In 2007, China launched the Green Transport and Health week campaign. The campaign ends with a No Car Day Saturday.
This Chinese national urban transport campaign was launched by the Ministry of Construction. During the week of September 22 walking, biking, public transportation, and carpooling are encouraged. On No Car Day they will have special 'green zones' in hundreds of cities. These normally vehicle congested areas will be open only to pedestrians, bicycles, and buses from 7am to 7pm.
This campaign is planned to be an annual event. It is estimated that the 2007 campaign saved 33 million liters of gasoline and cut emissions by 3,000 tons
