HopSkipDrive Hails CO2 Savings

Los Angeles-based school ride provider HopSkipDrive, which provides rides to and from school to kids as a way for school districts to reduce school busing costs, says its "SmartPooling" service has saved 160,000 pounds of CO2 for school districts, as a result of reducing single occupancy rides and matching students together for transportation. The company says it is now providing information to school districts on their "sustainability impact", giving insights into the number, and percentage, of HopSkipDrive rides and miles completed in hybrid or electric vehicles.
