“Swapping just 5-7% of car journeys for e-biking, cycling or walking by 2030 could add 1.1m years of healthy life by 2050.”

Active travel (walking or cycling for transport) is considered the most sustainable form of personal transport. Yet its net effects on mobility-related CO2 emissions are complex and under-researched (before this EUPASTA paper ;-)

An average person who ‘shifted travel modes’ from car to bike decreased life cycle CO2 emissions by 3.2 kgCO2/day.
CO2 emissions decreased −14% per additional cycling trip and decrease by −62% for each avoided car trip.
