Think Globally: The Vision
Peddling your way down tree-lined streets. Fresh air. Exercise. No parking hassles. No gas to guzzle. No trail of pollutants in your wake. Imagine grabbing a bike to run that quick errand or to take a leisurely afternoon ride without the hassle of storing or maintaining it when you're done.
BIXI bike sharing system's vision offers a new spin on urban mobility with a public use bike sharing program. It's an environmentally sound two-wheeled alternative to the overuse of four-wheeled gas-gulping, carbon monoxide-emitting machines. It’s about energizing the body, rethinking how we use our natural resources, and rejuvenating the earth.
Each of us plays a part . . . each of us can make a difference. Toxic emissions are impacting us all, the planet we live on and the one we leave behind. With a bit of effort and awareness, cleaner air, a healthier lifestyle, and a reduction in our carbon footprint are easily within our grasp. Together we can put an end to unnecessary short trips by car, reducing detrimental fuel emissions, and making our communities cleaner, greener, and healthier.
