Think green ... live clean - greener travel
Could your daily journey be done without a car? Could you swap one trip a week and walk, cycle, or use public transport?
A few changes to your weekly routine would be a great contribution to a greener Arun. Here's some suggestions to consider:
- car share with others - share lifts with colleagues, friends, or neighbours to reduce fuel use and traffic
- plan efficient routes - combine errands into one trip and avoid peak times to save fuel and reduce emissions
- switch to electric or hybrid vehicles - if you are changing your car, consider a low-emission model to reduce your carbon footprint
- work from home when possible - remote working, even part-time, cuts down on commuting and pollution
- use 'park and ride' services - leave your car outside busy areas and take public transport into town centres
- maintain your vehicle - regular servicing and correct tyre pressure improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions
- support local travel initiatives - get involved in community schemes like bike hire, walking buses, or green travel campaigns
- raise awareness - encourage friends, family, and colleagues to make greener travel choices too
Just one day a week could make the Arun district a cleaner and quieter place to be!
