1000 Flowers for the Planet - #109 Car Pool
Does someone else at your office drive
the same route as you? Ask them to car-pool. Two or three co-workers (four
would be even better) can take it in turns to drive everyone to work. This
allows each person to save on wear and tear of their vehicle by reducing annual
usage, uses less fuel and promotes better relationships with other human
beings.
Maybe your children play sports or do
some extra-curricular activity that enables you to car-pool with other parents
by taking it in turns to run the kids to and fro.
Organising an event? Going to a wedding
/ party / nightclub? Open a conversation with others to see how you can
car-pool to the venue.
You will help the planet by using fewer
resources, creating less pollution and contributing less to traffic congestion,
and the upside is that you will be able to interact with more people.

Hi Marg!
When I organise my Stitching group's annual Retreat Weekend, I put a page in the folder for car pooling. The columns are "I'm Driving", "I'm a Passenger" and "Help! I Need a Ride!" :)
