This document discusses car sharing and the collaborative economy. It notes that the sharing economy is based on access rather than ownership of assets like time, space and skills. Regarding car sharing specifically, it provides statistics on car sharing programs in various cities, including that one car sharing vehicle can replace up to 10 privately owned cars. It advocates for cities and public transit agencies to actively support car sharing through strategies like prioritizing charging infrastructure for electric shared vehicles and integrating car sharing into urban development plans.
