The UCOP Sustainable Commuting Survey is open now: Share your commute and you could win a $50 gift card
UCOP’s Sustainability Team is inviting you to participate in the UCOP Commuter Survey, now open through May 15. This survey is required by UC’s Sustainable Practices Policy, and the collected data will be included in UCOP’s Annual Sustainability Report.
By taking this anonymous, 5-minute survey, you’ll be helping to provide an accurate measure of our current commuting practices. Our team will use the aggregated survey data to estimate the total miles UCOP employees from all locations travel each year and the associated greenhouse gas emissions.
This will help us identify areas of improvement in our sustainable transportation programs and measure our progress towards the following goals in UC’s Sustainable Practices Policy:
- Reduce the percentage of employees commuting by single-occupancy vehicles by 10% (relative to 2015 rates)
- Have at least 4.5% of commuter vehicles be zero-emissions
As a small token of appreciation, participants can opt in to enter a drawing for a $50 gift card!**

Thank you for taking the time to help us understand how we can better promote alternative transportation and support a clean-energy future.
For questions, contact Sofia delPiedra.
