etc ( very big list )
I'm writing an article about Future Transportation Systems for Products. I have the following sentence but I'm not sure how to explain this. English is not my first language though.
"The transport of products can be characterized as the baseline for today’s survival. This includes the transport of food, drinks, medicine, etc. the list is never-ending."
Is there a better way to write the above sentence?
articles lists example etc

"This includes the transport of food, drinks, medicine, etc." Don't use "the list is never-ending." Etc. is enough, no matter how long the list is.
