Eco Chicago Limo Service Helps Proms Go Green

May 12, 2011 - PRLog -- Chicago, Illinois – http://www.goinggreenlimousine.com It’s prom season, which means young ladies everywhere are checking their dresses one more time for the perfect fit and young men are deciding between a wrist corsage or a conventional pin-on. Traditionally, prom is an evening of elegance and sophistication, from tuxedos to stretch limos.

Today, tradition is taking on a bit of a new trend as current prom goers tend to be more environmentally aware. Choosing a stretch limo for multiple couples is actually an eco option, since you are reducing the number of vehicles on the road. However, prom goers of today can take pride in choosing a limo company that offsets its carbon footprint.

Going Green Limousine is the premiere eco limo service in Chicago and as part of their stretch limo rentals they perform carbon offsetting. For every stretch limo rented, Going Green Limousine donates a percentage of the proceeds to a local environmental cause, such as Chicago Gateway Green. To learn more about Gateway Green, visit http://www.gatewaygreen.org/.

Additionally, you can reduce your carbon footprint even further by choosing to rent one of Going Green Limousine’s luxurious hybrid sedans or hybrid and flex-fuel SUVs. Hybrid sedans and hybrid SUVs are perfect for the single prom couple, and the flex-fuel SUVs are large enough to accommodate up to 3 couples sharing a ride to the prom.

Whether you are reducing your carbon footprint with hybrids or offsetting it with stretch limos, choosing an eco limo service is a great way to enjoy the tradition of a chauffeured prom night while showing your responsibility to the planet.

Rebecca Schmuck, owner of Going Green Limousine, says, “Prom is fun. It’s about fancy dresses, chauffeured limos, and fine dining. But today’s high school kids are more than just kids. They have a better understanding of the climate threat we face and they seem determined to help be a part of the solution for tomorrow. I think anyone going to the prom this year would like to know they have an eco choice for limo service.”

Fleet manager Jess Sapp of Going Green Limousine reinforces that the young adults he has taken to proms so far this year like the idea of going to prom with a reduced carbon footprint. “They have just as much fun in our stretch limos or hybrid vehicles as they would in anybody else’s limo, but they are able to make a social statement as well.”
