Got a favourite family walk that you can get to on foot or using public transport? Car Free Walks is an info site for environmentally friendly walkers. The aim is to build up a database of walks that can be reached using public transport. This will provide free information for people who want to reduce their environmental impact by using their car less frequently.
The website already features over 100 car-free walks across England, Scotland and Wales, with more being added each week. Visitors to the website can search for walks near to towns or cities, by county or by the type of walk. Each walk has an outline of the route, points of interest along the way, and a map showing key points to help with navigation. The website also links to information about public transport to and from the walk.
It's easy to submit your favourite car-free walk - simply register and post the details. One criterion is that it must be possible to reach the start and finish of the walk using trains or buses. The site also offers tips for car-free walking. So share your knowledge of the local countryside and help other walkers go carbon neutral!

Hello Melissa,
I'd like to request a phone interview with you focusing on your green blogging and your green activism.
The interview would be on our featured podcast at GreenBlogosphere.com.
The interview would run 15 to 20 minutes, and in the conversation we would also delve into other green issues.
After the interview, I could provide you with the code to "embed" the podcast in your blog or website.
I enjoy and appreciate your work, and it would be great to profile you.
Best,
Tom Tucker
Managing Editor
GreenBlogosphere.com
Thanks for the invitation, Tom.
I would be delighted to speak to you about my blog and green issues.
Look forward to hearing from you.
Best wishes,
Melissa
