Drive Less.

 Drive Less. For errands that are 4 blocks or closer and require carrying less than 10 lbs, commit to walking or riding your bike.

Fewer miles driven means fewer emissions. (EPA)

Bicycling and walking are not just recreational activities; these options help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, traffic congestion and our demand for oil. Additional benefits include reducing other environmental impacts of motorized transportation, such as noise and the destruction of open space, wetlands, and other habitats.

Active travel (walking or cycling for transport) is considered the most sustainable form of personal transport. An average person who ‘shifted travel modes’ from car to bike decreased life cycle CO2 emissions by 3.2 kgCO2/day. (Science Direct)
