How does public transportation cut carbon emissions versus private cars?

Carbon emissions are those stemming from the burning of fossil fuels and the manufacture of cement, and public transport is all forms of transport that are available to the public, such as trains, ships, buses, and planes, and fares are charged.

The carbon emissions are a great obstacle to transportation, especially public and private cars.

In most cases the emissions from the carbon dioxide block visions which result in poor vision.

The aftermath of the emissions is accidents either by head colluding or missing of length due to poor vision.

What influences people's transport choices?

Factors such as comfortability, security, fastness, transport fare, and the nature of luggage being transported, influence people's choice of transportation.

For those who may not be able to sit for very long hours traveling and think of high security against bandits, robbers may prefer to travel by planes where they are available.

Can tech advancements make private transport greener?

Yes, technological advancement can make private transport greener. There are modifications in the transport sector where electric vehicles don't burn fossil fuels that will harm the environment and will allow free vision.

Electric vehicles are fast and have little or no fossil fuels that affect the atmosphere, and prevent private transport.

It also changes the way that private transports live. And enable people to travel faster and farther by car and other means of transportation.

It makes it easy to keep track of goods and avoid pilferage in bulk transportation.

How can governments boost public transport use sustainably?

The government can equally provide agencies like road safety to see to the security of the passengers in the form of rescue missions in the event of accidents.

The government can also give a task holiday or discount on public transport. It can also provide. Besides, it could equally provide means of transportation information of loans to make it more available for consumption.

What social/economic factors affect transport decisions?

The economic factors that affect transport decisions are; inadequate finance to purchase means of transportation such as planes, buses, ships, and boats.

The viability of the transport is any economic factor such as distance, climate, product, duration, time, and routes.

A long distance may attract stress and some drivers and pilots may not want to embark on such a journey.

Some traveling routes are rough, affecting easy accessibility. The time taken to arrive at a destination may affect the choice of transportation decision.

This is my story for the week and I would like to invite @vickyson @josepha and @dave-hanny to join the contest.
