Go Green With Transportation

Transport is, without doubt, one of the biggest contributors to green house gas emissions.  The two largest offenders are cars and airplanes.  The way we travel pollutes and fouls the air we breathe and, actually, kills quite a few of us annually in accidents and crashes.

There are many ways that green consumers can reduce the impact of their travel on the planet.  Some of these are to forgo using your car at all and bike, walk, or use public transport instead.  If you must use your car to travel back and forth to work, car-pool with a neighbor or a friend.

Many airlines now offer a green option to offset your carbon footprint when you fly.  These programs charge you an extra $10-$50, depending upon your flight plan, that is donated to an energy conservation program.

Many businesses now teleconference rather than traveling to and from meetings.  This reduces the negative impact of your business on the environment and saves money on the bottom line.

Many of the options available for transport, like biking, walking, and hiking, not only benefit conservation and clean air, but have direct personal health advantages, also.
