Change the Daily Commute

The primary reasons commuters are willing to consider carpooling or vanpooling is to save money, to help the environment, and because they have co-workers or friends who would be convenient to share rides with.  One-third of employees who do not currently carpool indicate they are at least somewhat likely to consider carpooling in the future (9% very likely and 25% somewhat likely).  How can your company help?
