September marks a record month for the amount of CO2 emissions reduced by County Connection passengers who use the bus to make their weekday trips since we began tracking emissions savings in 2013. In September, the people riding County Connection buses reduced CO2 emissions by 34,040 pounds every weekday. That’s over 7,400 pounds per weekday more than in September of 2014.
Each person can make a difference. With the system average trip length (one way) of 5 miles, each person who leaves their car at home and uses the bus will reduce CO2 emissions by 4.6 pounds. One person – one day a week – you do make a difference.
