AirTran looking to reduce footprint

Nothing wrecks a well-maintained carbon footprint faster than taking a cross-country flight. That's why it's nice to see airlines taking a long, hard look at their environmental impact.

AirTran, one of the U.S.'s low-cost carriers, has agreed to join an environmental sustainability program in Atlanta. This program will provide a model for the company to use in AirTran's operations in 60 cities across the country.

No a bad start. Now if they can just figure out how to give me a little bit more leg room, I might be willing to use AirTran to finally take that trip out to Vegas.
