Across
  1. 2. the action of moving people or objects from one place to another place.
  2. 4. is essential for supporting safe and abundant bicycle use, the increased installation of bicycle paths, thereby limiting emissions.
  3. 5. have a battery instead of a gasoline tank and an electric motor instead of an internal combustion engine, reduce harmful gas emission from cars
  4. 7. one of the 3 harmful gases that cars emit (HINT: N_2O)
  5. 11. the total greenhouse gas emissions caused by an individual, event, organization, service, or product, expressed as carbon dioxide equivalent
  6. 12. a way to reduce the amount of cars being used at once, therefore reducing emissions. Social media and smartphones have helped this. Some examples of this would be carpooling, Uber and Lyft.
  7. 14. reducing emissions to prevent impacts (HINT: a state encouraging residents to ride bicycles instead of driving)
  8. 15. one of the 3 harmful gases that cars emit (HINT: CH_4)
  9. 16. high-performance visual, audio, and network technologies, so people can interact across geographies and it cuts down on travel -especially flying.
  10. 17. pedestrians take place of cars, reducing emissions
Down
  1. 1. a natural fuel, like coal or gas, formed in the geological past from the remains of living organisms (HINT: this produces large quantities of carbon dioxide when burned)
  2. 3. an alternate form of transportation that would reduce greenhouse gas emissions by reducing the use of fossil-fuel transportation
  3. 6. the point in the future when level of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere stop climbing and start to steadily decline (HINT: the goal)
  4. 8. one of the 3 harmful gases that cars emit (HINT: CO_2)
  5. 9. how much money people could save if they switch to public transportation
  6. 10. type of gases that contribute to warming in the atmosphere by absorbing heat
  7. 13. South Carolina provides that, notwithstanding any other provision of law, if a bicyclist, approaches an intersection that is controlled by a traffic-control device, the bicyclist may proceed through the intersection on a steady red light only if the bicyclist:comes to a full and complete stop at the intersection for one hundred twenty seconds; and while exercising due care, treats the traffic control device as a stop sign, and determines it is safe to proceed.
