REFLECTION QUESTIONTransportation Walk InsteadHalf 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?
Liam Krzywulak (103) 4/19/2024 8:05 AMThis statistic does not really apply to me because I commute almost 10 miles however I don't mind walking, a lot of times I will choose to take my dog with me and walk places if its short distance within the 3 mile range. -
