Abstract
The purpose of this page is to show off the Alternative Transportation Wheel that our ERE215 group built for Friends of the Dunes.
Background
Our main goal of the transportation wheel is to get visitors of FOTD to think about the mode of transportation they used to arrive there and the corresponding carbon footprint that they have just produced.
