Car Pooling

Car Pooling


Do you live by kids who attend the same school as you? If you do, you should really start considering to car pool with them to and from school every day. There are so many people who waste a ton of gas driving to and from school when most people live by classmates and could car pool with them. Today, gas is not very cheap. It has gotten close to four dollars a gallon. That is ridiculous considering how many times people drive a day and then they have to pay fifty dollars to fill up their gas tank. Gas prices are currently a problem in the United States but still people don’t try to solve the problem, including myself.
            Everyone always talks about gas prices and how incredibly high they are/ have been, but not many people try to prevent it. I will see students who live right next door to each other drive two cars to school. Does this make any sense? Not really. Why not drive together and save gas? It could become a little deal where one-week one-person drives and the next week the other person drives. Doing something so simple like that would really decrease the amount of money people are paying for gas.
            Also our global warming would improve a ton from car-pooling with people. When people drive, there are a lot of different gases put out into the air that are causing us to have terrible global warming. I don’t think many people realize this but it is disgusting to what a car does to the environment. I just really hope that whoever reads this could maybe help me spread the word to let people know that car-pooling is probably the best thing to do to save money on gas. The more people we notify about this problem, the more money people will be saving on gas.
