Less Carbon Emissions

LESS CARBON EMISSIONS impact of wheel alignment on CO2 emissionsThere is increasing pressure on governments and industry to reduce carbon dioxide emissions (CO2) in order to limit the effects of global warming. UK road transport is responsible for 32.4 Million tonnes of CO2 (MtC) or 21.3% of total UK emissions. In recent years the European haulage industry has focused its' efforts on the introduction of Euro III and more recently Euro IV compliant engines to reduce particulate (soot), carbon monoxide (CO) and Nitrous Oxide (NOX) emissions. New Euro V standards will soon reduce these emission further.However, these new standards make little contribution to improving the situation with regard to Global warming and reducing CO2 emissions. The only real way to do this is to use less fuel or to accelerate the introduction of biofuels. Because accurate wheel alignment will improve the fuel economy of a vehicle, for every litre of fuel saved, there will be a corresponding reduction in (CO2) emissions. Most CO2 reduction initiatives involve extra costs and sacrifices. However Wheel alignment is probably one of few things you can do that will reduce CO2 emissions and save money at the same time.
