For this year’s Earth Day, we teamed up with BikeHouston, Air Alliance Houston, and others to call on our local elected officials to go car free on April 22nd. The Climate Action Plan and the Resilient Strategy status report shows that Houston is nowhere near reducing vehicle miles traveled and is trending away from achieving Vision Zero. While we are meeting metrics for building bikeways and improving access to high-frequency transit, we urge our local leaders to prioritize resources to truly move the needle on some of these issues to improve outcomes for Houstonians, particularly those of us who need it the most.
We challenge all leaders, and you, to get out of cars to really experience what it’s like to navigate Houston on foot, bike, or by bus to get to work, meetings, grocery stores, and other appointments.
