There is no escaping the significant environmental damage that vehicles cause - global climate change, air quality, noise pollution and more.  Over 50% of air pollution comes from transport, this rises to around 80% in cities.

• Cars run on compressed natural gas are cleaner, quieter and emit far lower levels of toxic chemicals, but the number of fast fill stations offering natural gas for fleet users is still miniscule. 
• There are around 2000 cars run on liquified petroleum gas in the UK (compare this to 1 in 10 cars in the Netherlands).
• Electric cars cost just 1p a mile to run, the family vehicle, the Solectria Sunrise can do 373 miles on a single £4 charge; they produce low noise and zero emissions; the source from which the electricity is generated is an issue that needs consideration, but why are these not being hailed as the way forward?  
• Solar vehicles are an environmentalist's dream, zero emissions, small and silent; have you ever seen a solar powered car?

We can all make some changes to our approach to driving, and whilst these may be small, lots of people making small changes can make a significant difference. 

• Regular servicing ensures your car is efficient
• Reduce speed to reduce emissions and save fuel
• Turn off your engine if stuck in traffic.
• Drive less – walk, use public transport or ride a bike
