That&#8217;s still how most of us conceive of a college student&#8230; but that hasn&#8217;t been the norm for quite some time. Most students live off-campus and commute, which often means a single person in a single car.\u00a0Not quite so sustainable, huh?<\/p>\n<p>So, how&#8217;s a student supposed to get to class on time while maintaining his\/her ecological values? <a href=\"http:\/\/cleantechnica.com\/2013\/01\/03\/gondolas-as-next-generation-of-mass-transit-in-big-cities\/\">Mass transit<\/a> is one option; <a href=\"https:\/\/sustainablog.org\/2013\/01\/safe-bicycling-in-the-city-the-green-lane-project\/\">walking and\/or biking<\/a> are others. If you&#8217;re not in an urban setting, though, these may be difficult; in that case, carpooling\/ride sharing may be \u00a0your best option. The following infographic lays out the environmental and financial benefits of sharing rides to class, and even provides some suggestions for organizing your carpooling group.<\/p>\n<p>Do you share rides with fellow students?
