Park Ride Fly USA Helps Travelers Go Green This Holiday Travel Season
WEST HARTFORD, Conn.--More than 100 million Americans are projected to travel this holiday season, creating travel-related stress and millions of pounds of carbon dioxide, the pollutant scientists believe is most responsible for global warming.
Many travel industry companies are working to reduce the environmental impact of travel. Park Ride Fly USA, the Web's fastest growing seller of offsite airport parking, has partnered with TerraPass to launch a Green Travel Resource Center. The Green Travel Resource Center offers green travel tips that make it easy for travelers to reduce their carbon emissions each time that they fly, such as booking non-stop flights and avoiding car size upgrades at the rental car counter.
"To explore the world does not mean that you have to harm it," said Peter Wertheim, Park Ride Fly USA's director of business development. "The Green Travel Resource Center offers easy-to-use tips to make all of our travels more eco-friendly. And TerraPass is an ideal partner for this effort, since its support for clean energy projects has already reduced more than 500 million pounds of CO2 emissions."
"We're proud to partner with Park Ride Fly USA," said TerraPass CEO Erik Blachford. "They are leading their industry by educating customers on green travel. Now, working together with TerraPass, Park Ride Fly USA will be able to offer travelers an effective way to balance out the carbon emissions from their trips."
