All you need to do is register and log your sustainable and active transportation trips throughout the first week of June to participate and win prizes!
Take the Challenge
Why Participate?
Commuting by car is the largest single source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Manitoba. GHG emissions are the leading cause of climate change and air pollution.
Less than half of all Manitobans get enough physical activity. Using sustainable transportation allows people to incorporate physical activity into their daily routines.
The average cost to own and operate a vehicle can range from $8,500 – $11,500 or higher each year based on the typical 18,000 km driven. Choose alternative modes to save money.
We’re looking for volunteer community coordinators to promote the challenge in regions across Manitoba.
