Ground Transport

Al Gore chooses thebookingroom

By BBT / 30 January 2007

 



 


U.S vice president and environmental campaigner Al Gore enhanced the green credentials of carbon neutral chauffeur company thebookingroom by using two of its Lexus hybrid cars during a recent visit to Glasgow.  Al Gore, who recently released "An Inconvenient Truth," a film demonstrating the effects of global warming, was the key speaker at "What Our Future Holds - the major issues affecting our world."



The hybrid cars used during his visit have rechargeable energy systems on-board, and produce considerably lower emissions due to their smaller-sized engines.  thebookingroom CEO Michael O'Hare said: "This visit highlights thebookingroom's strong focus on the environment and
demonstrates the determination that we have to do as much as we possibly can to reduce carbon emissions.  thebookingroom  sees 2007 as a fundamental year in pushing forward our green agenda and securing a better environment for all."
