Trees For the Future
When Clean Air Cab started, we made a commitment to plant 10 trees for each cab we put on the road. We are keeping that promise with one of our important Partners, Trees for the Future. In February we planted another 250 trees with Trees for the Future to bring our total to 1,280. We are planing these trees in São Paulo State, Brazil to support one of Trees for the Future’s current projects.
Please check out their website, where you can learn more about where and how they plant trees. You can also donate or purchase a certificate for someone else.

Clean Air Cab is Greater Phoenix’s First Complete Fleet of Eco-Friendly Taxis
PHOENIX (Feb 10, 2010) – Yesterday Clean Air Cab received word that an official recall was being issued on the 2010 Toyota Prius. Since the fleet of 25 vehicles operated by Clean Air Cab is comprised of the vehicle targeted by the recall, company management has been in constant communication with Toyota Motor Corporation to immediately remedy the issue.
Through yesterday and early this morning the entire Clean Air Cab Fleet was inspected by the local Toyota dealers. Maintenance per Toyota’s recall guidelines has been performed to ensure the safe operation of the vehicle.
Clean Air Cab management is happy to report that our fleet of cars has completed the recall requirements.
“The safety of our customers and drivers is paramount,” said Steve Lopez, owner of Clean Air Cab. “Once we received official notification of the recall, we immediately brought our cars to the dealership and only allowed vehicles that had been properly inspected to get back on the road in service as taxicabs. We look forward to continuing to serve the transportation needs of Valley locals and visitors, safely, reliably and affordably.”

Earth Hour 2010 is off to an incredible start! All around the world, people, organizations and communities are joining the movement. Here in the United States, thousands of people from all 50 states are uniting in the fight against climate change by sharing the Earth Hour message. Together our voice is growing louder.
Today we need to use that voice to get our state governments to join us in the movement. Click the link below to urge your state officials to join hundreds of communities around the world in turning off the lights on March 27th as part of the largest-ever global call for action on climate change. This is our chance to raise awareness and get people involved with the fight against climate change. Use your voice. Make sure your state doesn’t sit on the sidelines.

Turn out. Take Action.
Earth Hour. March 27, 8:30-9:30 p.m., local time. Mark your Calendars!
About Earth Hour:
Since its inception three years ago, Earth Hour has captured the world’s imagination becoming a global phenomenon. Last year, for Earth Hour 2009 nearly one billion people in 4,100 cities in 87 countries on seven continents turned out. In the U.S. alone, 80 million Americans and 318 cities officially voted for action with their light switch. These people and municipalities were joined by iconic landmarks including: the Las Vegas Strip, the Chrysler and Empire State Buildings in New York City, the Space Needle in Seattle, Church of Latter-Day Saints Temple in Salt Lake City, the Gateway Arch in St. Louis and the National Cathedral in Washington DC. International landmarks that turned off their lights included the Great Pyramids of Giza, Parthenon in Athens, St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City, Big Ben and Houses of Parliament in London, Paris’ Elysee Palace and Eiffel Tower, Beijing’s Birds Nest and Water Cube, Symphony of Lights in Hong Kong, Sydney’s Opera House and Christ de Redeemer status in Rio de Janeiro.
Clean Air Cabs Are Carbon Neutral
Clean Air Cab offsets our cabs’ carbon emissions through the purchase of “Carbon Credits” from CarbonFund.org. We have purchased enough credits to ensure all of our cabs are carbon neutral through 100,000 miles and will continue to offset them after that. It’s simply what we do! Since we offset our entire fleet, we have the ONLY 100% Carbon Neutral TaxiCab Fleet in Arizona.
We are often asked about the specifics of these credits and what projects they are connected to. Our first round of credits is helping fund Truck Stop Electrification projects. This project reduces the emissions from large over the road trucks by offering them electricity and temperature control in their trucks’ cabin while they rest at a truck stop.
IdleAire Truck Stop Electrification
IdleAire is the company that has provided a solution. There are an estimated 1.3 million long-haul trucks with sleepers than can take advantage of this service rather than idling their engines during required rest periods of 10 hours for every 11 hours on the road. This helps reduce a whole lot of carbon emissions across the entire country!
The extensive amount of research performed by IdleAire in developing its product has made the company one of the recognized experts in fields ranging from energy and technology to health and the environment. Some of the most significant results of that research are summarized in a collection of fact sheets that can be found on their website – CLICK HERE

Rally for Parks and Conservation
Environmental Day at the Capitol
Monday, February 1, 2010
10:30 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.
Arizona House of Representatives lawn
1700 W. Washington St., Phoenix
What you’ve heard is true: the legislature is devastating parks funding, forcing more closures. We need to speak up for Parks! Join us on Monday, February 1, 2010 for Environmental Day at the Arizona State Capitol, located at 1700 W. Washington in Phoenix. We’ll have a brief program on the House Lawn. Speakers will focus on the devastation to parks and environmental programs from the last legislative session and let us know how we can turn the tide.
Bring a brown bag lunch to enjoy while listening to the speakers. We’ll provide tables and chairs, drinks, and cookies for dessert. We’ll try to time it so we can go inside and be introduced from the floor as a group. Let’s try to make a strong showing.
We also encourage everyone to attend committee hearings and meet with individual legislators. Hearings for the House and Senate Natural Resource committees meet that afternoon. The best time to meet with legislators is prior to 11 a.m. or after 1 p.m. We can help you set up appointments, give you information on how to set them up, provide background information, and also team you up with someone, if that is your preference. It is important that they hear from you. No experience is needed – just enthusiasm and a willingness to speak up. For more information or to RSVP contact Janice Miano at (602) 528-7500 or mail@azheritage.org or Sandy Bahr at (602) 253-8633 or sandy.bahr@sierraclub.org
Please let us know if you plan to attend, so we can be sure and have enough packets, snacks, and drinks.
If you cannot make it to the Capitol on Monday, February 1st, PLEASE CALL YOUR LEGISLATORS!!!
Arizona Senate (602) 926-3559 or toll-free 1-(800)-352-8404
Arizona House of Representatives (602) 926-4221 or toll-free 1-(800)-352-8404
Our partner – Trees for the Future estimates their agroforestry trees, planted in tropical climates, will sequester atmospheric carbon dioxide at an average of 50 pounds of carbon dioxide per tree per year.
The rate of carbon sequestration depends on the growth characteristics of the tree species, the conditions for growth where the tree is planted, and the density of the tree’s wood. It is greatest in the younger stages of tree growth, between 20 to 50 years.
To get a yearly sequestration rate they divide by the tree’s age.
To see the more detailed calculation, please CLICK HERE here for the document from Trees for the Future.
While you are there, you might want to signup to plant some trees or purchase a certificate for a loved one.
