Are you ready to Get There Green?

The transportation sector is one of the highest sources of New York State's greenhouse gas emissions and the largest part of most New Yorkers' personal carbon footprint. Therefore, it is critically important that we all work to reduce our emissions from transportation in our daily lives to improve air quality, benefit our health and the health of others, and help to reduce New York State’s greenhouse gas emissions and ultimately achieve a net-zero economy of the future.

Here's how to participate:

Take Your Trip(s) – Simply walk, bike, take transit, carpool, drive an electric vehicle, or use another form of sustainable transportation for at least one trip (and yes, kayaking and unicycling count if you’re replacing a car trip).

Post – While on your trip(s), and in a safe manner, snap a pic and post it to social media and tag to let everyone know about your awesome green trip!

You can find resources on how to green your trips on the ! website at https://hubs.la/Q04y2LcY0

Celebrate this month of increased awareness of electrification and zero-emission transportation by trying out one of these modes to get to school, work, or wherever you need to go.

Building a sustainable transportation system means accelerating the shift from gas and diesel to cleaner electric options—EVs, electric buses and transit, e‑bikes, and e‑scooters. As e‑mobility options such as City of Rochester, NY's Veo fleet and Floshare continue to expand locally, going electric is becoming easier and more cost‑effective for Rochesterians.
