VOICED: Beijing looks to revitalise bicycle culture

The video discusses the efforts of the Friends of Nature group in Beijing to promote cycling amidst increasing car dominance. It highlights the challenges cyclists face due to insufficient bike lanes and traffic congestion. The government has introduced a bike rental service to encourage cycling and reduce pollution. Despite these efforts, the cultural shift towards cars as a status symbol persists, with fewer people choosing bicycles today compared to the 1980s.
