zip it.

Considering ditching your car for good, but worry about the occasional trips where bags of groceries outweight arm strength while standing on a bus? Have no fear: Zipcars are here.

Many cities have started programs to make it extremely simple and easy to borrow a car (and in many cities, it’s a hybrid vehicle, too!). You can get your errands done, feel good about your lessened impact, and save dough on car payments, car insurance, and all the car goodies that tend to cramp a pocketbook’s style. Check out the website to see if borrowing a car is possible in your ‘hood.
