Do a Little... Save a Lot!
Travel wisely

Ride your bike or walk instead of driving. It's a great way to travel and it can help you and the air get in shape.

Vehicles on the road create more than 25 percent of all air pollution nationwide and are a huge source of global climate change emissions.

Combine errands into one trip. Several short trips taken from a cold start can use twice as much fuel as a longer multi-purpose trip covering the same distance when the engine is warm. You will also avoid retracing your route and reduce the distance you travel, not only saving fuel but also wear and tear on your car. Your budget will thank you!

When driving, anticipate stops and slow down gradually. It takes 20 percent less gas to accelerate from 5 mph than from a full stop.

Get rid of the junk in your trunk! The weight of that extra cargo makes engines work harder, burning more gas, releasing more emissions. You get 4 percent less gas mileage for every 100 pounds of excess weight carried in your car. That can cost you about a dollar every time you fill up your gas tank.
