Abstract

Draft animals were used for road transport for centuries. This survey considers the use of horses and oxen as draft animals and pollution of cities by their manure and urine. Automobiles appeared at the end of the XIX century and won the competition with horses because they were faster, cheaper to operate, and they were considered as smaller polluters that time
