Gus Says: Commute Another Way

By Gus, the Green tree frog and Zoo Mascot

Be Green this May and Bike, Carpool, Skate, Bus or Walk to Work! Since 1956, May has been recognized as National Bike Month. At the Sacramento Zoo, we are encouraging our staff to use any alternative method of transportation besides driving alone in a gas guzzling car. Reduce pollution and traffic while getting some great exercise or bonding with coworkers on your commute.

Why should you bike to work this week?
IT’S FUN
Biking to work builds morale, encourages camaraderie, and is a great way to get active in your community.

IT’S HEALTHY
Active employees are more alert, take fewer sick days, and are more productive.

IT’S GREEN.
Biking reduces your carbon footprint, reduces traffic congestion, and can save you money.
