Let’s all take steps this March and beyond
We can all achieve carbon neutral days, weeks or the whole month simply by walking, riding a bike and taking other steps such as public transport.
Jumping on that bicycle is good for our health and leg power equals zero emissions.
Ride an electric bike, scooter or even look for electric car share or poolcar options.
The cities of Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Canberra are already carbon neutral.
Public transport can make a massive dent in our emissions.
Each bus service takes 40 cars off the road.
Cars are responsible for about half of Australia’s transport emissions. Australian cars emit about the same as the state of Queensland’s entire electricity supply.
-
Nearly 87% of Australian commuters travel to work by car according to the Climate Council
-
Transport makes up 18% of all greenhouse gas pollution in Australia - electricity is the largest source at 33%
-
Road-based transport pollution contributes to a greater proportion of emissions in Australian than the global average
Take active steps this month to achieve carbon neutral transport.
Healthy transport equals a healthy planet.
