text: In Bogota, Colombia, driving was also banned for a day, but not because of high pollutions levels in the area, but because the city feels they should do their part in helping the enviorment. Every year they set up a day when they won't drive, no matter rain, snow, any inconvience at all, is overlooked. They feel that the enviorment is more important than getting a little wet or being a little too cold, all of which are never permanant. The only form of car-like transport allowed was city buses, which even then weren't used very often besides by children or the elderly.
