Fuelling walking and cycling: human powered locomotion is associated with non-negligible greenhouse gas emissions

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Reducing motorized transport and increasing active transport (i.e. transport by walking, cycling and other active modes) may reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and improve health. But, active modes of transport are not zero emitters.
