Take the Smart Commute Challenge
Looking for a way to lower those greenhouse gasses? How about biking, walking, or riding the bus? I'm trying to take advantage of the nice weather and ride my bike to work a few times a week.
If you live in the Triangle, and need more motivation (and possibly prizes!), check out the SmartCommute Challenge, coordinated by the Triangle Transit Authority. From their website:
The SmartCommute Challenge is an annual non-profit public service campaign that works to reduce traffic congestion and improve air quality in the Triangle.
From April 15 through May 30, any employee or college student who commutes to work or campus in Wake, Durham, or Orange County can participate. To enter the Challenge, make your online pledge that at least once before May 30 you will carpool, vanpool, bike or walk, ride the bus, or telework (work from home).
Everyone who takes the Challenge will be entered into a drawing to win one of several prizes, including a free vacation for two!
Join me, and 3,722 others, and take the pledge today!
