Impact of Bicycling on the Environment

A few lectures ago, Professor Tantillo mentioned there are people who claim that bicycling is harder on the environment than driving. I think I have found the paper he was talking about:

THE ENVIRONMENTAL PARADOX OF BICYCLING
Karl T. Ulrich

The basic idea is that bicycling increases human health and longevity, which in turn increases the population's strain on resources.

Have fun with that one!
