Cleaner,
Greener Transportation
SSNE
and The Hitchcock Center for the Environment, Amherst, MA
Sunday, Feb. 9, 1:00 - 4:00 p.m.
Paul Lipke, Sustainable Step New England
Mark Skinder, Pioneer Valley Biodiesel Cooperative
Travel cleaner, greener and with more fun per mile. Give less money to Osama
bin Laden and "Big Oil." Learn about, look under the hood, and
test-drive cars that run on grease or bio-diesel (made commercially from
vegetable oils or salvaged from restaurant fryer waste) electric, and
gas-electric hybrids while dramatically reducing polluting emissions. Paul and
Mark will share the issues that inspired them, and the steps they took to
convert their own cars. Try out a recumbent bicycle (weather permitting). Then
figure out which clean and green options make the most sense for you given your
particular travel patterns in a Sustainable Transportation Clinic. Biodiesel
and Greasel cars are two examples, but we'll tailor information to meet
attendees interests in mass transit, the most fuel efficient cars in each class
(mini-van, sedan, etc), Zipcars, Clean & Green Maps, bicycling routes, carpooling
resources, and other options to help you get around using less gasoline.
Contact the Hitchcock Center for more info and registration at (413) 256-6006.
