport


              Petrol,  diesel  and  gas  pollute  the  air.  Solar  energy  and  electricity  are

              now  used  to  run  vehicles.  Hydrogen  gas  is  also  being  used.  Modern
              technology in vehicles enables less fuel consumption.





               *  The  movement  of  people  or  goods  from  one  place  to  another  is  called

                   transporta on.
