What You Can Do

Drive less. Use public transportation, carpool, walk, bike, or however else you can avoid using your car.
When you fill up your car, go to a station that has vapor recovery nozzles--they help cut down on air pollution in a big way.
Keep your tires properly inflated, and don't top off the tank.
