Conservation recommendation for transportation

#23: Consolidate car trips once this week

The average American makes almost four car trips each day. Planning and consolidating these trips so you don’t retrace your steps can save a lot of time and carbon. Over the course of a year, a 10% reduction in the number of miles you drive might save 55 gallons of gas and over 1000 lbs of CO2.

Help me do this!

Start keeping driving to-do lists. Rather than just jumping in the car whenever you think of something, add it to the list and wait until you have a few to-dos before you turn the key. Plan your trip so you go to the furthest destination first — that will help your engine and bearings warm up for the rest of your stops.
