I Ride Green Campaign
The U.S. Department of Transportation also reports that American adults use vehicles even when they are traveling ½ mile or less. These short trips culminate in 15 million miles every single day. IXG’s I Ride Green campaign is combating these alarming statistics by mobilizing children and adults to Ride Green. Riding green is simple, but replicated nationwide has the potential to significantly reduce the tons of toxic fumes polluting our air with the added benefit of promoting health. There are two ways to Ride Green. The first, as a rule, choose a non-motorized means of transportation, such as bike riding or rollerblading and get the added physical health benefit. Second, when you absolutely have to utilize motorized transportation opt to carpool, when safe, or take public transportation. IXG is calling on businesses and corporations to provide I Ride Green sports bottles to student athletes in their communities. Please inquire at service@ixg.com .
I Play Green
According to the Container Recycling Institute, an incredible 200 billion disposable drink containers are trashed annually. Many of these contaminate our playing fields, landfills, and oceans. The I Play Green campaign is combating these alarming statistics by mobilizing sports organizations and athletes to go green by September 2012 to coincide with the next Olympic Games. Playing green is simple. IXG is seeking the support of coaches, community leaders, and sports organizations to promote the use of reusable drink containers for all games and practices, create recycling opportunities at fields, utilize eco-friendly field management products, and advocate for installation of water fountains, if not currently available. IXG is calling on businesses and corporations to provide I Play Green sports bottles to student athletes in their communities. Please inquire at service@ixg.com .
