Collaborate so that our planet can breathe better too
Also with #Kmquenosunen These kilometres are also encouraged to replace the use of private vehicles, so that at the same time the campaign contributes to improving the health of the entire planet. In this sense, Eva Marotto add that “We HappyAir Coaches encourage you to travel on foot or by bicycle in your daily life, in this way you will get regular exercise and contribute to caring for the environment by using the car less. We encourage all patients to participate in initiatives such as #kmquenosunen to motivate them and challenge themselves to maintain an active lifestyle.”
