Getting There…

Cars have become normal, the default in many situations.

We can work together to define a new normal.

A typical passenger vehicle emits 4.6 metric tons of carbon dioxide per year.

Alternatives can help reduce this.

Rideshare, high occupancy transport, e-bike, bike, scoot, walk, run.

How you and others get somewhere matters.

Ask if someone needs a lift, go along with others, gang up errands.
