Earth Day Every Day: How Riding an E-Bike Helps You Protect the Planet

At FAFREES, we’ve always been committed to building a cleaner, greener world through innovative, everyday mobility. With every e-bike we create, we aim to reduce emissions, encourage active lifestyles, and make sustainability more accessible.

And what better moment to reaffirm that mission than Earth Day?

Every year on April 22, over 1 billion people in more than 190 countries come together to celebrate Earth Day — a global call to action for protecting our planet.

This year, why not make your daily commute a form of climate action?

 

E-Bikes vs Cars and Motorcycles: The Emission Equation

Transportation accounts for 24% of global CO₂ emissions, with passenger vehicles alone responsible for 45% of that, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA).

Let’s compare the approximate CO₂ emissions per kilometer:

  • 🚗 Gasoline car: ~120g CO₂/km
  • 🏍️ Motorcycle: ~100g CO₂/km
  • ⚡ E-bike: just ~22g CO₂/km (mostly from electricity generation and production)

That’s potentially an 85% reduction in emissions — just by switching from driving to riding an e-bike.

What Does That Really Mean?

We know “grams of CO₂” doesn’t mean much to most people. Here’s how you can visualize the impact:

Riding 500 km on an e-bike instead of driving saves approximately 49 kg of CO₂ — that’s equivalent to:

  • 🔋 Charging 6,000 smartphones
  • 💡 Powering an LED lightbulb for 2,000 hours
  • 🌳 What one mature tree absorbs in a whole year

Or think of it this way: if you swap your car for an e-bike for your commute just 3 times a week, in one year you've:

  • 🌱 Avoided the emissions equivalent to over 1,500 km of car travel
  • 🌲 Made the same positive environmental impact as planting 10 trees

And you achieved this positive impact as part of your daily routine.

 

Go Further. Do More with Long-Range E-Bikes.

The more you ride, the bigger your positive environmental impact — which is why long-range e-bikes are so essential for replacing more car journeys.
