Some transit agencies, such as Foothill Transit, have full-time positions dedicated solely to customer safety.

Using public transit reduces pollution emissions Taking a greener route to work not only improves personal health, but also improves the health of the entire community. The pollution emitted for every mile a person rides on a bus is far less than when riding in a car. This may be one of the best-known benefits of public transportation. That’s why many public transit systems are working to develop even more eco-friendly options. Many local buses use low-emission CNG fuel and some are even zero-emission, like Foothill Transit’s fast-charge electric Ecoliners. Using public transit increases physical fitness The U.S. Center for Disease Control recommends that adults get at least 22 minutes of moderate physical activity every day. And yet less than half of American adults reach this target.

More physical 1 Comment Share activity is associated with a higher level of satisfaction in life. If you put in a full day at work and then have an extended commute, you don’t have a lot of time left to unwind.” Riding the bus is just one way to feel better by getting out of the car and connecting with your fellow commuters. Reduce financial stress and increase financial stability Tweets by @FoothillTransit Because riding public transportation encourages overall mental and physical well being, it tends to reduce healthcare costs as well. Average annual medical expenditures are 32% lower for people who achieve physical activity targets than for those who don’t.

  • 2. We and They
    2. We and They Democracy is becoming rather than being. It can easily be lost, but never is fully won. Its essence is eternal struggle. WILLIAM H. HASTIE OVERVIEW Chapter 1 focused on factors that shape an individual’s identity. It also described how those factors are sometimes used to exclude people from membership in various groups. Chapter 2 considers the ways a nation’s identity is defined. That definition has enormous significance. It indicates who holds power in the nation. And it determines who is a part of its “universe of obligation” – the name Helen Fein has given to the circle of individuals and groups “toward whom obligations are owed, to whom rules apply, and whose injuries call for [amends].”1 For much of world history, birth determined who was a part of a group’s “universe of obligation” and who was not. As Jacob Bronowski once explained, “The distinction [between self and other] emerges in prehistory in hunting cultures, where competition for limited numbers of food sources requires a clear demarcation between your group and the other group, and this is transferred to agricultural communities in the development of history. Historically this distinction becomes a comparative category in which one judges how like us, or unlike us, is the other, thus enabling people symbolically to organize and divide up their worlds and structure reality.”2 This chapter explores the power of those classifications and labels. As legal scholar Martha Minow has pointed out, “When we identify one thing as like the others, we are not merely classifying the world; we are investing particular classifications with consequences and positioning ourselves in relation to those meanings.
