A Greener Way to Vote
John Zimmer, founder and COO of Zimride, an online carpool community, has contacted us to let us know about their Facebook app called "Carpool to the Polls". It allows U.S. voters to find rides on election day so they can go vote, and do while burning as little fuel as possible.
Check out the Carpool to the Polls, either to find a ride or offer yours to others, and if you don't know where your polling station is, you can use this Google Maps voting tool that will automatically tell you if you give it your home address.
