“Go Loco” Really Isn’t Crazy–It’s Just Good Green Sense

The “greening” of America is finally catching on…and I love it!  Recently, I stumbled across a neat idea for transportation…an online community where you can hook up with others for similar destinations and share the cost.  You can carpool to school, to church, to sports games, or even find someone to share longer distance travel across the U.S.!  It’s a great concept. The GoLoco (www.GoLoco.org) folks make their money by charging 10% of the travel costs, so if 3 people (2+ the driver) decide to go see the Mavericks play, the mileage is determined and then a cost of 50 cents per mile is calculated. If two riders participate, then 1/3 of the trip is charged to each of them, with 10% of the trip cost going to the GoLoco folks.  I think it’s a great idea.  And I bet more of these communities will be popping up.  If you know of some other  GREEN ideas like this, please share them!

And in the meantime, Live Fit, Live Strong, Laugh Often.  Happy Monday!
