Changing your daily commute into a cycle will help reduce your carbon footprint, even if you would normally use public transport.

The reality of climate change is becoming established in people’s minds, and that’s prompting many to ask whether they should be doing more personally to tackle the problem. There are things we can all do, but it will require changes to our lifestyles.
