Future Transportation Systems
By Lateef Oladeji of Gem Business Ventures
Worries about the dangers posed by our present transportation systems have become
topical in recent times. The cost of powering the systems is another thing
worthy of attention, but the environmental impact is generating a separate
source of genuine worry. The fumes, the smokes, the heat, the noise, the oil exploitation,
reserves depletion and land degradation, etc, are problems weighing heavily on the
environment. Everybody now seems to be thinking of ways of ameliorating the environmental problems
caused by our
modern transportation systems. They range from those coming from the committed and
realistic to the cynical and fun-making ones. In the latter category falls the email I received
from a friend recently. The friend attached a picture on the imaginative possibility of riding a mechanically mobilized cow on wheels! The funny idea struck me as crazy and unrealizable.
Isn't it? What is your own idea of the future modes of transportation that are
environment-friendly? In those days of our great grandparents in Africa, there was a "means" by which the
distance of a long journey could be made to shrink drastically! It was called "kanoko" in my own language. Yet, there was another means by
which
somebody would just call the name of the place to travel to, and would instantly meet himself
there. How I wish the blackman was allowed to develop further his own God given talents
before he was made to abandon them. Had that been so, there would now be a positive complementarity between the modern science and technology of the West and the indigenous science and technology of the black world. I only hope that
those capabilities are not lost forever. |
