Clean Air Cab

At Clean Air Cab our mission is to make it affordable and convenient for everyone to go green. We plan to accomplish this by offering carbon neutral taxicab rides for less money than our local top competitors. Many people think it is expensive, bulky and time-consuming to go green. At Clean Air Cab our vision is to change that. We want going green to be more than just the right choice - we want it to be an easy choice and an inexpensive choice. That's right; at Clean Air Cab we are helping you go green for less. The traditional Taxicab produces 71.8 tons of CO2 per year compared to the 2010 Toyota Prius which produces only 24.7 tons. Offsetting our emissions by purchasing carbon credits, our taxicabs leave an invisible footprint; making Clean Air Cab Arizona's carbon neutral taxicab fleet. We also go one step farther by investing in local and global reforestation making our cabs carbon negative! Our entire fleet is composed of brand new Toyota Prius' and we have also partnered with a local company to offset the small amount of emissions produced by our vehicles. Clean Air Cab makes a conscious effort to choose vendors that are local in effort to support small business and our local community. We also create green jobs with opportunities for our employees to become savvy business owners through seminars and education tools that we provide. At Clean Air Cab we believe that Philanthropy is a way of life. We plant ten trees per month for each cab we have on the road and we also encourage our employees to perform volunteer work and give back to the community. Not only do we believe in helping the environment, we also believe in helping people. Our business model is to take care of our employees so we can make sure our employees take care of you. We believe in making business decisions that are win-win for everyone doing business with our company.
Our taxicabs will be hitting the streets of Phoenix this fall. At Clean Air Cab, while we believe in clean air, we also believe in clean cabs. Our brand new taxicabs will always be clean and fresh for your ride. We are proud of our service and we are also proud to be creating green jobs in the community. In these challenging economic times we are facing as a country, we feel creating new eco-friendly jobs and offering a premium service at a budget price are the best ways we can contribute to our community. We are proud and excited for the adventure that lies ahead of us as we prepare to launch our new company. Please show your support for our vision by voting for us below. Help us change the taxicab paradigm and create a "green" taxi revolution!
Lets help save the planet and get a ride from this company!

Urban Wildlife in Arizona

By Arizona Game & Fish Department
http://www.azgfd.com/

People who live in or visit Arizona can expect to see many species of wildlife. More and more often though, wild animals are venturing into areas where people live. Sometimes the wildlife becomes a problem, either by hammering on the side of the house, digging a den under the front porch, or eating all of your brand new landscaping plants. You can usually enjoy wildlife watching from a distance, but sometimes wildlife encounters involve conflict.
Preventing problems with wildlife is much simpler and less aggravating than dealing with the problems after they occur. Fortunately, taking a few simple steps can help you prevent many of the most common wildlife-related problems around your home. A number of proven methods can be used to solve the problem when it cannot be prevented. These web pages were developed to provide residents of Arizona with information about how to coexist with Arizona’s wildlife, especially in urban areas.
