I try and carpool wherever possible, and whenever we go grocery shopping as a household we all make the trip together to save time and fuel. Carpooling means less cars on the road, which means less traffic congestion, less greenhouse gas emissions, less pollution, less consumption of resources, and less noise.

Here is a picture of us carpooling to the Footscray market yesterday to buy fresh, organically grown produce!
