Metro Magazine: Transit Agencies Celebrate Earth Day
From Metro Magazine:
Stressing its environmental friendliness and the necessity for the entire country to go green, transit agencies around the nation celebrated Earth Day on Wednesday. An individual switching to public transit can reduce his or her daily carbon emissions by 20 pounds or more than 4,800 pounds a year. This is more than the combined carbon emissions reduction that comes from using energy-efficient light bulbs, adjusting thermostats, weather-proofing a home and replacing an older refrigerator with a high efficient refrigerator, according to the American Public Transportation Association (APTA).
