One Less Car

Global Green is thrilled to announce that we are partnering with Bird Scooters for Earth Month!

 
 
 

As the original e-scooter sharing company, Bird launched in Santa Monica, California.  Their mission is simple, “one less car.” We couldn’t agree more and look forward to how Bird is now transforming cities across the world as more and more people opt to take a scooter for short trips around their city instead of their car. 

The greenest mode of transportation is to bike or walk; however, this form of transport is not possible for everyone. Bird  serves the perfect solution, allowing riders to get out of traffic, and make their daily transportation “green.”

Using a Bird to commute to work or for short journeys is a great way to reduce your carbon footprint. Increasing ridership will combat traffic congestion, air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. As a part of our mission at Global Green, we are proud to work with a company that is transforming transportation.

Bird energizes the community and provides a simple, low-cost option for short, efficient journeys. Bird is the perfect choice for one-way or round-trip rides, wherever your destination.

“Most trees alive today won't be able to survive in the climate expected in 40 years,” Tim Brodribb, a physiologist at the University of Tasmania said. A study published on April 17 by the journal Science reviewed the last 10 years of research on tree mortality. It warns that forests and trees in general are in big trouble if global warming continues at its present pace. “The negative impacts of warming and drying are already outpacing the fertilization benefits of increased carbon dioxide.” We need to take care of our planet, and it starts with YOU.

Yes, it’s true. Green solutions can create more job opportunities in different energy sectors. “Here in the US, green stimulus is easily the best way to create good jobs through public investment. According to a 2011 World Bank study, $1 million invested in the oil and gas in the United States creates just five jobs, compared to 17 jobs per million dollars invested in energy-saving building retrofits, 22 jobs for mass transit, 13 for wind, and 14 for solar.” In fact, according to engineering professor Daniel Kammen and other institutes, investing in the green sector is an efficient way of creating more jobs.

Discarded masks and gloves on the street are becoming the norm. Gloves and masks are plastic.  They are damaging our sewer systems, harming our marine ecosystems, and could contaminate workers. Please dispose of your protective equipment properly. Throw your dirty masks and gloves in the trash and make sure the bag is properly sealed before you throw it away. Protecting our people and this planet starts with YOU. - Source: https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/21/us/coronavirus-ppe-masks-gloves-environment-hazard-trnd/index.html
We're bringing awareness to Climate Change through the #HotEarthChallenge ! Our Earth is warming, just like you will with this challenge. Three steps: 1) Spin as long as you can. 2) Take a "shot" of something spicy! (Hot Sauce, cayenne and water, Sriracha, and you can dilute!) 3) Post it on your story, tag some friends to challenge, and tag @GlobalGreen and @citizensclimatelobbyla ! Although this challenge is to bring fun during a difficult time, let's remember that we need to bring awareness, join together and fight climate change.
As we celebrate the 50th anniversary of Earth Day, we remember the importance of preserving our Mother Earth and striving to build a sustainable and coexisting world, between people and nature. These past few weeks have been challenging for everyone with the COVID-19 pandemic, especially for those who have lost loved ones, underprivileged individuals, seniors, and immunocompromised individuals. We sincerely thank those who have been on the frontlines of fighting this pandemic, including our healthcare professionals, food retail workers, and many other essential employees. In a time of challenge, we have seen the world come together and fight against a common enemy.  This battle proves that as humans we are capable of putting our differences aside and joining together to fight another, invisible enemy: Climate Change. The future of our Earth depends on a major sustainable shift in how we function as a society.  It will require us to unite and cooperate with Mother Earth by using the sustainable resources that she naturally provides. We will need to educate, engage, and act on climate change for our children to have a safe and beautiful world to call their home. Together, we must work in harmony with nature and preserve our planet for many generations to come. We've proven to the world that we can set our differences aside, so let's join forces once more, before we no longer have a place to call home.

The ozone layer all over the world keeps depleting. At this rate, the sun’s radiation is not being blocked out and without the ozone barrier in place, all of the sun’s UV radiation will reach Earth, damaging the DNA of plants and animals, especially humans. NASA’s report is concerning for the overall health of the ozone layer, “since Arctic ozone levels are typically high during March and April.” We have a lot of work to do to help make a change before it’s too late. Visit GlobalGreen.org or send us a DM to find out how you can help!
Climate change may be responsible for the next pandemic. How? Alterations in global temperatures result in animal migrations. With many animals not only losing their homes but also being forced to move closer into contact with humans, diseases begin spreading from animals to humans. Scientists have demonstrated, for example, “that the extent to which there is a rise in the world’s average temperature, there is an increase in the range of activity of malaria-transmitting mosquitoes.“ We can stop climate change, we just have to act now.
