What's Your Resolution for 2008?
Ditch the car more often and take transit?
Well, this Inland Valley Daily Bulletin article includes some suggestions and one of them includes taking Metrolink Weekends to various places in Downtown LA.
I got a little laugh when I saw "Take the Metrolink" printed in a newspaper article on New Year's Resolutions
That's a good thing! There's probably people out there who still think Metrolink is just for commuting workers.
Other resolutions that might relate to transit and going for green:
- GO GREENER. Look into conservation: Call your local water department and see how you can save on your water bill with new appliances and landscaping. Turn off your lights and use candles.
- USE YOUR vacation time. On average, Americans spend more time commuting, about 100 hours a year, than they do on vacation. California ranks fifth in the nation for the longest average commute time, and San Bernardino made the top 50 counties nationwide with the worst commute times, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Avoid being a statistic. Take a break.
