It is estimated that there are over 600 million motor vehicles being driven on the streets of the earth. This figure is expected to double in the next 30 years. But oil is running out and bio-fuels are no longer seen as a viable alternative to fossil fuels. Add to that the choking emissions and greenhouse gases that are pushing the planet towards runaway global warming - nearly a third of the UK's greenhouse emissions come from transport - and it becomes clear that we need an alternative to the current car culture, and quickly.
Sustrans the UK's leading sustainable transport charity; their vision is a world in which people choose to travel in ways that benefit their health and the environment. They are constantly developing practical, yet imaginative solutions to the many transport challenges affecting us all. Their Active Travel team is working to persuade governments to promote walking and cycling as a way of combating obesity, heart disease and cancer. Sustrans has also pioneered TravelSmart in the UK - a unique service that gives households the information they need to walk, cycle and use public transport more. They are working with young people and schools to make cycling and walking to school both safe and fun with their Safe Routes to Schools and Bike It schemes
