Small changes can make a big impact

Clean Cities Top 20 Facts #7:
Over the last 20 years, Clean Cities coalitions have worked with their stakeholders to reduce petroleum consumption by 5 billion gallons. This has been possible not only by deploying alternative fuels and vehicles, but also through fuel economy improvements, such as using more efficient vehicles (including hybrid electric vehicles) and better driving habits.

"FuelEconomy.gov estimates that you could save about $900 per year on fuel by choosing a vehicle that gets 30 mpg instead of 20 mpg."

"Just reducing driving speed can result in significant fuel and cost savings."
