Answer at the bottom
When we make choices about how to get from point A to point B it affects all of us by the air we breathe. If we choose to use our bikes, skateboards, or rollerblades, then we get to enjoy exercising our bodies AND getting to where we need to go.
Resources for change…
Rollerblade/Skateboard- there are millions of people rollerblading and skateboarding around the world. Check out your local skate shops, parks and downtowns to find these people.
Bike – Connect with your local bike coalition to learn more about your local bike community, land use planning, safe routes to schools and much more.
Go to Google and type in [your city or state] + bike coalition
Carpool – If you can’t use the first two options and have to drive then check out these sites to share the ride and the road

Answer: vine flying – because it uses the least amount of materials. If you can’t find a vine then rollerblading, riding a bike and driving a car is last.
