Our commuting research shows the RISE in interest in sustainable commuting, especially biking, since the pandemic. While we bid farewell to this health crisis, the reality is the economic and environmental crisis are of deep concern to many Manitobans, and both are entrenched in our transportation system.
Did you know:
- The average Canadian spends $8,000 – $12,000 a year to commute via personal vehicle. Reduce the stress those in your organization face when driving alone.
- During the pandemic, most didn’t miss their commute … except those who travel sustainably. Bring joy to your organization by offering choices for folks to love their trip!
- 91% of Canadians say climate change is a serious issue. Help your team make a positive impact by traveling sustainably, even just once or twice a week!
- Active travel has many mental and physical health benefits. Help to reduce the barriers your team is facing to find routes, buddies and motivation!
GoManitoba continues to grow and we would love to work with you to find all of the benefits for your region or organization. Connect with gohappy@greenactioncentre.ca if you would like to set-up a time to chat.
