I think the environment will benefit most from the advances in transportation technology. These advances will help the environment by cutting down on pollution and reducing the amount of energy needed to travel. "Getting From Here to There" tells about how engineers have created electric and hybrid cars that use less gas per mile than conventional cars. This means they use less energy. Additionally, electric cars are powered by batteries. This is good for the environment. Electric cars cause less pollution than other cars. "The Future of Transportation" also points out that electric cars produce less pollution because their batteries emit no carbon dioxide. Other advances in public transportation will also help the environment. High- speed trains, such as those in Europe and Asia, also run on electricity. As with electric cars, the use of more of these high-speed trains would also reduce pollution. Technological advances in transportation have many benefits, but the environment is the biggest winner of all. Reread the passage. Follow the directions below. 1.
