Transport is one of the largest sources of carbon emissions in Aotearoa, but small changes in how we get around can make a big difference. Walking, biking, ride-sharing, or even choosing an e-bike or other electric vehicles all help reduce our climate impact while saving on fuel and parking costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Active transport doesn\u2019t just cut emissions; it improves fitness, lowers stress, and helps us feel more connected to our neighbourhood. In Ngaio, we have the chance to make cycling, walking, and shared transport safer, easier, and more appealing, creating a healthier and more connected community for everyone!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Community in Action<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier this year, Ngaio Climate Crew attended the bike ride to the Ngaio Crofton Downs community picnic! Neighbours of all ages joined in, riding together to a local spot where we shared food, laughter, and ideas. Events like this are a reminder that active transport isn\u2019t just practical; it can also bring joy and community spirit to everyday life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
