Good news - bad news
New cars = less smog forming pollutants
Cars = fewer dead horses
1/8th of smog still due to cars
1 litre of gasoline = 2.3 kg CO2

CO2 from cars is on the rise
Driving is up
Efficiency is down
Passenger km travelled (1976-2000, millions of km) Average fuel efficiency (1977-2002, L/100km)

What can we do? Lots!
Buy a fuel-efficient car
Drive fuel efficiently
Drive less

Slow down - save gas
kilometres per hour
Fuel efficiency drops 10% for every 10 kph above 100.
Going 120 instead of 100 is like paying 20% extra at the pump.
Slow down and save!
