Transport, Energy, and Environment

Transport, Energy, and Environment in Transport Geography examines how transportation systems interact with energy resources and ecological impacts. It looks at how different modes of transport—like cars, trains, and planes—use energy and produce emissions. This field studies the relationship between transportation choices, energy consumption, and environmental sustainability, aiming to develop efficient and eco-friendly transport solutions. Understanding these connections helps policymakers improve transportation infrastructure while minimizing negative effects on air quality, climate change, and natural habitats. Ultimately, it seeks to balance mobility needs with environmental protection for a sustainable future.
