Transportation and Accommodation Overview

The transportation sector is one of the main sources of global warming pollution, smog, carbon monoxide, and harmful particles that can cause asthma and other respiratory illnesses, cancer and other health problems. By reducing the need for automobile transportation and promoting environmentally preferable forms of transportation and accommodation – through employee incentives, convenient construction or event siting, access to public transportation, alternative fuels, carpooling, and efficient vehicles – your organization can reduce its contributions to these harmful effects.
