A

Fight climate change while traveling

Whether you’re commuting or vacationing, travel can cause a lot of pollution, for most vehicles are powered by burning gas. As the pie chart illustrates, the transportation sector accounted for a major share of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions in 2022. Tourism also contributes to climate pollution, with transportation making up the majority of tourism-related emissions.

But that doesn’t mean you have to stop traveling for fun altogether. You can make a difference by focusing on greener transportation options and fuel efficiency.  

·Use Greener Transportation

Air travel emissions can be reduced by choosing direct flights or taking the train or a bus instead of flying. Even if a bus is gas-powered, it’s better for the climate than a car because it can transport many people with a single engine. If a car is the best option, consider replacing your traditional car with an electric or hybrid vehicle at the end of its life. (And drive the speed limit!). Clean energy helps avoid additional emissions.

·Focus on Efficiency

If available, minimizes fuel use, saving money and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.  Drive smart and improve your fuel economy by going easy on the brakes and gas and keeping your car well-maintained.
