We have spent the last weeks and months making the most of the summer weather – enjoying barbeques, days in the park and I have no doubt part of your holiday was spent on a beach! It is times spent outdoors like this that makes us realise just how incredible our world is, and how important it is to sustain the earth for future generations. One fantastic way of reducing your carbon footprint is by changing the way to travel! Lose the car and jump on a bike, and what better way to start this new routine than the start of the new school year. Whether you are a parent dropping your kids off or a student making the journey on your own, treat this academic year like New Year and make a resolution to be green getting to school!

Is there a greener and more practical form of transportation than a bike? An Apollo mountain bike will get you to school quickly, conveniently and, most importantly, in an eco-friendly way! If cycling’s not for you, then how about a Complete Skateboard. Roll up to school every morning on one of these looking cool and confident! The added bonus of both of these is that not only are they good for the environment, but also for you – a bike or skateboard ride to school and home everyday will do wonders for your health! So be a little different this school year and leave the car in the driveway.

However, whether you are biking or boarding, safety comes first! So make sure you get yourself a TsG Evolution Helmet and stay safe on your daily trip. You might also want to consider elbow and knee pads if you are thinking of getting to school Bart Simpson style!

Set the trend with your ‘Go Green’ attitude when you head back to school! You’re helping the environment, helping yourself and helping future generations to do the same things you did over the summer, on an earth just as incredible as it is now!
