Green Challenge
Clayton Lane is co-founder of Phillycarshare.org. Twenty percent of Center City residents now use the eco-friendly service. Now the company is directing people to a site called walkrideshare.org. For the month of May this site is challenging people to reduce your carbon footprint by handing over your keys and rely on walking, public transportation or sharing a ride.
On this website people will share their experience with each other and tell how easy or hard it was to get around on a bike.
On May 1, in exchange for your keys you'll get what's called a mobility package including free phillycarshare driving, a SEPTA pass, discounted Amtrak fares and a personal fitting for a free pair of walking shoes.
