Here's your chance not just to be the mayor, but the original city planner as well! Imagine a medium sized city that would be developed with modern, low carbon transportation in mind, and other strategies to reduce the average citizens' carbon footprints.
What would that city look like? Would that make you more likely to want to live there?

Bicycle
The level of pollution in megapolices is rapidly increasing, so that many people find it impossible to breathe such air. What`s more, numerous cars cause rush hours so that people can spend an hour not having moved at all.
People see the solution to both huge problems in one rather small and available thing - in a bicycle. It has a lot of advantages which outweigh the disadvantages some people see in it. I personally see no disadvantages in using a healthy way of transport.
First of all, a bicycle does no harm to environment. Secondly, the reduction of the number of cars,The third and the most important advantage is that bicycle is useful for our health.I am concerned that time will pass and people will finally distinguish between a comfortable car and a bicycle and their choice will be right.
I agree that using bicycles as a main source of transportation will reduce a city's carbon footprint. Pollution from cars is very harmful to the environment and effects the air we breathe. This is a great idea for a city's transportantion.
But cars are pretty cool. Just dont ban cars 8>
That makes sense. It would work well in big cities, since everything's within biking distances. The harder part would be using bicycles to travel in rural areas, where the grocery store might be five miles away.
