    Day 1. Good. The hardest part is remembering to log in. 
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Transportation Walk Instead
    Half of all trips made in the US are three miles or less; 72% of them are driven. Do you feel that this fact applies to you? If so, how might you incorporate more muscle-powered transportation in your daily life?

    I used to drive more, especially if my short trips are at night or in bad weather. Walking 2 - 3 miles a day will help the environment, prevent me from being in that 72%, and contribute to my health.

    How has your access to various kinds of transportation throughout your life influenced your current attitudes about transportation and your transportation behavior?

    I used to use my car for all errands. By walking and taking public transport I avoid buying an unnecessary items and resist impulse purchases.

    Transportation Car Share
    Take a moment to think of places you frequent often (work, grocery store, natural areas). Could you choose one or two days a week to schedule driving with a friend, neighbor or co-worker to these places?

    I can walk to the grocery store no problem - but carrying 25 pound bags of dog food home will make car2go a good choice for my ride home.
