REFLECTION QUESTION
Transportation Walk Instead

Half of all trips made in the US are three miles or less; 72% of them are driven. Does this statistic describe your own transportation habits? If so, how might you incorporate more muscle-powered transportation in your daily life?

Being in college and living in a college town, most things are in walking distance; class, grocery stores, park, etc..

Winter months, it would be better to take public transportation than walking or taking your own car.
