The connection between the Taj Mahal and electric vehicles is not apparent is it? But it is! There is a strong connection between this most romantic of monuments, the first wonder of the world. Some years ago, the authorities realized what petrol/diesel fumes and other toxic emissions from industry were doing to this priceless historical treasure. The Taj was getting dirty, it’s very existence was being jeopardized!
They needed to do something on a war footing! They therefore created a green zone in a one kilometer radius around the Taj. No combustion vehicles are allowed here. Electric vehicles take you to and from the Taj. If you are more adventurous, a horse drawn carriage or a pedal rickshaw will take you!
The point I am trying to make is that traditional vehicles create a noxious and harmful environment for all of us and our need to travel not going away or even going to lessen. We need alternatives to fossil fuel vehicles, and fast!
