Tuesday, July 31st, 2007

Come check out First Thursday’s event in the Pearl. In appreciation of green transportation and sustainable practices, our white w/ green decaled Sprinter should stand out in the crowd! First Thursday has never been so hot and green at the same time

Biofuel in Portland

Sunday, July 29th, 2007

I was biking past Jay’s Garage in SE Portland on Friday and saw a biodiesel tanker truck filling the tanks for the first time since the remodeled and upgraded tank system was completed.

“Islands of People”

-Islands of People-

I don’t believe that the solutions in society will come from the left or the right or the north or the south. They will come from islands within those organizations; islands of people with integrity who want to do something…

—Robèrt Karl-Henrik

Ecoshuttle is here. We are a small island of people who want to do something. This blog, Islands of People, has been created with the intent to inform its readers about issues that matter to us. I hope it will be a place that people come to learn and engage global and local issues as they relate to our business and our customers interests.

Pickathon Shuttle~last chance for pre-sale tickets, where to catch the bus and more…

The time is now, the place is here…er, well, Pendarvis Farm actually. Now, how do you get there conveniently, safely, and with a low carbon-footprint? You take the max to the ecoShuttle, of course! In addition to a great ride in a biodiesel bus, you also have the chance to win one of several fabulous prizes, and of course you could meet some new friends as you travel to Pickathon in sustainable style!

Many have bought their bus passes already, saving them money and reducing boarding time. Those who pre-order will also be allowed to board first, which reduces your chance of having to wait for the next shuttle if the bus fills. Bus passes are on pre-sale until 11:59pm PST on 8/4/2010. You can request your tickets by following this link:  http://www.ecoshuttle.net/index.php/pickathon10/

For those unable to purchase their passes in advance, you can still buy your passes at the bus. Cost for passes at the door is $7. Cash only.
