09 Feb Condense and Go Green!

What’s the great thing about a Leatherman?  Instead of carrying 17 different tools around, you can have all of them on a handy little gadget that fits in your pocket.  Or, have you ever been at a flower shop, trying to decide what flowers you want to buy?  And, in the end, you want some of several kinds?  There are white petunias in one flat, purple in another, a striped variety over here, and a deep pink color over there, and you want them all.  What’s the natural thing to do?  You grab one flat container and fill it with all the various six packs combined; it’s a lot easier than carrying four or five different flats, each with only a couple of six packs of flowers in them, right? In this post we are going to discuss how you can simplify and go green.

Well.  Condensing applies to transportation, too.  Carbon dioxide, a key component of car exhaust, is harmful to our environment and is contributing to greater global problems at large, not to mention the air quality of the areas in which we live, too.  As much as we hate the smog in the wintertime, it’s a visual statement to what cars are emitting into our air all the time—we just can’t usually see it!  

Although you and I can’t wave a magic wand and give everyone an electric car to significantly reduce the carbon dioxide being released into the atmosphere every day, we can be more environmentally-conscious in our transportation choices.  And (this is shameless, we know), a motorcoach is just one great way to do this!  Like the Leatherman and flower examples, choosing to condense (in this case, drive fewer vehicles) is a better choice.  Why?

Well, for starters, our coaches can carry up to 57 passengers at one time.  While this may not seem like any big deal by itself, you realize the implications of it environmentally when you compute that riding in a motorcoach contributes to removing up to 57 other cars off the road.  And, some of our coach models run off of CNG, a choice that is better for the environment, too.  

So, when you want to make a simple choice for your day that you can feel good about, go green and choose a motorcoach!  Whether you provide it for your employees for a work shuttle each morning or get one for an upcoming sightseeing tour with friends, there’s no doubt about it: when it comes to the environment, one vehicle is better than many!
