...you can save more than a ton of CO2 per year by:

• accelerating slowly and smoothly
• driving the speed limit
• maintaining a steady speed
• anticipating your stops and starts
  

Here are some more energy-saving tips when it comes to your automobile:

Maintenance - Keep your car tuned up and running efficiently. Don't forget to replace your air, oil and fuel filters as recommended.
Tires - Keep your tires properly inflated (just this can save 400-700 pounds of CO2 per year!). 
Make your next car a super efficient one (41+ MPG). 
Household fuel efficiency - If your household has two cars and one is used mostly for commuting, make the commuting car a real gas sipper. 
Downsize - Get rid of your car altogether.  Impossible?  Read How to Live Well Without Owning a Car by Chris Balish and it won’t seem so.
