The pace of modern life, the rhythm of urban life makes people live faster. This makes us unable to think about cycling leisurely to school or to work. In the past, it could be due to the adversity of economy, whether people wanted or not, they were forced to use a bicycle for a distance up to dozens of kilometers without thinking.[…] However, nowadays, city people usually own a motorbike and richer people buy cars.

The problem is that emissions from motorbikes and cars in cities are polluting the environment and the atmosphere at an alarming rate. Up to 44% of the pollution has been caused by petroleum and gas comes from car industry and motorcycle industry. This leads to many human health problems. These pollutants are warning our planet, doing harm to our planet and also hurting us.

Bicycles not only help to reduce pollution but also are beneficial to human health. No one can deny the benefits of cycling to help improve people’s health, morale, physique. Therefore, it helps not only ourselves but also our planet, as well as others. What we do now will significantly affect what we leave behind for the next generations.
