Why does the Hawai‘i Energy Policy Forum care about CarSharing?
Transportation consumes 61% of the oil we import each year!
Focus on Ground Transportation Hawai‘i simply cannot meet is 70% clean energy goal by 2030 without reducing the amount of oil consumed by Hawai‘i’s ground transportation sector. Carsharing is a strategy proven to help reduce vehicle miles traveled (VMT). Reducing VMT reduces petroleum consumption. Reducing VMT in the transportation sector is like energy efficiency in the energy sector.
