Well, that means that I know it’s maybe the one that we have electrical cars. So I think that that kind of things are useful because of the environment that we have. We have a lot of contamination, pollution and that kind of stuff. So it’s better to be taking care of the environment and all that kind of stuff. So people use it more because it’s also, well, it could be more expensive, but you can use it for… It’s more cheaper than if you use a gas car. The benefits is, well, I have already told that for the environment, for pollution, for plants, and that kind of stuff, maybe a negative consequence. It could be that it has to take a lot of energy. So if you are trying to deserve or conserve, I don’t think that it’s better. I think you could say that it’s better for some kind of stuff, but maybe it’s a little bit different of electricity and light. So that’s it.

Well, I know that one significant advancement we have is electric cars. I think that this kind of technology is useful because of the environmental issues we face. We have a lot of contamination, pollution, and similar problems. It's better to take care of the environment. People use electric cars more because, while they can be more expensive initially, they are cheaper to operate than gas cars. The benefits include reducing pollution and helping the environment, which I have already mentioned. A negative consequence could be that electric cars require a lot of energy to operate. So if you are trying to conserve energy, it might not be the best option. You could argue that electric cars are better for certain aspects, but it can be a bit different when considering electricity and its sources. So that's it.
