Reduce Your Carbon Footprint at UNH
Saturday, May 30th, 2009Did you know the most important way to reduce your carbon footprint is to reduce the use of your car? It’s true! If your car gets 30 mpg and you drive 12,000 miles a year, you will create about 3.55 tons of CO2 each year.
Renting with Bryant Property helps you to reduce your carbon footprint. Our apartments are on the bus line that drops you off right on the UNH campus. Buses run approximately every 7-8 minutes and run all day. This is a very convenient alternative to driving your car to and from campus.
Additional benefit to the UNH student:
- No more searching for a parking spot, saving you time.
- Fill your tank with gas less often, saving you money.
- Less wear and tear on your vehicle, also saving you money.
In addition, Bryant Property is in the process of developing a car share program to eliminate as many cars on campus as possible. Renters of Bryant Property will be able to sign-out the use of an electric vehicle for personal use. Details of the car share program are coming soon.
Typically, every three out of four UNH students bring their car to campus. Our goal is to reduce that number to every one out of four, which will greatly reduce our overall carbon footprint.
The next time your heading to class, ditch the car and hop on the bus. You’ll save yourself time, money, and reduce your carbon footprint.
