Environmentally friendly transportation
In this article we are not looking at environmentally friendly transportation for holidays or travel. We are going to look at your ways of transportation in your own neighborhood, when you go to work, school, do your shopping and so on. It is so easy to take the car but you should not get used to it and there are other, much more environmentally friendly, transportation types. And they are easy as well.
The least favorite
To keep it interesting for you I should probably start with a more popular type of transportation but because a lot of people out there have just forgotten about this perfect option we will start with the most unpopular way of getting yourself from A to B in America, walking. There is a big difference if you live in a big crowded city or your home is in the country or in the suburbs. City folks walk much more then other people, for them walking is cheaper, its easier and they keep in shape at the same time. But it seems that when people have more space and they live in an rural area they take the car for almost everything. If you are one of those people and you are interested in more environmentally friendly transportation types this article is great for you
Environmentally friendly transportation is cheaper
For example a scooter compared to car mileage example:
“Each mile in an SUV costs in gas PPG/MPG where PPG is the price per gallon and MPG is the mileage of your vehicle. If the price per gallon is $3.00 and your vehicle gets 12 miles per gallon, 3/12 = a cost of $0.25 per mile. Now we calculate cost/mile for a scooter at 85 MPG: 3/85 = about $0.035 – about three and a half cents a mile. With these figures, it is simple to see that each mile on a scooter costs $0.215 less than it would in an SUV. Thus, when it reaches 5000 miles, the scooter will have saved us 5000 * $0.215 or $1075.00! Just about the price of an inexpensive Motorscooter.” according to MotorScooterMuse .com
As you can see environmentally friendly transportation is fun, cheap and not just for green hippie type people at all. The benefits of environmentally friendly transportation are very big and it is wise in this time of financial and environmental crisis to look at our options.
