A climate-positive approach

There are a lot of ways biking and walking are good for you and the environment. However, we can go even further than that and take a climate-positive approach to the construction of the trail itself. Concrete production is responsible for 8% of global CO2 emissions. Like the first rail-to-trails conversions, we are targeting a crushed limestone solution. Limestone, when “weathered” by rain, actually removes CO2 from the atmosphere and locks it away.
