Better Journeys
Our Better Journeys campaign is all about making small changes that lead to big differences for you, your purse and the planet.
We're all out and about, travelling in different ways to get where we need to go. A lot of us are doing what we can to reduce our carbon footprint and create a climate friendly Argyll and Bute. We're asking you to play your part and get involved in our new campaign.
Mix and match for better journeys
Walking, wheeling, cycling, getting the bus or using other shared transport can benefit you by making journeys more social and boost your wellbeing. There are lots of ways that part of your total journey could be done more actively, and with a lower environmental impact. Here are some ideas for you to try:
Choose to walk to the shops once a week rather than drive
Arrange to lift share to work
Sit back, relax and take in the views on the bus
Try parking somewhere further away from your destination to cut vehicle miles and get a walk
Make it a family affair and cycle to school or the local park
