First CTrides Week a Success
Last May, commuters in Connecticut came together answering the rally cry from Governor Malloy and pledged to try a green commute during CTrides Week.
  
Workers carpooled, vanpooled, took buses or trains, walked, biked or telecommuted instead of driving alone to work.
 
Headlines Made
They were joined by Hartford's Mayor Pedro Segarra, Senator Beth Bye and DEEP Commissioner Daniel C. Esty and followed by the television, radio, online and print media.
  
This year, it's your turn

Creativity pays off
 

Creativity at DEEP
While caring about the environment in the 21st century is a pressing issue, green commuting initiatives can often be a tough sell for employees hesitant to change their
established routines.
  
Shoe String
Connie Mendolia and Mary Sherwin from the Department of Energy and Environmental
Protection (DEEP) in Hartford have found creative ways for agencies across Connecticut to reap big benefits for their employees at low or no cost.
