Support Temple's carbon neutrality commitment through personal action

To achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, we need every owl to give a hoot. Switching from single-occupancy vehicle commuting helps to lower carbon emissions, protect local air quality, and reduce traffic congestion. Choosing a sustainable transportation method to travel to work such as biking, walking, or riding public transit is one of the best and most impactful ways to reduce your contributions to climate change.

Commuter Benefits

Temple University supports low carbon commuting through the WageWorks program.  WageWorks enables full time employees of Temple University to pay for public transportation and vanpool with pre-tax money.  Visit Temple's Human Resource's Benefits page for more information on enrolling in WageWorks.

Employee bike discount 

Temple University offers a discount on bikes for all its employees. Save up to 30% on a new Breezer, Tuesday, or Fuji bicycle and green your commute. Visit this page for more information and instructions to claim your sustainable benefit today.
