Things we can do

  • walk – for short journeys walking is fantastic. There are no carbon emissions, you get exercise and you meet people! If more people are walking and meeting then streets feel safer for both adults and children and you help to build community. And if you walk with a smile 😎
  • cycle – for short and medium journeys you can’t beat a bicycle! There are no carbon emissions, you get exercise and there are no parking problems – you can go door to door. For many of us in Chapel Allerton a bicycle is a great way of getting into the centre of Leeds and back once you have worked out where the cycle lanes actually go. Leeds Cycling Campaign run cycle trips for beginners and more experienced cyclists to help show how you can get around Leeds safely by bicycle.
  • use public transport
  • car share
  • use an electric car charged from renewable energy sources
  • don’t leave the engine idling
