Chart Your Way

Chart your way to clean air ... ride the bus!

We can help reduce air pollution by cutting back on how much we use our cars. If our friends are going to the same places we are,we should try to share a ride – this is called carpooling. We can also walk or ride our bicycles. Another mode of transportation that is better for the air than driving alone, is taking the bus. There are bus routes all over Spokane and taking the bus can get you
just about everywhere you need to go!

Your Challenge:

Identify five places that you and your family go to on a regular basis by automobile (work, school, friends, shopping malls, grocery store, etc.) Do you all ride together or alone?

Get a bus schedule and map and chart how you could reach the same destination by taking a bus. Do a chart for each member of your family and show them how they can get there by bus and help reduce air pollution!
