COMMUTER CHALLENGE…
- Is a week-long event during Canadian Environment Week (June 3 – 9, 2012)
- Is a friendly competition between Canadian cities and workplaces
- Encourages Canadians to leave their cars at home
- Rewards walking, cycling, carpooling/ride-sharing, taking transit and telecommuting
- Celebrates active and sustainable transportation
- Is nationally hosted by Sustainable Alberta Association
- Is locally hosted by City Coordinators who support workplaces
HOW IT WORKS
- You register your workplace and/or yourself before the Commuter Challenge week (starting in February 2012)
- You walk, cycle, carpool, take transit or telecommute during the event week
-
To be included in the final results you need to make at least one sustainable commute during Commuter Challenge week; of course you can commute sustainably every day
- You log your commute here starting June 3, 2012
- Registration and logging will be accepted until Wednesday, June 13, 2012
- While logging see your impacts adding up
- Tracked impacts are emission reduction, calorie consumption, distance and fuel cost savings
- Results are updated daily so you can see which workplaces and cities have the highest percentage of healthy commuters
- To increase the fun you can also encourage your coworkers to take the challenge
