Drive thrus: How you can make your coffee greener

Although walking to pick up a coffee might not be an option for you, taking the time to walk into the shop can make that cup of coffee greener. Did you know that if you turn off your car and idle less (go into to get your coffee) you can save an average of 102 kgs of greenhouse gases from being produced? If 100 people committed to doing this and joined The Good Life, they would collectively save an average of 10,200 kgs of GHGs from being produced. That’s the same as taking almost 5 homes off the grid for an entire year! Who knows, this could even lessen the traffic congestion around the drive thru line. Now that’s something to get out of your car for.
