Can Green Transportation Becomes Reality? Green Vehicles! Green Trains! Green Aeroplanes! Green Ships!

e14 Contributor

Green transportation is definitely not new and many people have been discussing on it recently. So why are we not putting these green transportation thoughts into reality? Challenge this question if you have come across any good example or move. Green vehicles, Green trains, Green aeroplanes, Green ships, or something else? Please bear in mind that transportation is one of the major contributors of the global carbon emission!

    I agree that each person may choose to do what they think is "Green", but to have a measureable affect on the environment, you need a large group participating.  That is why you need the Green Technology solution.  Most people are too lazy to do even the small green practices.  If you don't believe me, go down the street on your next trash day and look at how much each family recycles verses what they throw away.

    The biggest problem is to define what is truely Green and what just looks like it is green.  In the end, the planet will decide which lifeforms it will support and which it will not.  The scientific evidence is clear, you can either evolve or die, and yet, there are the life extingusishing events that completely destroys most or all life on the planet and restarts evolution from a new base line.

    For me, I do those things that make sense to me.  As an engineer, I hate to waste anything, be it resources, energy, food, water, etc.  Others have a different philosophy and do things differently.  I don't lose any sleep because others do things differently.  I do what I can and go on.  If enough people do the right things, then we may  all prosper.  If not, we will all have to deal with the consequences of our past choices, both good and bad.

    Thanks,
