This book discusses the potential of travel behaviour modification (TBM)
as a persuasive tool to promote low-carbon mobility among adolescents on
Penang Island by highlighting the role of bus usage in a sustainable
urban lifestyle. The participants of the Reduce Carbon Footprint
Campaign, which aimed to create sustainable transport and
pro-environmental awareness among adolescents, were recruited from
secondary schools on Penang Island. Campaign materials, such as bus
routes maps and discount travel cards for students, were provided by
Rapid Penang, the leading bus operator in Penang. The campaign also
involved several intervention programmes, including motivational
sessions and classes for travel journey planning.
