Walking and Biking Are Climate Superpowers

Walking and biking produce zero emissions. They are the most efficient forms of transportation ever invented.

A bicycle is the most efficient machine ever built. A human on a bike uses less energy per mile than any other form of transport. You get where you are going and you get exercise at the same time.

Walking is free. It requires no fuel, no infrastructure, no technology. Just a pair of shoes.

Cities that invest in walking and biking infrastructure see multiple benefits. Less traffic, cleaner air, healthier citizens, stronger local economies.

The problem is that most cities are designed for cars. That is changing. Slowly.

Every trip you take by foot or bike instead of car is a small victory. For your health and for the planet.
