April 7 marks World Health Day, a time to highlight the connection between our planet and our health. One simple yet effective change is limiting the idling of our vehicles. Reducing unnecessary engine idling not only benefits the planet but also improves our overall health. Below are some useful tips to help your limit idling:
- Turn Off Your Engine: if you anticipate being stopped for more than 30 seconds, except in traffic, turn off your vehicle.
- Use Smart Driving Habits: plan your trips efficiently to avoid unnecessary stops and wait times.
- Spread Awareness: encourage others to reduce idling and educate them on the benefits for health and the environment.
Limiting vehicle idling is a small but powerful step toward a healthier planet and a healthier you.
