Don't Be Idle

Save 240 lbs of carbon

Fact: Idling your vehicle for 10 minutes uses as much fuel as it takes to travel 5 miles.

Act: Use the 20 second rule! If your car is stationary for more than 20 seconds, turn it off.  It uses less gas to turn off and on than it does to let your car idle.

Note: Complete the action above, then download, print and fill out a coupon. Have your child turn in the completed coupon at school.
