Top 5 Ways to Clean the Air
#1
Tune-ups and tires: Keep your vehicle
in tune, get it inspected, and check
the air pressure in your tires. An under
inflated tire will cause your vehicle to
get poor gas mileage.
The payoff: You’ll increase
the life of your vehicle, get better gas mileage and
clean the air at the same time. Proper
tire inflation can reduce your car’s
emissions by as much as half.
#2
Report smoking vehicles: Call
#SMOKE. The North Central Texas
Council of Governments will advise
vehicle owners of possible emission
problems they may not be aware of in
order to take corrective action.
#3
Share: Carpool or use public transportation.
The payoff: Fewer vehicles on the
roads mean fewer emissions. You’ll
save a few bucks in gas and not have
to search for a parking space.
#4
Don’t top off: Topping off the
tank releases gas vapors in the air
and cancels the benefit of the
pump's anti pollution devices.
#5
Wait ‘til the P.M.: Do not fuel
your vehicle or mow your lawn
during morning hours. Otherwise,
all those emissions bake in the sun
all day causing more ozone.
