Want better gas mileage?

Just make sure your car’s tires are properly inflated. Getting better gas mileage reduces your carbon footprint. As a result, you could save up to 238 kg of CO2 per year.

 Use your power wisely.

Did you know electronics still use power even when they’re turned off? Luckily, there’s no need to unplug your favorite appliances every day. Just use a smart power strip to cut back on wasteful standby power.

 Travel the Earth in harmony.

Did you know that 45% of all car trips are under three miles? This week, challenge yourself to leave your car at home for one trip and take a Bird, bike, or public transit instead.

 Shine bright with a fraction of energy.

Recycle traditional bulbs and opt for LED bulbs (they use 85% less energy). If you want to save even more energy, turn off lights and unplug outlets every time you leave a room.

 Drive like an eco-friendly pro.

Driving habits have a direct impact on a car’s miles per gallon. You could save a lot of CO2 by accelerating slowly, driving the speed limit, and anticipating stops and starts.

 Full Power

Before releasing Birds, ensure they are charged to 100% under My Tasks in the menu of your app.

 Green means Go

Is your power supply light green? That means your Bird is fully charged. Still red? That Bird needs more juice.

 Right on Time

You can check when your Birds are due to be released in the menu of your app.

Don't hold Birds for too long.

Birds should be released no more than 24 hours after capture unless you've received a message from us asking you to hold onto them.

We're here to help.

If you're unable to release on time or are having other issues, reach out to us by sending a message in our HELP section of your app.
