Park
View Homes is dedicated to reducing emissions
within our fleet of vehicles by cutting down on
idling which reduces gas emissions while also
saving fuel costs. It's the smart thing to do
for our community, our families, for our environment!
Leaving a vehicle idling - it's something we often
do without thinking about it.
It's about our health Car,
truck and bus emissions are the single largest
source of smog-causing pollutants in Ontario.
Children
are particularly vulnerable to air pollution,
because they inhale more air per pound of body
weight. Exposure
to most auto pollutants is much higher inside
a vehicle, than at the roadside. Every
year, 16,000 Canadians die prematurely from air
pollution.
It's about our environment Climate
change is caused by greenhouse gases. Greenhouse
gases are mostly generated by burning fossil fuels.
Industrialized
nations have produced almost all the greenhouse
gases now present in the atmosphere, and their
emissions continue to grow. We
can stabilize our climate by acting now to reduce
greenhouse gas emissions. Cutting down on idling
vehicles is a great place to begin!
It's about saving money Ten
seconds of idling uses more gas than restarting
an engine. Reduced
idling by 5 minutes a day saves us over $100 per
year and supports the growth and stability of
our company, while passing the saving on to our
customers.
