Coca-Cola is not known for its environmental practices; however it's replaced 10 of it's traditional gas-guzzling trucks with hybrid trucks that will cover delivery routes in southern Florida. The company plans to replace 142 trucks nation wide with hybrids within the next few weeks. The hybrid trucks cut emissions by 32 percent and fuel consumption by 36 percent. For five years Coca-Cola has been working a Cleveland-based industrial manufacture called Eaton to develop the trucks.
It's amazing when a company takes steps to protect the environment without the government forcing the initiatives. Coca-Cola has taken a small step toward becoming more environmentally responsible and that's a good thing.
