Glaciers are melting.
Ocean reefs are dying. Weather patterns are changing.

You hear the scientific explanations and you understand the implications. You're ready to do your fair share to help turn these problems around. You want to reduce green house gases and lower your carbon footprint.

Or at least you say you do.

So why are you driving your car to work every day?

Just One Day A Week™

Everyone can make up an excuse why they need to drive their car during the work week. But, if you think about it, do you really need to drive every single day?

If you rode public transportation Just One Day A Week, you could:

• Reduce your CO2 emissions by almost 2,000 pounds per year.*
• Save hundreds of dollars in gas each year, as well as up to 20% of wear and tear on your car.*
• Save on parking fees and tolls.
• Spend your time doing something constructive instead of being stressed out fighting traffic. Catch up on your reading, learn a foreign language, write letters, or enjoy a cup of Joe.
• Meet others like you who care about the environment and are committed to doing something to help.

Just think, if everyone who normally drives a car rode mass transit one day a week, that could mean a 20% reduction in green house gases created by cars during the work week. That could make a significant impact on our reliance on foreign oil and help conserve our natural resources for future generations.

Encourage your co-workers, your family, your friends and your neighbors to join you and ride public transportation Just One Day A Week. Ask your transit company to participate with special Just One Day A Week passes. If we all join in, we can make a huge difference!
