Carpooling is a way of sharing transportation. The concept of carpooling is by no means a new one. From finding co-workers to commute with via the staff noticeboard, to sharing the school run, the idea of catching communal lifts to save money and ease congestion has been around long time before.





On the one hand, carpooling is very good for the environment because the fewer cars on the road, the less pollution there is. In addition, carpooling is good for us because it helps to have a better relationship and communication with everyone, especially if you're carpooling with your co-workers. Besides, nowadays in Europe carpooling is becoming very popular thanks to an app called "BlaBlaCar" with which you can take people in your car and earn money.



On the other hand, there are more and more people who have their own car and prefer to travel alone. In addition, many times we are afraid to use "BlaBlaCar" because we don’t know the people with whom we will travel. Moreover, many times car sharing is not good for us because, for example, if we travel in someone else's car to go to work and that person is late, then you will be late for work too. If you use your own car, you won't have this problem.



In conclusion, carpooling is very good because it helps the planet. In my opinion, people should do it more often.
