During the month of June, our Hospital participated in the TBay on the Move Active Commute Challenge. This Challenge encouraged staff to rethink their ride to work by choosing an active mode of transportation such as walking or cycling, or using public transit. Actively commuting to work is a great way to incorporate physical activity into your daily routine and help the environment.
As a community, we have reduced our greenhouse gas emissions by 4195.88 kg and travelled 20,496.68 km.
Our Hospital finished in second place for large workplaces and were awarded two city bike racks. Our team was able to save 348.35 kg of greenhouse gas emissions and commuted a total distance of 17,01.11 km.
Thank you to all of our staff who participated in the challenge! Congratulations to Govind, who was the top commuter on our Hospital’s team as of July 1st. He commuted a total distance of 180.83 km throughout the month of June with cycling being his main choice of transportation. For being the top commuter at our Hospital during the challenge, Govind has been awarded a $100 gift card to Fresh Air.
