In order to encourage individuals to change their energy consumption habits to actively address climate change, a Green Commuter Tax Rebate will be created to provide a financial incentive for commuters who once a week use a green commuting alternative. Individuals who use public transportation instead of automobiles once a week or individuals who bike or walk to work once a week will be entitled to the Green Commuter Tax Rebate. The Green Commuter Tax Rebate will reward individuals who actively change their transportation habits once every week of the year. In addition, individuals who qualify for the Green Commuter Tax Rebate will receive a pin from the White House acknowledging their positive actions to address climate change by becoming positive climate changers.
