Day 61: The Road to Sustainability - "Performance, that's the name of the game..."


So, the lesson to be learned from the above video is to pump up your tires to maximize performance! There was even an article on this topic in the Vancouver's free newspaper, Metro, today! 

Barack Obama also has a little something to say about the topic:


According to Natural Resources Canada (thanks for the link Ed!) properly inflated tires not only make your ride safer, but also saves you money on gas and thus reducing your emissions. The proper level for your tires can be found in the owner's manual or near the driver's door (contact your dealer or local shop if you're lost!) 

Once again, burning fossil fuels and driving is will never be sustainable, but due to our vast country sometimes it is unavoidable. So, try to limit your driving time and when you do drive be sure that you inflate your tires to the proper pressure, don't idle and drive the speed limit!
