The Reality Transportation Survey

If I wanted to create more pedestrian oriented communities and decrease pollution, I would do two things.

First, I would conduct a survey. In this survey I would ask people how the current transportation provider could be more democratic and, in turn, better protect the air, water and land. I would also ask people what they thought transportation had to do with popular sovereignty, liberty, gender, race, and disability issues. This survey would reveal important ideas and opinions about the relationship between transportation and these issues. After conducting the survey I would view what the people said and how they felt and use this information to design a better system of transportation.

Second, I would convince others to ride bikes and scooters. I would suggest cycling because it is convenient as well as smart. When you ride a bicycle you don't pollute in any way. The bikes I would recommend would be very strong. It might even be good if they had more than one seat.

These two ideas could help a lot in the fight against pollution. If you and I don't save our atmosphere, ozone layer, our earth WHO WILL?
