The Pollution Probe Primer

Gas Nozzle

The Canadian Automobile Association has teamed up with Pollution Probe to launch a first–of–its–kind primer to help drivers save fuel and reduce their environmental footprint.

The Primer on Automobile Fuel Efficiency and Emissions explains how automobile fuel consumption can be reduced through the application of driving techniques and technologies that minimize weight, reduce drag, produce power more efficiently, and minimize energy losses in vehicle systems.

A myth among drivers about reducing car emissions is that individuals can’t make much of a difference – that we must wait for advanced technology to do the job. The Primer on Automobile Fuel Efficiency and Emissions shows that this isn’t true.

Visit the CAA Primer website to view or download a copy of The Primer on Automobile Fuel Efficiency and Emissions, and to learn more about the science surrounding fuel efficiency.
