Transport and the effects on our environment!
There has been a massive push for a reduction in our carbon footprint, and in many ways we are succeeding however in transportation, emmissons are still rising!
Having accessiblity to different modes of transport, can depend on a numebr of things, the distance you intend to travel, but even if the distance is short, still people will chose to drive instead of walk, I know I am guilty of this on a lazy day.
If we couldnt aford to drive however, we would be forced to walk or to catch public transport so in essance having a reduced carbon foot print is related to amount of money you have?
Aviation accounts for a lot of transport pollution, but once again you can only fly if you can afford it!
IS there a way to make people take action and reduce their carbon foot print?
Making the public transport better?
I may seem a bit sceptical but I think it would be a very hard job getting people out of the comfortable cars, and onto a bus!
