A Lack of Physical Activity
• causes 1.9 million deaths per year,• the fourth leading risk factor for global
mortality• 60% of the world's population

Physical Inactivity - Economic Consequences in USA for 2000 yr
• Overweight and obesity $117 billion
• Heart diseases $183 billion• Diabetes $100 billion• Cancer $157 billion• Arthritis $50 billion

WHO recommends: 30 minutes of physical activity /
day150 minutes of physical activity / week

Potential of Cycling as a Tool to Improve Physical Activity of the
Population• 30 % of trips
made in car in Europe cover distance of less than 3 km
• 50 % of less than 5 km

Active Transportation - Walking and Cycling is the Most Natural, Free and Easy Way of
Physical Activity for Everybody

Main air pollutants from engines:
• Noise• Hazardous emissions:
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
mutagenic and carcinogenicPM10 and PM2,5COaldehydes

Automobiles also emit micro-particles by friction and grind off of :
• Rubber tyre• Brake – pad plates• Clutch lining• Road surfaces
15 %

Emissions are more dangerous than accidents
Emissions from transport and their consequences are of eight times higher magnitude than
consequences of car accidents

Cyclo-transport and low emissions public transport helps, not harms
Mobility management contributes to decrease of the hazardous substances in the air.
Low external damages to health or property justify for subsidies and financial support.
