Take The Pledge

and provide cleaner air for future generations...

I Pledge To...

Always drive within 5 MPH of the posted speed limits when it’s safe to do so.
Always allow at least a car length per 10 MPH from the vehicle in front of me to reduce braking and accelerating which create more emissions.
Always slow down well in advance of stop lights/signs and accelerate slowly from stops. This reduces emissions, saves wear and tear on your brakes, and is safer for pedestrians.
Not drive around parking lots to find a space a few feet closer to the store/door. This not only reduces emissions, saves money on gas, and most of us can use the exercise.
Not idle and warm up my vehicle during cold weather. This is a tough one. I personally like to allow my car to run/warm up while I scrape the windows. But I’m willing to forgo that so my Grandchildren can breathe cleaner air.
Reduce unnecessary trips by being organized and better planning.
Carpool whenever possible (and allowable).
Plan/Attend online meetings and conference calls instead of on site meetings whenever practical.

I Pledge To...

Turn my thermostat down a few degrees in the winter and up in summer.
Turn lights off when not in use (my Grandfather’s favorite).
Use “manual tools” (rakes, shovels, etc.) instead of gas powered tools whenever practical.
Recycle responsibly.
Not burn brush and/or leaves
Supervise camp fires and make sure they are completely out before going to bed.
