ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP – KEYS TO GREEN®

Having been in business for more than half a century, we know that leadership is not a short-term proposition. For us, environmental stewardship is a long-term approach to addressing those parts of the world that we touch with our business, and involving ourselves with those issues over which we have some influence. It's an approach built upon a commitment to ensure the sustainability of our business, as well as the sustainability of the world we all share. Among the highlights:

  • We operate the world's largest fleet of fuel-efficient vehicles;
  • Our carbon offset program enables customers to offset the greenhouse gas emissions associated with the average vehicle rental;
  • We have a fleet of 8,000 hybrid vehicles, largest in the industry; and
  • Our car sharing and vanpooling programs help customers reduce traffic congestion, fuel consumption and vehicle emissions.
