Regular physical activities are great for your health and well-being but not only that, it's good for your pocket 💰 good for our cities 🌁 and good for our planet 🌍
Walking and cycling are great ways to stay fit and help the environment at the same time. The World Health Organization (WHO) says that safe infrastructure for these activities can improve health equity by providing affordable transport options and reducing the risk of diseases. Adding more walking and cycling into our daily routines can cut down on pollution, improve air quality and make our roads safer. It’s a win-win: people stay healthier and cities get greener. 🌿
World Bicycle Day celebrates the bicycle as a simple, affordable and eco-friendly way of transportation. Bikes help reduce traffic and pollution and they make it easier for people to access education, healthcare and other essential services. Promoting cycling can drive economic growth, reduce inequalities and help fight climate change.
The United Nations has also recognized the importance of cycling by adopting a resolution to integrate biking into public transportation systems. This move highlights the bicycle's role in encouraging sustainable living and positively impacting our climate.
