The bicycle has the power to be an important tool in our global fight against climate change . Yet, racing our bikes across the world clearly has a negative impact on the environment. For years, Maghalie has felt a guilt towards this paradox. In this series, she decides to investigate what she can do as an athlete, and what we can do as an industry, to diminish our impact on the environment. — This podcast series is supported by The Unscented Company.

Ep. 1 — What is the environmental footprint of a cyclist for a full season of racing? How do you calculate the emissions from travels and equipment consumption? And what can we do to reduce this impact? On this episode, Maghalie gets help from a fellow Canadian athlete (ski jumper Marion Thenault) to understand how to calculate her travelling footprint, and speaks with an environmental expert at Canyon to understand what is the impact of the her cycling equipment consumption.
