Walk Try making a few of those short trips on foot especially during the sunny summer months. These signals make a sound when the walk sign is lit. Call to request installation. If you don t need a car every day, maybe you should share a car instead of owning one. Members of CarSharing Portland have access to many new cars and a pickup truck without the expense and hassles of ownership.
Members pay for the hours and miles driven.
All insurance, gasoline, and repairs are included in the low rates. Starting a car after it has been turned off for an hour pollutes up to five times more than when the engine is warm. One option is telecommuting working from home or a location close to home. Another option is flex-time organizing your work schedule to cut out commuting trips. Reducing your driving is especially important on hot summer days.
