Car pool to the concert and cut the CO2


Wilco isn't the first rock band to encourage their fans to car pool on the way to a concert, but they've provided a facebook application that hooks up drivers and passengers. Transportation to and from concerts is a large contributor of green house gas emissions, so this is just one more way that people can reduce their carbon footprint. Unlike the awkward car pools with strangers that you get through the DOT, this method offers to bring together different people connected by their mutual love of the music. I hope to see this implemented with other music groups in the near future.
