Green Car Rentals

Vroom

by Brook Wilkinson

If you, like me, are a fan of the road trip, you'll be pleased to know that a new online car rental aggregator, Vroom Vroom Vroom, is now offsetting the emissions of its customers' rentals--at no cost to you. Searching for a rental car on Vroom Vroom Vroom is like surfing seven sites all at once: You'll find the best rates from Alamo, Avis, Budget, Enterprise, Hertz, National, and Thrifty. For every rental you book through Vroom Vroom Vroom, the company will purchase carbon credits from The Carbon Neutral Company, with the money going to hydropower, waste reduction, and other green products. It's no solution for the impending climate crisis, but it is a simple way to minimize our damaging effects on the planet.
