Car sharing is an alternative to owning a car. As a member of a car sharing network, one has access to a fleet of cars, vans and trucks which can be reserved by phone and ready to ‘rent’ for a short period of time (an hour or a week). It is less costly than owning a car because members pay-per-trip and there is no commitment. Since there are many members sharing a limited amount of vehicles, car sharing reduces the amount of pollution released from transportation.
