With growing concerns around the rising cost of fuel and carbon emissions associated with driving, cars are becoming a huge topic of controversy with the battle between sustainability and comfort.
In 2021, domestic transport was responsible for emitting 122 MtCO2e (million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent). 12% of NOX emissions came from cars alone!
22 September marks World Car Free Day, when all around the world towns and cities allow people to experience streets free of motor traffic. It’s a great chance to re-imagine our streets around people.
And while we cannot claim to rid the world of motor traffic in its entirety, did you know that for every one bus journey carried out by Zeelo, we take 30 cars off the road?

With monthly fuel price increases here in South Africa, there could not be a better time to begin looking at practical transport alternatives. Staff transport solutions are just one of the ways in which Zeelo can provide reliable, cost-effective transport solutions for workers experiencing the hardships of rapid inflation, a poor public transport offering and the rising cost of fuel.

Find out more about how you or your organisation can mitigate the fallout of rising fuel costs here: https://travel.zeelo.co/the-rising-cost-of-fuel-in-south-africa/

The fuel price has been raised again in South Africa. It is the third time this year that the price of fuel has been increased by the government.

World Environment Day is a global platform for inspiring positive change around the world. Here at Zeelo, we are passionate about facilitating that change, both internally as part of our own organisation and externally through our offering of 100% carbon neutral services to our riders.

Zeelo has over 100K monthly rides. But taking people out of single-occupancy vehicles and onto shared-mass transportation is not enough for our sustainable mission. Most vehicles, especially buses & coaches, are predominantly run on ICE engines. We decided to go a step further and offset our GHG transportation emissions.

Would you like to know more about how we did that? https://travel.zeelo.co/our-commitment-to-carbon-neutrality/
