Tri-Rail's "The Green Way to Go!" campaign is South Florida's premier way to save money as well as the environment. Introduced the week of EARTH DAY, Tri-Rail has been promoting their Bio-Diesel commuter trains as the ECO-FRIENDLY way to travel. One SOFLA post states:
For a limited time, those recognizing the environmental benefits of the rail commuting service have the opportunity to be rewarded for their support. In commemoration of Earth Day and Clean Air Month, SFRTA April 23, 2009 – For millions of Americans, eco-friendly living means recycling, running the furnace and air conditioner less often and perhaps switching to energy-efficient light bulbs. While these are all important initiatives, there’s no reason to stop there.

Tri-Rail's Getaway to Yosemite Featured on Terracurve - Travel Responsibly
Tri-Rail is the green way to go to school, work or play with affordable fares and trains every 20 or 30 minutes during rush hours. Plus, it’s a great way to enjoy a relaxed commute, while saving time, money, gas and doing your part to help preserve the environment.
Tri-Rail has been running on biodiesel fuel since October of 2008. Made from either palm oil or soy oil, biodiesel fuel has significantly less impact on the environment than regular diesel. It produces lower emissions and presents fewer hazards when being stored or transported, without sacrificing power or efficiency.
Green Getaway Details:
There are obvious benefits of traveling by rail. In commemoration of this past Earth Day and Clean Air Month, SFRTA (in partnership with Comcast) is giving away a 4-day, 3-night getaway for two to the beautiful Yosemite National Park.

Public Transportation - Save the Environment with Tri-Rail - Go Green!
For a limited time, those recognizing the environmental benefits of the rail commuting service have the opportunity to be rewarded for their support. In commemoration of Earth Day and Clean Air Month, SFRTA (in partnership with Comcast) is giving away a 4-day, 3-night getaway to the beautiful Yosemite National Park.
Tri-Rail
Tri-Rail encourages South Florida to practice eco-friendly routines such as below: (from www.earthday.gov)
Commute for the environment
•Start a carpool or walk, bike, or use mass transportation instead of driving. (http://www.commuterchoice.com/index.php?page=commuters)
•Encourage your employer to be a "Best Workplace for Commuters". (http://www.bwc.gov)
•Learn how every trip you take can affect air quality. (http://www.italladdsup.gov/drivers/)
EPA uses alternative fuel cars and buses vehicles nationwide to reduce emissions.
Green your building
•Apply green building principles to your office buildings. They affect natural resources, land use, energy use, worker and public health, and community well being. With sustainable design - or green building - tools, the federal government can protect human health and worker productivity, reduce costs and risks, and build with greater responsibility towards future generations. Green Building principles lead to building in greater harmony with the environment, consciously sustaining and renewing natural resources. (http://ofee.gov/sb/sb.asp)
•Go Green with GSA. The U.S. Government Services Administration has many environmental initiatives to help federal agencies Go Green. These initiatives range from green products to constructing and leasing green buildings. (http://www.gsa.gov/Portal/gsa/ep/home.do?tabId=10)
•Clean Green. Using environmentally preferable cleaning supplies helps reduce pollution. (http://www.epa.gov/epp/pubs/products/index.htm)
Reduce energy use
•Use Energy Star's energy-efficient office products (http://www.energystar.gov) Make sure that you turn on the energy saving features.
•Turn off your computer monitor, printers, copy machines, and the lights when they are not being used.
•If possible, take the stairs instead of using the elevator.
•Use the consumer's guide to energy efficiency and renewable energy. (http://www.eere.energy.gov/consumer/)
Reduce, reuse, and recycle office products
•Buy recycled content, remanufactured, and recyclable office products, and recycle them when appropriate (including e-cycling electronics). At a minimum, buy recycled paper and recycle it again. See the small business guide to pollution prevention for more information: http://www.epa.gov/ecycling/index.htm.
•Clean Out Your Files and recycle papers you no longer need. Many organizations sponsor cleaning weeks; check with your office management staff.
•Use spell check and proofread before you print or copy. Print double sided whenever possible. Minimize the amount of paper you use.
•Buy reusable office supplies instead of disposable supplies.
•Set up an area to store and exchange reusable office supplies, such as binders
•Recycle fluorescent bulbs properly to prevent hazardous mercury from entering the environment.
