Car Pollution Car emissions kill 30,000 people each year in the U.S. Car emissions kill 30,000 people each year in the U.S. In May 2000, Austin Energy planned to reduce nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions by 40% at its Decker and Holly power plants, from 1700 tons per year to less than 1000tpy by By comparison, NOx emissions in Travis county from motor vehicles totaled approximately 30,000 tons per year in the last year for which complete data was available.

Alternate Transportation Options Walking Walking: By walking to work or your destination, you save money on gas and pollute the air less. Also will benefit the persons health. Walking: By walking to work or your destination, you save money on gas and pollute the air less. Also will benefit the persons health. *On average, states spent just 55 cents per person of their federal transportation funds on pedestrian projects in the years studied, less than 1% of their total federal transportation dollars. Average spending on highways came to $72 per person.*

Alternative Transportation Options Bicycling It costs about $50 to build and maintain one space in a bike rack and $500 for a bike locker, yet one car parking space in a parking structure costs about $8,500. Biking accounts for 0.2% of all road miles traveled, and 1% of all trips in the U.S. Some people argue that after all the math biking is still less efficent than driving, this is not true. Bike riding is a gas free form or transportation and although it does require food for the user to be efficient in the end bike riding still benefits the environment and the person using the bike

Alternative Transportation Options Car Pooling/ Public Transportation Public transportation should be a last resort to the other two ideas. It is a smarter way to travel by fossil fuel based cars and buses but should be kept to a minimal if looking to save the earths environment.
