| Description | Natural Resources Canada has developed the Alternative Transportation Fuels (ATF) program to provide Canadians with information on ATFs, and the many benefits of using ATFs. Many areas in North America are adopting tougher vehicle emission standards and controls and the use of ATFs will no doubt increase in the future. The ATF site provides current information on alternative fuel types with brief notes on their safety, vehicle and environmental performance. Some of the ATFs presented include propane, hydrogen power, electric power, ethanol, methanol, and natural gas. |

| Description | Bike Smarts: A Handbook helps teachers, parents, youth leaders and cycling instructors improve the knowledge, skills and attitudes of 7 to 13 year olds to enable them to safely handle their first vehicle - a bicycle. Based on solid learning principles and curriculum learning outcomes, the handbook is organized into six sessions designed in an easy-to-follow format. Teachers with limited bicycling experience can teach the first five sessions. These sessions can be planned for a school yard or gravel field. The sixth session activities involve on-road instruction, and require a CanBike II trained instructor to lead the students. Curriculum opportunities include personal planning, physical education and social studies. For information about how teacher Warren Hamm, who has been using the Bike Smarts program since 1996, has implemented the program visit http://www.toolsofchange.com/english/firstsplit.asp. http://www.icbc.com/communities/roadsense_kids.html |
