Keep Your Vehicle
In Tune With the Environment

• Keep your engine tuned up.

• Check your tires for proper inflation.

• Keep your air conditioner in top condition and have it serviced only by a technician certified competent to handle/recycle refrigerants.

• Do-it-yourselfers: dispose of used motor oil, anti-freeze/coolant, tires, and old batteries properly.

• Observe speed limits.

• Drive gently.

• Avoid excessive idling.

• Remove excess items from the vehicle.

• Plan trips.

Every ten days, motorists who drive with under-inflated tires and poorly maintained engines waste 70 million gallons of gasoline.
Car Care Council

Each year twenty times the amount of oil spilled by the tanker Exxon Valdez in Alaska is improperly dumped into America’s environment by do-it-yourselfers.
Automotive Information Council

Remember, how your car runs, how you drive it, and how its fluids, old parts, and tires are disposed of all have serious consequences on the environment.
