There are a few small things we can all do when we drive our cars to help reduce the amount of fuel we burn and so cut down on CO2 emissions.
The secret is to help reduce the amount of work your engine has to do because the greater the workload, the more fuel is burned so the higher the CO2 emissions.
You will also save money on running costs so it can be doubly rewarding.
