      Did
      you
      know
      ACTIVE
      TRANS-
     
     
      PORTATION
      is
      a
      totally
      non-polluting
      way
     
     
      of
      humanizing
      our
      community
      while
      at
      the
     
     
      same
      time
      preventing
      the
      accumulation
      of
     
     
      greenhouse
      gasses?
     
    
   
   
    
     
      By
      reducing
      vehicle
      impact
      on
      our
     
     
      planet
      we
      can
      improve
      our
      health
      and
      the
     
     
      sustainability
      of
      our
      communities,
      -what's
     
     
      more
      -we're
      saving
      money!
     
    
   
   
    
     
      Fact:
      The
      cost
      of
      an
      average
      bike
     
     
      trip
      is
      one
      cent
      per
      mile
      -
      compared
      to
      34
     
     
      cents
      per
      mile
      for
      a
      car!!
     
    
   
   
    
     
      If
      each
      motor
      trip
      was
      switched
      to
     
     
      biking
      or
      walking
      we
      could
      avoid
      releasing
     
     
      many
      harmful
      gasses
      into
      our
      air.
      Take
      for
     
     
      example
      the
      greater
      Charlottetown
      area
      in
     
     
      July.
      If
      everyone
      walked
      or
      biked
      to
      work
     
     
      once
      a
      week
      the
      environment
      could
      be
     
     
      spared
      up
      to
      1
      800
      000g
      of
      carbon
      dioxide,
     
     
      not
      to
      mention
      the
      hydrocarbons
      and
      nitro-
     
     
      gen
      oxides!
     
    

    
     
      Fact:
      Forty
      percent
      of
      all
      car
      trips
     
     
      are
      2
      miles
      or
      shorter.
      More
      than
      a
      quarter
     
     
      (of
      these
      trips)
      are
      less
      than
      a
      mile!
     
    
   
   
    
     
      These
      trips
      are
      perfect
      for
      bikes!
      So
      why
      is
     
     
      our
      use
      of
      cars
      increasing?
      It
      would
      seem
     
     
      we
      have
      been
      culturally
      ingrained
      to
      be
     
     
      dependent
      on
      our
      automobiles.
      Is
      it
     
     
      because
      our
      fast-paced
      life-styles
      make
      our
     
     
      vehicles
      indispensable?
      Why
      not
      depend
     
     
      on
      advantageous,
      flexible
      and
      efficient
     
     
      means
      of
      transportation?
     
    
   
   
    
     
      Fact:
      According
      to
      the
      Northwest
     
     
      Environment
      Watch,
      bicycling
      is
      the
      most
     
     
      energy-efficient
      form
      of
      travel
      possible.
     
     
      Pound
      for
      pound,
      a
      person
      on
      a
      bicycle
     
     
      expends
      less
      energy
      than
      any
      creature
      or
     
     
      machine
      that
      is
      covering
      an
      equal
      distance.
     
    
   
   
    
     
      Furthermore,
      its
      fun!
      Spring
      thaw
     
     
      will
      be
      here
      before
      we
      know
      it!
      It's
      a
      great
     
     
      time
      to
      start
      thinking
