Unit 2. The Environmental Impacts of Transportation

Exercise 2. There are different environmental problems. Can you name some of them? Read information given below and guess about the type of an environmental problem.
Noise is the most important environmental problem for people living close to railway lines.
Air quality is being threatened by exhaust gas emission from the increasing road traffic.
The activities of the transport industry release several million tons of gases each year into the atmosphere. There is an ongoing debate to what extent these emissions may be linked to climate change and the role of anthropogenic factors.
Fuel, chemical and other hazardous particulates discarded from aircraft, cars, trucks and trains or from port and airport terminal operations, such as de-icing, can contaminate rivers, lakes, wetlands and oceans.
The environmental impact of transportation on soil consists of soil erosion and soil contamination.
Major transport facilities can affect the quality of urban life by creating physical barriers, increasing noise levels, generating odors, reducing urban aesthetic and affecting the built heritage.
