What Can I Do to Help Reduce Air Pollution?

Every time we drive to school, use our heater or air conditioner, clean our windows, or even style our hair, we make choices that affect air pollution. These steps, as well as many others, are things we all can do to help reduce air pollution.

Follow the manufacturer’s instructions on routine maintenance, such as changing the oil and filters, and checking tire pressure and wheel alignment.Avoid excessive idling of your automobile.Use electric or hand-powered lawn care equipment.Be careful not to spill gasoline when filling up your car or gasoline powered lawn and garden equipment.Run dishwashers and clothes washers only when full.Choose environmentally friendly cleaners.Use water-based or solvent free paints whenever possible and buy products that say "low VOC".Seal containers of household cleaners, workshop chemicals and solvents, and garden chemicals to prevent volatile organic compounds from evaporating into the air.Purchase and use low-polluting outboard marine engines and personal watercraft (4-stroke and direct fuel injection 2-stroke outboard marine engines).Advocate for emission reductions from power plants and more stringent national vehicle emission standards.
