Informative Speech On Carpooling

When I think back to my high school days, my first car is always part of the memories. It wasn't a pretty car and didn't get good mileage but it was a perfect car for the speed-happy teen I was back in the 70s. I called my car "The Tank" and told my friends I wished I could just drive over cars in my way. I was 16 or 17 years old when my sister's used car was handed down to me. That's how it works in big families. Everything from clothing to bikes to cars and sometimes boy or girlfriends is passed down. My sister was in college by then and had moved up to a used Rambler. The Tank was a 1963 Ford Galaxy 500. I don't know what color it was originally but probably a brighter shade of what my Mom called aqua. The Tank was pretty faded by the time

Carpooling is a wonderful way to decrease the high levels of carbon emissions and move us towards a much much much more clean planet earth. Not only is using a carpool an effective way to save the environment it's also easy to do! All you will need is have a good coworker that is in the same town close to your home that you give a ring ring and request that begin carpooling and that's that! So, how does carpooling help you? Well first, we'll start with why sharing rides is good for your savings account because it definitely does. Reason number one: it saves you a fortune on gas because just think about it for a second, what's the amount of gas commuting heading to work all week? Here, I'll answer for you: a lot! But, if you carpool with someone the large quantity of fuel you go through is greatly shrunk which saves you a pretty penny. You better remember to switch in and out with the persons you get a ride with so it's all fair. What are some more upsides to ride sharing out there? Secondly, ride sharing saves our earth from huge amounts of pollution that our cars puts into our atmosphere and that greatly reduces the strain on the environment. Then, with the reduced demand on fuel from carpooling the high prices for gasoline would be extremely reduced and also drilling for fossil fuels would slow which would be a huge relief on the environment which is great! I mean, we were only blessed with a single planet to

Not because I am not fearless, or maybe I should say," not just because I am not fearless," but because I crave variety in my work day. Just the thought of doing the same thing day in and day out drives me mad. If you are considering breaking into stock car racing be prepared for a life of monotony. The first trait that you need in order to become a successful stock car racer is: Trait Number 1 - A craving for routine Stock car racers drive around and around in a circle over and over again, every day. They do not drive up hill nor do they drive down hill. They do not drive in snow nor do they drive in fog. Their route is not scenic. Stock car race drivers do not have a view of the beach, or the mountains or the plain. Stock car racers drive everyday on a circular track. They may drive on different race tracks, but each race track looks similar to the other. Becoming a stock car driver is not a job for those easily bored by routine. Trait Number 2 - A really good insurance policy We all know that driving a stock car is a dangerous job.
