HELP REDUCE AIR POLLUTION EVERY DAY:
1) Drive less when possible: carpool, vanpool, use public transportation, bike or walk. Combine errands into one trip.
2) Conserve electricity at home, at work, and everywhere.
3) Don't burn yard waste, brush, etc. Burning garbage and other non-vegetative materials is illegal, and all outdoor burning is illegal in some areas of North Carolina.
4) Keep cars, boats, lawnmowers, and other engines well-tuned. Keep tires properly inflated and wheels aligned to save gas and reduce pollution.
5) Refuel carefully to avoid spilling fuel, and don't top off.
6) Use electric or hand-powered lawn equipment whenever possible. Reduce mowing by landscaping with natural areas and planted beds.
