1. Vehicles emit 1 million TONS of C02 per day.
Vehicle pollution kills 30,000 people in the US per
year.
A human lifespan is reduced by 1-2 years from
inhaling polluted air.
How can we help?
Limit the number of vehicles driven and improve the
efficiency of vehicles.
Instead of driving, walk, ride a bike, or take a bus or
a train.
