Cycling as a way of getting around is considered one of the most efficient ways to travel
due to its small carbon footprint.Many people would be happy to ride a bike in their everyday
life,but to be massively adopted,better infrastructure (and a cultural shift are
needed.Bike kitchens,community-run biking centers,are part of a worldwide movement that
can help with just such a challenge.Bike kitchens are maintenance workshops providing their
community members in centers all over the globe with tools,used parts,and repair assistance
to promote the use of bicycles locally.
Transitioning from other means of transportation like cars and motorcycles to the
mainstream use of bikes has many benefits for individuals,communities,and even the
environment.Cycling promotes physical and mental health,improves social cohesion ()
and boosts mobility and independence.It is also easy for lower income groups to buy and more
accessible to larger groups of population.And the infrastructure needed for bikes doesn't
require a huge budget.
For individuals in many developed countries,transport can be the largest part of their
carbon footprint.It's reported that transport accounts for around one-fifth of global carbon
dioxide emissions.For short or medium distances,bikes are one of the lowest-carbon ways to
travel.The carbon footprint of cycling one kilometer (just over half a mile)is around only 16
to50 grams COz-eq(二氧化碳当量)and,even more shockingly,using a bike instead of a car
for short trips would reduce a person's travel emissions by 75 percent.
Community bike kitchens encourage a more sustainable way of traveling that makes
cities more friendly,while reinforcing community values.They help build a community
economy that prevents waste generation,since most parts are secondhand,fixed,or reused.
