This is the biggest single contribution to carbon emissions for most households at 34%. We like flying overseas for holidays and the convenience of taking the car but if we can reduce our use of private, fossil-fuel driven vehicles and choose public transport (eg buses, trains, ferries) or even better walk or cycle, we can quickly reduce our emissions footprint.

Transport Checklist
- Limit car use as much as you can. Walk, cycle or use public transport instead
- If your family is buying a new car, can you buy an electric vehicle? Learn more
- Pack as light as possible when you travel. (More weight = more energy/emissions.)
