E-Bikes Are the Future.
States Must Make Them
Affordable. | | |
If
we are going to solve the climate crisis, the government
will have to make it easy and affordable for Americans
to reduce their car use. This means more
trains, more buses, and more
bikes.
E-bikes
are a great alternative to cars
because they create a mere 1/70 of the
climate emissions of gas-fueled cars. Not
only are they extremely sustainable, they
can be much more practical than regular bikes.
Most e-bikes can reach speeds of 25 mph, and obviously
require less physical labor to use than regular bikes,
making them ideal for commuting. As an added
bonus, people who commute by bike tend to
be happier and
feel better than their peers who sit in cars to get to
and from work.
A
new program in Minnesota will make e-bikes, which
are regularly pretty expensive, extremely affordable for
all people in the state. It is time Illinois implements
a similar program to incentivize e-bike use! Sign now to demand
Illinois follow in Minnesota's steps and create
affordable e-bike
programs! | | |
