Tour De France GreenMap

  During our Tour de France for Greenmap, we decided to partner with a great company Carpooling.fr . They focus on reducing each persons carbon footprint, by creating an easy platform and community, to find carpools through France.

We posted every time we moved towns. We were able to charge a small fee, and give specific information on who we would want as a potential carpool.

We ended up carpooling a great girl from near Biarritz, to Montpellier. It was a great experience. She was young and respectful and the whole process was very easy.

I suggest you check out Carpooling.fr and potentially think of carpooling next time!!

In Montpellier, we met with the wonderful company Patte Blanche. They offered us pizza, and we discussed different topics from environment to media trends.

From their site (translated to English)

'We live in a unique period of transition where the very future of our planet is threatened by the way we live and consume. We need to change, to grow, collaborate, invent a new mode of development, finally sustainable.

Born in this particular context, the agency Patte Blanche feeds the belief that we can all, in all situations and whatever our action potential to be involved in this change.'

They are basically an agency responsible Consulting & Communication specialized in Sustainability & CSR. Its a great new approach to the original agency business model, and we were very glad to have the opportunity to meet and work with them.
