Thank you to all participants!

Charlotte Air Awareness, in partnership with Charlotte Area Transit (CATS), Connect Centralina and Sustain Charlotte, hosted a 4 week-long trip reduction campaign. The goal of this campaign was to reduce air pollution by avoiding drive alone trips, zero emission trips are also eligible. Participants could avoid a drive-alone trip in many ways, such as carpooling, vanpooling, avoiding driving at lunch, riding public transit, biking, walking and teleworking.

This year we had a total of 1,511 entries and 192 individual participants. The image (below) displays the numbers of trips avoided per Fresh Air Ride activity, all adding up to 1,784 trips avoided.
