Well, firstly, many of the team here at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ethicalsuperstore.com\/\">Ethical Superstore<\/a> cycle to work, almost every day.

As you\u2019d expect, we\u2019re mostly concerned with the positive effect cycling has on the environment. Did you know:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Cycling produces ZERO g CO2 per kilometer driven<br \/>\n\u2022 Manufacturing a bike produces 5 g CO2 per Kilometer driven<br \/>\n\u2022 Driving produces on average 229 g CO2 per kilometer driven<br \/>\n\u2022 Manufacturing a car produces 42 g CO2 per Kilometer driven<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ecf.com\/news\/how-much-co2-does-cycling-really-save\/\" target=\"_blank\">Facts from the European Cyclists Federation<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Take an average commute by car for example, of 12 miles each way, or 38Km. The average car will emit 8,702 g CO2 per day, 43,510 g CO2 per week, 174,040 g CO2 per month. That\u2019s a lot. It\u2019s not very <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ethicalsuperstore.com\/tags\/eco-friendly\/\" target=\"_blank\">Eco-Friendly<\/a> is it?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The good news is that more and more of us of are beginning to cycle. According to British Cycling, 1.9million of us now cycle at least once per week. 99,000 more people cycle now than in 2008.\u00a0That\u2019s great for the environment. Many Local Councils in England, such as Newcastle upon Tyne, have also committed to the goal of making 12% of all journeys under 5 miles being taken by bike in the next 10 years, something we could all look to achieve ourselves.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Cycling is also a great way to get fit, healthy, and happy, and is often the best way to commute. One of our team here at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ethicalsuperstore.com\" target=\"_blank\">Ethical Superstore <\/a>has saved over \u00a34,000 by cycling to work over the last 18 months.
