What is Bike-To-Work Day?
Bike-to-Work Day promotes a “clean commute” and kicks off Clean Commute Month in the Baltimore region. May is the beginning of the ground-level ozone season, when we hear about Code Red and Orange Ozone Action Days. On those days, the air is dangerous to breathe – especially for the young and for the elderly. Single occupancy vehicles produce 20% of the dangerous ozone-emission pollution in the Baltimore area. Bike commuting can improve the air we breathe. For more information:Amber Blake, ablake@baltometro.org or 410-732-0500 x1030. | |  | | |  |  |  |  |  | | | | |
