Potential of active transport to improve health, reduce healthcare costs, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions: A modelling study
BACKGROUND: Physical inactivity contributes substantively to disease burden, especially in highly car dependent countries such as New Zealand (NZ). We aimed to quantify the future health gain, health-sector cost-savings, and change in greenhouse gas emissions that could be achieved by switching shor...
