Cleaner vehicles = cleaner air
Nearly 70 percent of our regions’ air pollution comes from motor vehicle emissions. Other than not driving at all, choosing cleaner, more fuel-efficient vehicles can significantly reduce emissions of greenhouse gases, air toxics, and other pollutants. And today there are more air-friendly automotive options available than ever – such as hybrids, alternatively-fueled, bi-fueled, or very fuel-efficient cars and trucks. Making clean-air vehicle choices has never been easier.
