Alternative
Transportation
Alternative
forms
of
transportation promote healthier
lifestyles
and
a
cleaner
environment.
The
effects
of
alternative transportation have been
seen when there is a decline in
walking and cycling, there is in turn
an increase in obesity and heart
disease. (Barton & Grant, 2012) This
shows the significance of alternative
transportation because by utilizing
forms of transportation such as
walking or cycling, you get more
exercise. The added
exercise
benefits your body and therefore
makes you less susceptible to
diseases. So, by using alternative
forms of transportation you will
have a healthier lifestyle.
