The article by Mohamed Issa discusses the potential shift from walking to bicycle riding as a primary mode of transportation for low-income earners in African cities. It references a study on non-motorised transport in Kenya and Tanzania, highlighting that while cycling is uncommon in larger cities, it accounts for about 20 percent of all daily trips in smaller ones. Another study emphasizes the environmental benefits of cycling, suggesting that it can help reduce carbon emissions and combat global warming. The latter study indicates that cyclists emit 84 percent less carbon than motorists in various international cities and suggests that switching from car to bicycle can significantly reduce one's carbon footprint. The article suggests that cities should promote 'active travel' to move towards decarbonised transport and achieve zero emissions by eliminating motorised vehicles, particularly private cars.
