The benefits and challenges of transport
| Benefits | Challenges |
| Most forms of transport are quick and easy and take us where we want to go. | Most vehicles are fuelled by non-renewable sources of energy that harm the environment. |
| Different types of transport are needed to take people long distances where walking and other modes of transport would not work. | Cars and other vehicles emit harmful carbon emissions that lead to global warming. |
| Large passenger vehicles such as buses and trains can carry larger numbers of passengers reducing the amount of cars on the road. | Electric cars are more expensive to buy than cars that run on petrol and diesel. |
| Some modes of transport, such as cycling and scooting have no impact on the environment and are a physical activity that is good for our health. | Public transport is more environmentally-friendly than cars but your travel needs to fit with a timetable and bus stops and train stations might not be close to where you want to go. |
| New technologies have meant that electric cars are now more available and impact less on the environment. |
