Las Vegas Rolls Dice with Sustainable Transportation
Here’s an article on the transformation that Las Vegas is making vis-à-vis sustainable transportation, which focuses on car-sharing. Last time I spoke with my colleague Dan Sturges, transportation visionary, he was hard at work at the strategic planning surrounding this effort.
While I love the concept of car-sharing, personally, I wouldn’t have chosen Las Vegas for such a project.
