BRUSSELS - Three Asian metropolises - Tokyo, Beijing and Singapore - are the world's leading environmentally-friendly commuting cities, a report to be released by data insight company Kantar on Thursday says.

The study questioned 20,000 commuters in 31 cities around the world about their journeys to work. Seoul boosted the Asian showing, coming in in seventh place. "These cities were built for the car," said Kullen, but praised efforts to shift commuting behaviour to other means of transport. The United Nations' special rapporteur on human rights and the environment has said air pollution causes 7 million premature deaths per year, calling it a"human rights issue" and a"global health crisis."
