Erik Sidenbladh, a 19 year old M from Sweden asks on October 9, 2001

Q:We're doing a study on future transportation at school, KTH in Sweden, and we are really having a hard time finding any information about people transportation (trains, cars) and goods transportation (boats, trucks). We would be very glad if you could help us in our quest for information.

A:

You could go to www.google.com and type in "zero emission vehicles". Future trends point to vehicles with no harmful exhaust. For instance, I found this UK site on Zero emission vehicles right away.

Simply typing "future transportation" into google also yields a lot of good stuff such as the US Office of Transportation Technologies. Perhaps you just need to look a bit harder. Google is amazing.
