  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Transportation
    Half of all trips made in the US are three miles or less; 72% of them are driven. Does this statistic describe your own transportation habits? If so, how might you incorporate more muscle-powered transportation in your daily life?

    When living at home, I feel this statistic lines up to my traveling habits since I live in a place where it is difficult to walk places; I mostly live on main roads with no sidewalks. But, at college I walk nearly everywhere I go. I start my car maybe once a week compared to two-three times a day at home.
