    Join the Dots - Travel

    Sligo local, Martina, takes to her bike and investigates other simple ways that she can cut her transport emissions. She gets advice from ATU Sligo's transport expert, Brian McCann and Gemma Woods of Sligo Cycling Campaign. Here we are encouraging anyone to dip their toes into the notion of sustainability. We circumvent complicated science to look at what sustainability means in a more everyday sense - how we can tweak things in different aspects of our lives to leave a little less impact on the planet and be more positive for the world around us. We're trying to offer a little bit of something for everyone - taking in everything in life from food and diet, household cleaning and travel to biodiversity and fast fashion. Take your pick!
