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.
You & the Environment
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,
coolant, and cleaning solvents contain poisons
that can hurt refuse workers and contaminate
drinking water, lakes, rivers, and oceans.
