Return to ten things you can do

Passenger vehicles in Australia produce almost 46 million tonnes of greenhouse pollution a year and are a major contributor to air pollution in urban areas.

By leaving your car at home and using ‘active transport’ – any journey that relies more on walking, cycling and using public transport – both you and our environment can breathe easier.

Visit www.goforyourlife.vic.gov.au or www.travelsmart.vic.gov.au for more information on active transport, or www.metlinkmelbourne.com.au or www.viclink.com.au for public transport information.

Visit Bicycle Victoria www.bv.com.au and Parks Victoria www.parkweb.vic.gov.au for information on cycle routes.
