Choosing to #walk, wheel or #cycle for short local journeys combats the #climateemergency by reducing #carbonemissions & improves air quality 🏘️ Help keep communities safe, quiet & green by reducing traffic congestion, encouraging greenspace and active travel routes! 🌍

Congratulations to @DurhamCouncil for £2.8m funding for #activetravel! Also great that @MartinGannon002 acknowledges the need for behaviour change too: “Encouraging greater use of active travel will help us to realise many of our environmental ambitions”.

Excellent news!

Move for Change by @BrightonHoveCC is set for 2 more years, with a focus on under-represented groups, buses and local business. In 2022 it recorded >1 million active/sustainable journeys, over half replacing a car, preventing ~392,000 kg of CO2 emissions. https://t.co/Lgv55lhpa5

⚠ Last month the Government slashed investment in active travel by over £200 million ⚠ These cuts are a huge backward step for our climate, economy, and health, and simply don’t make sense. It’s time to speak up 👇

Active travel isn't just a 'nice to have'. Walking and cycling is worth an estimated £36.5 billion to the UK economy annually and is how millions of people get to work, go to the shops and travel around healthily, cheaply, and emissions-free.

After success in 2022, @mkcouncil is running a second Get Around Rewards programme for 2023. In 2022 it initiated 190,000+ active or sustainable journeys, 62% replacing a car, and prevented ~47,000 kg of CO2 emissions. https://t.co/qfUPzJRHUa #sustainabletransport #activetravel
