You & the Environment
Owning and riding a vehicle can be enjoyable,
but you must do your part to protect the
environment.
Choose Sensible Cleaners
Use a biodegradable detergent when you wash
your vehicle. Avoid aerosol spray cleaners that
contain chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) which
damage the atmosphere's protective ozone
layer.
Recycle Wastes
Put oil and other toxic wastes in approved
containers and take them to a recycling centre.
Call your local or state office of public works or
environmental services to find a recycling centre
in your area, and to get instructions on how to
dispose of non-recyclable wastes. Do not place
used engine oil in the trash, or pour it down a
drain or on the ground. Used oil, petrol, and
cleaning solvents contain poisons that can hurt
refuse workers and contaminate drinking water,
lakes, rivers, and oceans.
