World Carfree Day, But Not in Columbus
Did you know today is World Carfree Day? No? Neither did I.As far as I'm aware, there are no local celebrations of World Carfree Day in Central Ohio. In fact, there appear to be no celebrations in Ohio at all. It looks like the concept of "carfree" hasn't hit Buckeye consciousness. Groups like 1000 Friends of Central Ohio are trying to get us to think about light rail and other forms of public transit, though.
Can you imagine Central Ohio going carfree on a Buckeye game day?!
The university is making it possible for tailgaters to recycle now, and they're picking recyclables out of the trash from the stadium. So we're making progress!
