Losing weighs help to reduce Fuel Consumption? (25th Oct 2006)

CHICAGO - Want to spend less at the pump? Lose some weight. That's the implication of a new study that says Americans are burning nearly 1 billion more gallons of gasoline each year than they did in 1960 because of their expanding waistlines. Simply put, more weight in the car means lower gas mileage.

     - our Green Peace friends will also remind you that less burning is also good for the environment.

Less fuel burned = less toxic discharge to the environment
that's
Environmentally Friendly!

P.S. Don't carry additional stuffs in your vehicles unless you need them; eg.
 1.  Golf bag which you use only once a week?
 2.  Overweight passengers - encourage them to lose weight to enjoy your friendly service; or else they can use public transport!

2.  Take that walk to the store

Keep Fit and Healthy - Beside eating well (balanced diets); sleeping well and a little exercise, take that walk to the supermarket! Leave the cars behind. That will help you save $ on fuel and improve on Health!

P.S. Let the kids walk to school if it is within walking distance; and let them carry their own school bags. Surely our domestic helpers will not follow our kids (males) when they are called to serve the nation (National Service).
Train them young, and teach them to take responsibilities as they grow up. Like they say, "it is better to teach them HOW to fish than to Give them fish".

Good for your lungs, heart, legs,...the whole being!
that's Looking Good!


 3.  Don't get lost, driving around in circles

Plan your route! Don't go unscheduleded city-tours by getting lost or missing the same turns more than 3 times! MPG (miles per gallon) is a lot lower for city driving (lost in the city) than driving on highways!

Will probably never get into a hustle with anyone for that car park lot;
that's
Being Friendly!


 4.  Timely maintenance for oil change, spark plugs, wheels rotation, right volume of air in the tyres

It does not save to skim or extend routine car maintenance servicing.

 
a. Dirty engine oil does not help for smooth transmission; may make wear and tear on the engine parts worse!

 b. Worn our spark plugs do not provide the best sparking due to ear and tear; that will cause poor spark and poor burning (more unburned fuel too)

 c.  Balancing the wheels (uneven wears and tears for the front and rear wheels)

 e.  Tyres pressure - don't wait for regular maintenance - pump it up when needed!

 f.  Others - your vehicles may require some retuning or belt adjustment too.

Well maintained vehicles are also kind to your friendly car mechanics
that's helping employment!


 5.  Question your overweight friends,

"How come I am paying the same ticket costs when I am half you weight! I am subsidizing your bus fares. Do you know that staying trim and fit is good for the environment too?"

Perhaps there will be measurements like kg-km/litre vs just km/litre?
 

Isn't it kool to move around with friends who have the Hollywood (or Bollywood) builds?
increase that Self Esteem
