For many of us, walking or using public transportation is not a viable option for getting around on a daily basis, however, there are still plenty of ways we can strive to lessen our carbon footprints.
- Combine errands that are usually spread out over a couple of days into one trip.
- Park and go inside to order food as opposed to using the drive-thru.
- Carpool with neighbors or co-workers at least once a week.
- Buy eco-friendly car parts (like oil filters)
- Keep your car maintained. Change the oil, check the tire pressure, and regularly replace the oil filter.
- Drive an eco-friendly car. Yes, there are some affordable options - The one pictured is the Alpin Hybrid Concept Car. More info here
