What Does #DumpThePump Mean?

National Dump the Pump Day encourages people to skip driving for the day and use public transportation instead. The American Public Transportation Association started it to highlight the environmental and financial benefits of buses, trains, and other transit options. It falls on the third Thursday of June and serves as a reminder that ditching the car even once a week adds up.

How to Use #DumpThePump

Share your commute via public transit, bike, or walking and talk about the savings or experience. If your city has good public transit, this is a great chance to highlight it. If it does not, the conversation about infrastructure is equally valuable.
