    The document outlines the major challenges in the transportation sector, including reliance on fossil fuels that consume large amounts of energy. Transportation accounts for approximately one quarter of total energy consumption in both Sweden and Sri Lanka. It is also a leading cause of environmental problems through emissions. Specifically, transportation contributes about half of Sweden's carbon dioxide emissions. The document asks what the major challenges are, why addressing them is important, and whether transitioning to more sustainable transportation is a worthwhile topic to discuss.
