Key learning areas: mathematics, science Level: secondary About: In this episode, Stefan explores alternatives to car use by pedalling a rickshaw across Bristol and performing simple calculations to determine the carbon cost of a new cycle way. Before the episode 1. How many cars do you own? 2. How many days a week do you use your cars? 3. Estimate how many kilometres a week your cars would drive. During the episode 1. Why do we prefer cars as a means of travel? 2. How many kilograms of CO2 is saved by a person riding as opposed to driving 1 km? 3. How many kilograms of CO2 were produced by building 1 km of cycling track? education.nsw.gov.au After the episode 1. Think of friends and people you know. Record in the frequency table below how each person gets to school. 2. Calculate the fraction and percentage of people that travel by each mode of transport. 3. Cars and light vehicles account for 10% of Australia’s greenhouse gas emissions. If Australia produces 43 000 000 tonnes of CO2 each year, how much is produced by cars and light vehicles? 4. The average emissions for cars in Australia is 45% higher than it is in Europe. Based on your answer to question 3, how much CO2 is produced by cars in Europe? 5.

  • Sustainable Transportation CASE STUDIES
    Sustainable Transportation CASE STUDIES An Introduction to the Case Studies These case studies are intended to provide easy access to the exciting and revolutionary changes that are happening in transportation all over the world. Communities, cities, schools, and businesses are rethinking and redesigning the way they transport people and goods. These approaches are helping to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, air pollution, and traffic congestion. They are also strengthening communities through more social interaction and improving individual health through more active living. Think of these case studies as starting points to conversation, exploration, and student action. They demonstrate positive examples of the human spirit and imagination. They model the kinds of efforts that can inspire your students to take on a challenge of their own and to make a change—for themselves, their school, or the wider community. EnerAction offers ten sustainable transportation case studies that profile a wide range of topics including transportation demand management, cycling infrastructure and planning, youth leadership, technological innovation, community projects, and more. The ten case studies are: #1: Go Fly a Kite! #2: Fort Street Revival #3: Getting Charged About Electric #4: Doing Better Together #5: Building Bikes and Bearing Food #6: The Trampe #7: The Bogotá Project #8: Cool Riding #9: Grandma Rides Again #10: Streets for Living Copyright © 2010 GreenLearning Canada Engaging Students in Case Studies You can use these case studies as recommended in an EnerAction sustainable transportation lesson plan. To use them independently, consider asking groups of students to create a short summary of a case study and a drawing that captures the spirit of the case.
