Taking public transit or engaging in sustainable and active transportation, such as walking, cycling or other forms of low-carbon travel, not only creates less air pollution and carbon emissions, but can also improve fitness, reduce stress and increase social interaction in the community.
What actions can we take?
Take steps to foster/ support the use of public transit and sustainable, active transportation by staff and/or families.
Share information on public transit options.
Consider providing a public transit stipend to employees.
Consider providing preferred (or free) parking for employees who carpool or use low or zero-emission vehicles.
Provide bicycle racks for use by staff and parents/ guardians.
