Santini Eco-Friendly Jerseys from the 2021 cycling collection: SANTINI SS21 Eco Sleek Dinamo in action

The environment is an increasingly significant subject for consumers and many companies are now adopting eco-friendly strategies, technologies, and products. Bikes are by definition an environmentally sustainable means of transport so bike lovers, in particular, are increasingly focusing on new ways to help safeguard the environment. Santini Cycling Wear has always been a keen Zero Miles advocate. It also introduced several models made from recycled fabrics in 2020 and this year added TIPA compostable packaging to the mix. Even the World Champion jerseys have been sustainable since January 2021.

On top of that, there are the increasing environmental repercussions that modern vehicles bring about. While daily commute to and from work can’t be totally eradicated, it can be done in environmentally friendlier ways. One of them is through cycling.

Cycling is 10 times more important than electric cars for reaching net-zero cities

No Comments on Cycling is 10 times more important than electric cars for reaching net-zero cities

Globally, only one in 50 new cars were fully electric in 2020, and one in 14 in the UK. Sounds impressive, but even if all new cars were electric now, it would still take 15-20 years to replace the world’s fossil fuel car fleet.

The emission savings from replacing all those internal combustion engines with zero-carbon alternatives will not feed in fast enough to make the necessary difference in the time we can spare: the next five years. Tackling the climate and air pollution crises requires curbing all motorised transport, particularly private cars, as quickly as possible. Focusing solely on electric vehicles is slowing down the race to zero emissions.
