By having more people using one vehicle, carpooling reduces fuel costs and is also seen as a more environmentally friendly way to travel as it reduces carbon emissions.
Car Pooling is a car sharing platform to share a lift within the UK and Europe. Here you can offer or search for vacant seats on journeys within the UK: www.carpooling.co.uk.

Marine litter has a huge impact on the marine environment as more than 1 million birds and 100,000 marine mammals die each year from becoming entangled in or ingesting marine litter
Plymouth City Council is committed to encouraging and developing cycling in the city. Cycling is a good way to stay fit and healthy, it is also cheaper and sometimes a quicker (in the rush hour) way of getting about.
