Green Transportation
One of the biggest contributors to climate change and pollution is our cars. Transportation is a staple of our society; we need to commute to our jobs and school and make trips to the store. But there are easy steps each of us can take to lessen our impact on the environment.
Simple changes you can make include: using public transportation, share-a-ride, walk or bike more and drive less, and practice good driving and car maintenance.
