June is Healthy Air Month
Here’s a little pointer from our Climate Action Team. You can help to keep our air healthy by turning your car engine off when idling. In one year, US cars burn 1.4 billion (that’s Billion with a B) gallons of fuel just idling. Trucks burn 1.5 billion gallons idling. We emit 58 million tons of CO2 just sitting there. Think about turning your car off when you are sitting. Also, think about bypassing the drive thru. At McDonald’s alone, drive thru consumers burn about 7.25 million gallons of gas each year.
