Going Green in Los Angeles This Week

I am on the road in Los Angeles this week and decided this was the best city to continue my efforts to go green in my life. Hertz now offers the Toyota Prius Hybrid as part of their rental fleet, so I specifically requested this car when I made my reservation. At $200 a week for the corporate rate, not only do I keep my gas consumption down, I  am able to spew less pollution in the legendary LA traffic jams. The customer wins too, because it brings some of the costs of my  being out here down.

So I offer this challenge to my colleagues out there. If you are travelling alone, go ahead and rent a hybrid. Every time someone does a little bit to help the environment, everyone benefits in the long run.
