Swap car ride for e-bike ride

Did you know that approximately 30 per cent of Noosa Shire’s emissions come from transport?

The good news is that we can all help to reduce Noosa Shire’s transport emissions by using an e-bike for transport wherever possible, instead of driving our cars. There are added benefits to e-cycling that you will experience.

Research undertaken in Noosa Shire (sponsored by Giant Bicycles) found that e-cycling helps to increase physical activity and improves mental health. E-biking has also been shown to decrease levels of depression, anxiety, and stress and to positively influence feelings of happiness.

Want to feel more energised and have more fun?

Try using an e-bike to go the shops, to get to work, to pick up the kids from school, to meet up with friends for a coffee or just to explore our beautiful Noosa Shire – you’ll soon be hooked on e-cycling.

Are you interested in to find out more or join Zero Emissions Noosa Inc.? Go to zeroemissionsnoosa.com.au/

Alternatively, contact Dr Carina Anderson at carina.anderson@unisq.edu.au

Happy e-cycling.
