Space Saving Advantages of Cycling

bromptons-parked The photo to the left illustrates one of the nice things about cycling, the bikes take up much less space than cars.Although we obviously wouldn’t park bikes like this under normal circumstances, the photograph does illustrate how must space could be saved, or used differently, that is currently used solely to park cars. Huge spaces that could provides pleasant green spaces around our working environments.

When I see this photograph I also think about how great it would be if there was a pool of Bromptons at Dundee University that were free for general use by staff, free for the taking as required, and in an ideal world could be used for commuting.

  • Cult of the Green Man gathers news and ideas about green issues, green culture, sustainability, ecology, permaculture, and general veriditas related miscellany.

    The aim is to keep track of my reading and musing on topics related permaculture and sustainability which are increasingly of research interest to me as a domain of application for my skills in argumentation theory, agent software, and defeasible automated reasoning.

    I also love the outdoors, from walking, camping, hunting, fishing, and foraging, to gardening, keeping chucks and Apiary, right through to researching the myths of the green that underpin many of the folk tales told about the British landscape. Hopefully all of these aspects will get some attention on these pages in the future…
