The Rideshare Company Will Help Save The Planet
Think that’s too big a promise?
Consider the impact that each car has on the environment. Then multiply that impact by hundreds – thousands regionally and well…you get the idea.
Consider this:
The Rideshare Company Vanpool Operations Result In:
- 442 million less miles traveled
- 12 million fewer vehicle trips
- 220 thousand fewer tons of emissions released into the air
- 21 million gallons of gasoline conserved
The average household uses 1,143 gallons of gas per year
It is expected that the number of cars and trucks on already crowded highways will double in the next 30 years
The Average American spends 434 hours – 18 days – in his/her car each year
Driving your car 20,800 miles a year emits 23,600 lbs of CO2

Cut 25 miles a week from your driving and save 1,500 lbs of CO2
The US could save 33 million gallons of gas – each day – if the average commuting vehicle carried one additional person
