Greening Your Commute

By Coco Clayman Cook

Looking for ways to help the environment?  Here in Los Angeles one of the best ways you can reduce your carbon footprint is to reduce your commute.  I think one of the greatest advantages to living vertically and enjoying the LA Condo Lifestyle is the ability to walk from your condo to work, shopping, night life and world class dining.  It's great for your health and well being and the environment also benefits. 
 
If you don't have the good fortune to live vertically, consider ways you can reduce your gas consumption.  Taking public transportation, even one day a week, has a tremendous impact on the environment.  Car-pooling, working from home and buying energy efficient cars are additional ways that you can positively impact the environment.  How will you change your commute? Buying a hybrid car. If you can't change the commute you can change the way you get there.
