If the rest of the world biked about a quarter as much as Amsterdam by 2050—where around 40% of trips happen by bike now—cities could save nearly $25 trillion dollars, according to a new report from the University of California-Davis and the Institute of Transportation and Development Policy. Carbon emissions from urban transportation would drop almost 11%, whereas if current trends continue, they'd double.

"A cycling city can provide an enormous amount of mobility at really low cost compared to a car-oriented city," says Lew Fulton, one of the co-authors of the report.
