[sustran] European CarFree Day

[eric.britton at ecoplan.org]

Dear Friends,

This is just to let you know that this is Car Free Day season in many parts
of Europe and a few other places as well.

Now as you know well a single day without cars, or with a couple of less
cars, is no magic formula for instant sustainable mobility, environmental
integrity and social justice.  But if it is taken seriously by those
involved, it can provide some valuable clues and be used to gain support for
new ideas and what we like to call “pattern breaks”.

There are a couple of dozen web sites that report on or follow all this in
different places and different ways, but if you want to pretty good front
door to the whole thing you can check out http://CarfreeDay.com
<http://carfreeday.com/> .  It may give you an idea or two for your own
communities and neighborhoods.

With all good wishes,

Eric Britton
