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.
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.
By switching to public transportation for a daily 20-mile round-trip commute, one person can reduce up to 4,800 pounds of carbon emissions and save more than $8,000 a year according to the American Public Transportation Association. No other single change has such a significant, measurable impact, and what’s more — public transportation helps create a cleaner environment and improves our quality of life.
In commemoration of Earth Day and Clean Air Month, consumers can visit www.tri-rail.com to register for the chance to win a 4-day/3-night Green Getaway for 2 to the beautiful Yosemite National Park, compliments of Comcast. The package includes:
