Sustainable Transportation – Walk

Wiggle your right big toe, now wiggle the left one. They are talking to you, they want to be used. Don't take those ten little soldiers for granted because they are willing to take you far distance and back. Don't take your legs for granted. Make use of them.

Our first effort to show the world of walking was displayed as Imagine A World Without Cars (IAWWOC). The intention was to create the imagination of students, faculty, and staff to imagine themselves in a world ridden of cars. The artwork displayed had an overall theme of a luscious and thriving world without the dependency of cars. When riding a bike or walking we can truly appreciate the true beauty of nature. Some may say walking is boring; on the contrary my friend. While walking on campus try to ignore all the sounds produced by vehicles, try listening the leaf you just stepped on, or the wind blowing through your hair. If that still bores you then try volunteering at the Environmental Center we could always use a busy body.
