New Report Tracks Urban Transit Emissions — Where Does Your City Rank?

The emissions numbers get worse in less trafficked rail networks, such as the Baltimore Metro (0.919 pounds of CO2 per passenger mile, an average comparable to a car) and Cleveland's rapid rail transit (0.805 pounds of CO2/passenger mile).

[B' Spokes: Seriously lets start thinking about "rubber rail" so we can put rapid transit where it makes sense rather then just where we have room for it.] http://dc.streetsblog.org/2010/04/22/new-report-tracks-urban-transit-emissions-where-does-your-city-rank/

Like most people I live a hectic life and who has the time for much exercise? Thanks to xtracycle now I do. By using my bike for daily activities I can get things done and get an hour plus work out in 15 minutes extra of my time, not a bad deal and beats taking the extra time going to the gym. In case you are still having trouble being motivated; the National Center of Disease Control says that inactivity is the #2 killer in the United States just behind smoking. ( http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/bb_nutrition/ ) Get out there and start living life! I can carry home a full shopping cart of groceries, car pool two kids or just get lost in the great outdoors camping for a week. Well I got go, another outing this weekend.
