Ok, so there isn't really likely a way for you to get there without making any CO2, but what we're going for is that you are walking, biking, or taking some form of electric transportation that is powered by 100% clean energy.

If your city has a clean electric public transit system, but no convenient ways for you to get where you need to, petition them for additional service. If you are planning on walking or biking, see if your school or workplace will install a bike storage area and possibly even showers for bikers.

Step 3: Show your coworkers or fellow students it's possible read more

Once you've done your part, try to encourage others to do the same. A lot of people are skeptical that they can make this change. Showing them that you did it can help make it seem more realistic.

All Done!
