Need some statistical figures I can't find
I know I've seen these figures posted somewhere but can't recall.
You know, the
"If everyone increased thier driving efficiency just 10% it would save x billions of barrels"
or more statistical information like
"If everyone's vehicle just did 5MPG better then we'd be independant from the Middle-East. An individual can save thousands of $$ each year in gas savings"
Are there any reference links that might be provided?
My plan is to make a poster to hang at the proverbial water cooler at work and a few other select places. Everyone constantly complains about gas prices and ignorantly just keep pumping at the same consumption rate.
"My car just does what it does and it cain't do no more" attitude.
I need to make the message easy to digest for most folks, and nothing nutty or activist like "Save the Earth, Dump your SUV and drive more efficiently"
Not that the statement is all wrong, but it needs to be appealing so even the poor SAP who just laid down the $$$ for his new Explorer can get exited about it.
Almost everyone is blissfully ignorant for not knowing they could save some big $$ in driving what they currently drive, if they only were aware, and willing to make an effort.
Perhaps the effort part is asking too much?
Any poster ideas?
What would YOUR poster say?
Jason,
I'll also be sure to include a GreenHybrid reference to more information on detailed driving tips.
There hasen't ever been a larger group of experienced fuel efficient drivers than us "Hi-Birds" for the dumb masses to learn from!
Efficient drivers do it better.
 1003 miles a tank personal record. 74MPG calculated. HCH1 CVT
