Be Eco Friendly

Honk, honk. A taxi drives by – smell the pollution? Taxis pump toxic emissions, including carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrous oxide (NOX), into the atmosphere. Worldwide, municipalities and corporations are taking the initiative to reduce automotive pollution by turning to alternative sources of energy.

Metropolises are going green everywhere, reducing their carbon footprint by using alternative-fueled vehicles. Popular methods include hybrid-electric vehicles, battery electric vehicles (BEVs), compressed natural gas (CNG), solar power, diesel, bio-diesel, and propane technologies. Private companies, such as GOGREENCAR and the Green Taxi Company, use vehicles like the Toyota Prius to green the taxi industry. City governments, in addition to regular Toronto taxi restrictions, are implementing stringent emission and mileage regulations to promote the use of alternative fuels.
