lift-sharing

Greener Journeys is a campaign aimed at encouraging people to get out of their cars and onto buses and coaches; a quick and cost-effective way to reduce carbon emissions, pollution and congestion - making life better for everyone all round.

Revealing research  shows that millions of male motorists will happily swap their stereotypical driving music for 'chick hits'... when on their own in the car. One in five men confessed that when alone in their vehicle they enjoy nothing more than singing along to a bit of Shirley Bassey, WHAM! or Take That. And 71% even admit to enjoying a bit of false falsetto (such as the bee gees Stayin' Alive) while waiting for the lights to change.

81% of EU motorists are driving on under-inflated tyres. By pumping up our tyres we could cumulatively save 4.0 billion litres of wasted fuel, worth €5.2 billion, and avoid 9.3 million tons of CO2 emissions.

Under-inflated tyres also wear out much quicker, so when yours need replacing look for low-rolling resistance tyres with good wet and dry grip.

VOSA's emissions-testing unit for the 2008 Revolve eco-rally will be zero emissions at the point of use – using the same fuel cell technology many believe will one day power the average car.

isanyonegoingto.com (Is Anyone Going To) is the fastest growing car-share site in the UK. The aim is to encourage vehicle users to adopt smarter and safer driving behaviour, therefore reducing emissions and saving lives. They are used by large organisations keen to reduce their environmental impact and are helping individuals to get to big events like Glastonbury.

Inspired by World Environment Day and the Love London, Love Your Planet festival, Revolve is challenging eco-motorists to prove you are really kicking the carbon habit.
