Paragon Software Systems "Cleans Up" Corporate Vehicle Fleets
Greening the Environment With Transportation Routing & Scheduling Solutions
(firmenpresse) - DALLAS, TX -- (Marketwired) -- 07/09/13 -- In a recent article entitled, "De-Gassing the Soft Drink Biz," the Sierra Club mentions its launch of the Future Fleet Campaign to "clean up corporate vehicle fleets, starting with PepsiCo, Coca-Cola, and Dr Pepper Snapple Group, which together own and operate more than 100,000 vehicles." ., a leader in vehicle solutions, understands their goals and is best poised to help fleets lower fuel usage, which in turn reduces carbon emissions that harm the air and environment.
In the article, the Sierra Club reports, "Oil use accounts for more than 40 percent of our climate-disrupting pollution, and the biggest customers for oil are large companies guzzling huge amounts of fuel -- including oil from tar sands refineries. By getting these three corporate fleets to prioritize fuel efficiency and get off of tar sands oil, we can reduce the demand for oil, curb emissions, increase transportation choices, and slow the development of tar sands."
Commenting on this, William Salter, President & CEO of Paragon Software Systems, Inc., said, "Consumers are more focused on protecting the environment, especially for future generations. One way to do that is to lower fuel usage by driving less. Business fleets can assist these goals by optimizing their routes."
