In times of growing financial wealth of the population, striving for personal comfort and improving the advertising impact on people, more and more cars appear on our roads. This leads to the fact that the gas pollution of large cities exceeds the norm, and standing in traffic jams for several hours will not surprise anyone. It is also sad that the production of a car requires a large amount of earthly resources, and for the extraction of fuel, huge layers of soil are opened, causing damage to the environment.
Most often on the roads in morning and evening traffic jams, we see 1-2 people in cars, which means a completely illogical distribution of space. What is the way out? Use public transport as often as possible, and car as little as possible. This simple step has many benefits:
- health benefits with increased activity;
- reduction of carbon dioxide emissions (one fixed-route taxi accommodates dozens of people, unlike a car);
- reducing traffic congestion and wasted time;
- savings in financial costs (fuel, accessories, maintenance, insurance, repairs, etc.);
- the opportunity to see the world around and communicate (find out the latest news, make an interesting acquaintance ...).
If the option of public transport does not suit you fundamentally and you are only able to travel by your own car, then bring fellow travelers (you can even for free), thus spending space, resources more wisely and doing a good deed.
