U.S. Government's Fuel Economy Site

Almost all of the cars and trucks we drive run on fuels derived from oil. Oil is a non-renewable resource, and while there is some debate as to how long this resource will last, we will eventually have to find new ways to power highway vehicles. Until other alternatives are developed, it makes sense to use fossil resources such as oil more efficiently to buy time to develop new and better energy sources and to make the transition to these sources smoother and less expensive.

Global Warming Explained

After years of debate, a near consensus among the world's scientists has concluded that we are warming the planet, and unless we take steps now to curb global warming, our way of life, our planet, and our children are all in grave danger.

Evidence shows that man-made greenhouse gas emissions cause Global Warming. But did you also know that the average American causes 40,000 pounds of harmful CO2 emissions to be released into the Earth's atmosphere each year? That's a whole lot of gas!

There are simple actions we can all take to help curb Global Warming.
