literature review

My literature review is on the airborne pollution caused by the increasing global use of cars. there are many pros and cons which I will talk about in my essay, and also what governments from all over the world are doing to prevent such disasters which are being caused by airbourne pollution. can the government help by using tax or some sort of policy to encourage the use on non petrol cars?

The increasing global use of cars is causing more airborne pollution, despite agreements by many governments to cut such emissions (e.g. through the Kyoto Agreement). Cars which do use non-petrol fuel sources e.g. hydrogen, solar power, battery or fuel cells, etc. have been under study for years by the car industry and are starting to attract political attention. For example, California has long had mandatory targets for sales of non-petrol vehicles, at that time former U.S. President Bush had introduced tax breaks for environmentally friendly cars. E.U. member states need to develop methods by which a wide variety of biofuels will account for 2% of all transportation fuel sold by 2005, increasing to 5.75% by 2010.

Strengths willing to work hard. good communication skills. investigating problems and solving them. being able to work with others confidently. past experience on a engineering course interest in practical work.	Weaknesses not very good at maths. little knowledge or expercience in a engineering industry. handwriting is poor. slow at understanding formulas. find it hard to study at home.
Opportunities better understanding about engineering. qualified engineer. good career prospects. meet new people.	Threats I find maths very challenging. getting assignments in on time. because i'm working part time, I fear there is less time to get on with university work. had a gap year off education.
