Transport
It's often not appreciated that in terms of carbon emissions, college or university transport is the biggest single contributor, responsible for typically 60% of all emissions.
Sustainable travel is about encouraging people to make informed choices about the way they travel and being aware of the consequences of these choices - on their health, their environment and their local community. It is about helping people to reduce their car dependency and encourage the use of sustainable modes of transport, when and where possible. Individuals will reap the benefits of making more sustainable and informed choices about travel, as often sustainable travel will offer a cheaper and stress free alternative, as well as enabling people to build exercise into their daily life, even if it is just a 10 minute brisk walk to the bus stop.
What is sustainable transport?
Walking, cycling, using public transport, car sharing and using vehicles that minimise carbon emissions, such as electric, LPG, bio diesel and hybrid cars.
