Help the environment and your pocketbook--use less gas!
Posted June 12th, 2008 by amanda
We are all feeling the pinch when it comes to gas prices these days. More people are using public transportation to get around, which is great if you have the option. But not all of us do. And not all of us can run out and buy a hybrid, either. We need strategies, then, to increase our fuel efficiency. Click here for some tips from the Environmental Protection Agency. My favorite myth-breaker? Apparently, idling for 10-30 seconds uses more gas than turning the car off and restarting it... I always thought it was the other way around!
