World Carfree Day

World Carfree Day, observed annually on September 22, encourages people worldwide to avoid using cars for a day. The aim is to highlight the benefits of reducing car dependency, such as improved air quality, less traffic congestion, and a healthier environment. Participants typically walk, bicycle, or use public transportation instead. The day also raises awareness about sustainable urban planning and fosters community engagement. By experiencing a day without cars, individuals can better understand how transportation choices impact personal health, city livability, and the planet.
