E-tools to spur change

Rising fuel and energy prices, general economic concerns and new energy regulations are making people see things in a new light. From light bulbs to washing machines and family cars, attitudes are changing. People are thinking more carefully about making fewer journeys, how they drive and buying more fuel efficient vehicles.

Below you will find a selection of tools and calculators to help you make decisions concerning the following issues: fuel economy, energy efficiency, renewable fuels, car tax, car sharing/pooling, car and bicycle hire schemes, etc. If you know of other tools, please help us to improve the selection.


Carpoolworld

Carpoolworld.com is an Internet web site that provides a free public on-line trip-matching service. Users log in and enter the street addresses of their origins (homes) and destinations (places of work), and then the system instantly shows them a list of similar trips from the stored database. The trips are also displayed visually on detailed maps. The users can contact each other by phone or e-mail to make ride-sharing arrangements. The service is primarily intended for commuters, but will work for any type of trip.
