Explain to me briefly the following article
“Reducing emissions in the transport sector is a key element in combating climate change. The Metropolitan City of Catania will equip itself with a bus fleet with more technologically advanced and environmentally friendly engines. We therefore want to increase the services of local public transport with a view to environmental sustainability, inserted in a larger project that includes the opening of new metro stops, intermodal transport and smoother connections between Catania and the surrounding areas.”
This was stated by the metropolitan mayor of Catania, Enrico Trantino, who convened a technical meeting to address a topic full of prospects for public transport: the gradual transition from old buses powered by fossil fuels to those that do not require oil derivatives and run on methane, electricity or hydrogen, in compliance with the energy transition directives provided by the National Strategic Plan for Sustainable Mobility. At the technical meeting, held at the headquarters of the Metropolitan City, many mayors interested in protecting the environment and human health through sustainable urban mobility development participated.
