Impact
In every choice you make
73% of the world actively seeks to change consumption behavior to reduce negative environmental impact (Nielsen, 2018). In other words, most of the world’s humans are now aware of the challenges we collectively face, and want to do something about it. But where to begin?

Cars account for 28.2% of total U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, making it one of America’s largest contributors to environmental degradation, health epidemics such as asthma and obesity, and even psychological disorders (road-rage is real!).
Carsharing, associated by many with UberPOOL and Lyft Line, offers an easy and safe alternative to traditional car ownership. With over 1,000 cities around the world now enjoying carsharing services, the impact is demonstrable.
