Starting with this article, we will be featuring "Green Tips". These are actions any business or person can adopt which will have a positive environmental impact - and keep us Eco-conscious.
GREEN TIPS FOR FUEL CONTROL & DRIVING
- Use Cruise Control - maintaining a constant speed saves gas.
- Consider Speed Limits - speeding (as we all do) uses up more gas. Most vehicles maximize
fuel efficiency at 50 mph.
- Maintain Your Vehicle - change air filters and spark plugs on a scheduled basis.
- Remove roof racks when not using.
- Maintain proper tire pressure - low pressure costs lots in wasted fuel.
- Reduce Vehicle's Weight - remove heavy objects from trunk and rear seats, i.e. sand bags
used during the winter months.
- Consolidate Your Driving - organize your to-do list and plan ahead to minimize time and
distance.
