CONCLUSION

After conducting in-depth research, we have acquired all the above


data, from which it is clear that the majority of people live in Nahar
Amrit Shakti and Powai. This has helped us to divide the data into
further groups, through which we have arrived at the following
conclusions:
Among the students who live in Powai, more than 50% prefer private
transports. They have various reasons such as comfort, convenience,
matches the student’s schedule, the fact that they live far away from
school, it’s effective, they reach faster etc. Furthermore, 45% of
students say that they travel for about 5 to 15 minutes per day to reach
school, while 23 take less than 30 minutes. 
Among those who do live opposite to school, four out of five walks to
school, and 4 take the car. Reasons for this include, “it is easier to
reach school”, “I will be late if I use a car due to traffic”, “it improves
your physical well-being” and “the school is close and the crossing is
safe”, among several others, mostly on the same lines. Additionally,
most students from Nahar travel for 5-15 minutes, which is quite
similar to Powai. However, the rest are divided almost equally
between 16-30 minutes, 31-60 minutes and more than an hour. 
If at least three people from the same areas were to carpool our carbon
footprint would reduce by more than 46%. However, we are well
aware that many prefer not to carpool. To make others comfortable
we decided that on one Wednesday every fortnight everyone should
attempt to carpool, cycle, walk or travel by bus. This makes it a very
easy transition for others and will help reduce our carbon footprint. 
Roadside litter is also a result of travelling and to make our trips
greener we must avoid littering anywhere. We propose to clean all the
dirt left by others on picnics, hiking, nature walks etc, once a month.
