Tucson, May 1, 2009: As the world celebrates Earth Day, AutoGo Auto Transport employees and drivers are preparing to contribute to help unlock solutions to some of the biggest sustainability challenges of our time, including climate change and air pollution.

Through a range of global and local outreach programs, AutoGo Auto Transport has been at the forefront of community projects that address environmental sustainability. AutoGo Auto Transport not only provides employees the opportunity to personally contribute to future global sustainability, but encouraged them to share their knowledge in the communities in which they work and live. Employees are encouraged to make a positive environmental difference, around the corner and around the world.

Through AutoGo’s Make a Change carbon footprint program, employees have together committed to reducing their household carbon footprint by a total of 650 lbs. In the US this equates to an average energy cost reduction of $275 per household.

Operating in a manner that protects and promotes the health and well-being of the environment has long been a core value to AutoGo Auto Transport “At the same time, we're delivering new ideas and solutions that will help build a healthier and more sustainable future both for the planet and its people.”

Vehicles of all kinds are a major consumer of energy and source of air pollution in the United States. Cargo and heavy trucks account about 6 percent of the country’s emissions of carbon dioxide.

The solution to this problem is simple – improve fuel efficiency, move to cleaner fuels, and reduce miles traveled. In order to cut down on global pollutions, AutoGo Auto Transport carriers are encourage to travel with lighter loads, slow down and stop idling. Additional carbon reduction is encouraged with properly tuned engines and combined trips.
