Unbeknownst to many, even an idling car is guilty of using up valuable fuel, not only unnecessarily wasting this expensive resource, but also causing danger to the environment and a risk to the health of many others.

Vehicle exhaust also contributes to unhealthy air quality and the presence of smog. These factors have resulted in ailments like asthma, emphysema and chronic bronchitis, and even premature death. Children and the elderly have been affected the most, but the environment itself is also impacted. Idle vehicles emit pollutants like carbon dioxide. An engine that idles for 10 minutes yields 90 grams of this gas and consumes 0.14 liters of fuel, (commercial vehicles produce even more). These fumes could be greatly reduced if all cars stopped idling their engines by a minute less ever day. Some countries холодильник ariston have even instituted regulations already aimed at doing just that. One environmental organization has established a plan to end idling altogether. Widespread practices like these will help to decrease pollution in the air and the threat of global warming.
