Energy and Transportation

Energy is the ability to do work—like powering our homes, vehicles, and industries—most commonly derived from resources such as fossil fuels, nuclear, or renewables like solar and wind. Transportation involves moving people and goods from one place to another using various vehicles like cars, trains, ships, and airplanes. Both rely heavily on energy; for example, vehicles typically burn fuel to generate the power needed to move. Improving energy efficiency and shifting to cleaner sources are key to reducing environmental impacts and ensuring reliable transportation and energy supplies for the future.
