As Drivers Face Record Gas Prices Prior to Memorial Day,
Summer Travel, Alliance to Save Energy Offers Fuel-Efficiency Tips
Washington D.C, May 23, 2007 – With gas prices already hitting a national record of $3.22 a gallon prior to Memorial Day and the summer driving season, the Alliance to Save Energy offers fuel-efficiency tips to help drivers curb costs – and the emissions that contribute to climate change (www.ase.org/content/news/detail/3713).
The Alliance also encourages consumers to test their “Energy IQ” and take the 6° of Energy Efficiency Challenge at www.sixdegreechallenge.org to learn how their energy use and energy waste affects their communities, the nation, and the planet – and how being more energy-efficient contributes to our nation’s economic and energy security.
And the Alliance provides information (in both English and Spanish) on valuable federal income tax credits for purchasers of hybrid-electric or diesel vehicles, based on a vehicle’s efficiency and fuel savings, at www.ase.org/taxcredits.
