Sustainable mobility means choosing to travel differently, while reducing the environmental impact of your travels.
Sustainable mobility
In practical terms, this can include:
- Replacing the use of self-driving with public transit, active transportation or carsharing, daily or as often as possible;
- Reducing the distance between home and work or favour telework;
- Optimizing travel or organizing daily activities differently;
- Choosing a cleaner vehicle or electric vehicle.
