Detailed explanation-1: -Electrified tools boosted industrial productivity, and many were eventually made available to domestic “do-it-yourselfers.” Electric power for transportation made subways practical and streetcars more efficient. These in turn provided central stations with daytime consumers of electricity.
Detailed explanation-2: -Nearly all parts of the electricity system can affect the environment, and the size of these impacts will depend on how and where the electricity is generated and delivered. In general, the environmental effects can include: Emissions of greenhouse gases and other air pollutants, especially when a fuel is burned.
