Dutch people cycle an average of 2.6 kilometres each per day. If this pattern was replicated worldwide, the study suggests, annual global carbon emissions would drop by 686 million tonnes.

This mammoth figure exceeds the entire carbon footprint of most countries, including the UK, Canada, Saudi Arabia and Australia.

    That would be viable if we became nocturnal. Existing outside makes me sweat let alone biking.

      Can confirm, cycling at night is more fun (without cars and with headlights), refreshing

          Spare change of clothes and a quick mop is easy The more you exercise the less you will sweat as your body adapts over time The healthier you are and the more you exercise the less you’ll smell when you do sweat.

          There are lots of clothes that wick sweat away and keep smells away

          Its healthier for you overall
