MONTREAL, QUEBEC -- 11/26/09 --
Pollution Probe, a Canadian organization specializing in environmental issues, the Canadian Automobile Association (CAA), and CAA-Quebec are introducing new tools for motorists who are concerned about doing their part to reduce emissions by saving fuel. The official release of the Primer on Automobile Fuel Efficiency and Emissions - a first-of-its-kind environmental resource - will also provide an opportunity to officialise a partnership between CAA and Natural Resources Canada for disseminating information and raising awareness.

What?
Information and solutions excerpted from the Primer on Automobile
Fuel Efficiency and Emissions, a first-of-its-kind educational resource
developed by Pollution Probe, with the support of CAA and NRCan, that
demonstrates that while automobiles are part of the problem, motorists

To reduce greenhouse gases and... your fuel bill!
