The SmartWay Transport Partnership is collaboration between EPA and the freight industry to increase energy efficiency while significantly reducing greenhouse gases and air pollution.
SmartWay Transport Affiliates are trade and professional associations, nonprofit environmental, energy, and community organizations, school and university groups that are committed to promoting greater energy efficiency and air quality within the freight transport sector. A great idea on behave of the EPA yet Puerto Rico has only one member, the PRMA. Now what are the municipalities, Lajas, and universities, UPRM doing to promote and educate? What is el municipio de Lajas doing to manage its fleet of cars and heavy vehicles in order to reduce waste, Co2 emissions and contribute to a green municipio? How about requiring small boats to use electric motors vs. gas driven, gas guzzling engines? How about using hybrid automobiles instead of the fuel hungry Ford Crown Victory used by the Mayor and his staff members?
Ever wonder what the EPA mileage is? How about 15/23 Mpg and a C02 foot print of 10.2
Time for the municipal staff to wake up and take action; what is your take on the matter?
