Apropos of today’s earlier post about the problems with cars, two easy steps you can take, if you’re interested, to help reduce car traffic and air pollution in New York City, and in making the City more livable.
First, if you’re a New York State resident, click here to send a fax to State Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver in support of Congestion Pricing, a measure that will both reduce automobile traffic and fund public transportation (read more here).
Second, you can join Transportation Alternatives, an excellent New York organization that campaigns to make the City safer and better for pedestrians and bicyclists (here is the membership page).
Just a thought on how we can all make a difference when it comes to getting away from cars! Thanks!
