In the US, car travel accounts for the largest share of transportation-related greenhouse gas emissions (GHG). It also contributes to air pollution and negative health effects. About 75% of car trips are single-occupant. To reduce the negative effects of cars, ridesharing and public transit are good options to help mitigate GHG emission and are more cost-effective than driving your own car.
Green Mountain Transit - Green Mountain Transit provides over 2.5 million trips each year, mostly in the greater Burlington area but also through its inter-regional connections via the Link Express.
