We plan to start a movement like that in the city of Peterborough where they run a competition and campaign named "Peterborough Moves - Get to work differently". Following their model, we hope to begin our own movement in Belleville; "get to work - switch gears" - and encourage alternate means of transportation.

Oct 3 to 7, 2011 Travel to Loyalist in a sustainable way.

What are the possibilities: bike, jog, walk, take the bus.  If you live too far away or there is a big hill in the middle of your path arrange to carpool with someone or arrange with your boss to work from home a day or two.

Did you know?

Cars produce an average of 0.3 kg of CO2 per km. Riding a bike produces no greenhouse gases or any other emissions. 10% of the trips made in urban areas are less than one kilometer, while 30% are less than three kilometers – ideal distances for cycling or walking!
