Keep your air filter and catalytic converter clean. This will reduce fuel consumption and keep your car's pollution control devices in effective working order. Consider fuel-efficient cars. When buying a new or used car, check its fuel efficiency. At Home and At the Office Conserve electricity.
Electricity generation can be a major source of air pollution.
Save electricity by using energy-efficient lighting and by turning off lights and appliances when not in use. Replacing a common incandescent light bulb with an energy-efficient fluorescent bulb saves 45 watts. Purchase energy-efficient appliances. In the summer, raise the level on your air-conditioner a few degrees, and in the winter, lower the level on your heater a few degrees. Participate in your local utility's energy conservation programs.
