Why is Sustainable Mobility important?
- CO2 emissions from passenger and freight transport account for a large proportion of the total emissions and must be reduced.
- Sustainable mobility contributes significantly to counteracting climate change.
- Sustainable mobility is good for your wellbeing because cycling and walking keep you healthier. Additionally, the savings make the air we breathe cleaner.
Mobility is also related to income. People with higher income are generally more mobile and thus bear more responibility for a larger part of the emissions caused by transport. But everyone should make their everyday life mobility more sustainable to reach the above-mentioned goals.
