Transportation

Bicycling
Residents of the Ecohouse choose to walk or bicycle to class or around campus as much as possible. Some residents do own cars, but they are not normally used for daily transportation. The Ecohouse has a bike rack out front for residents or visitors to use.

Greasel Collective
The Ecohouse sponsors a greasel collective in its garage. Local residents who have properly converted their own diesel cars to run on filtered grease collect grease from local restaurants and bring it to the Ecohouse garage for filtration. The collective helps to intercept waste grease from local restaurants like Casa Nueva from being sent to a landfill. Although the Ecohouse residents do not use the biodiesel in their own cars, the Ecohouse residents support the use of alternative fuels.
